Yep that is spot on.
I think it's most often considered to be 165° in the breast and 175° in the center of the thigh.

Interesting. I'd seen this chart before but never really considered the fact that since I always rest my chicken, even if I pull it at 150° wrap even loosely with foil and rest for 10 minutes it's still safe. I've always been a little nervous as sometimes I do pull it at 157°-159° and just hope it'll carry to 165°. Good to know. Thanks Dave!If you like you poultry "more rare", there is a FSIS time/temperature table for the reduction of salmonella...
Get the internal temperature of the meat to the degree of doneness you like, then hold at that temperature for the specified time or longer...
It is mandatory your thermometers be calibrated for accurate readings....... Dave

150F is my go to temp for breasts, get kind of chalky at any higher imo.
