Hot or cold food held at improper temperature (corrected on site)

Inspector notes: Observed cooked pork ribs in a hot insulated carrier underneath prep table at time of inspection. Ribs had an internal temperature of 115-120*F via probe thermometer at time of inspection. Explained to person in charge (PIC) that except during preparation, cooking, cooling or when time is used as a control all TCS foods must be maintained at 135°F or above. All TCS foods improperly hot held were reheated to 165°F at time of inspection. Recommended removal of hot insulated carrier from establishment because the intended purpose is to not hold at 135*F or above for a long period of time. PIC will use standing electric hot holding cabinet to store pork ribs
