Thermometers?

[mark]

We love our Thermapen. It's going on 4 years old and we haven't even replaced the battery.

The company has a a whole line of quality thermometers.

This guy?

I wonder if there's an indwelling that I could use.

[Mik]

That’s what I have. If you want something to keep on the steak I like my Inkbird. Has Bluetooth so you can monitor on your phone, handy for long cooks. Has 4 probes so you can monitor the temp in your smoker or oven too.

Also I would avoid ThermPro products. The ones I’ve had have been unreliable.

Inkbird IBT-4XS

Thanks!

It is a wired one. I’m not convinced of the longevity of wireless probes at 400F. The wires are kind of a pain but I’m used to it.

I have an indwelling wired probe that I use for turkey, etc.

That might do the job.

Mik, are the probes wireless? I’ve tried using the probes in a slow cook on the grill, but they always wind up coming into contact with a hot surface that blows the lead.

Yes, that's the one. The One version (more $) is faster but I find 2 to 3 seconds completely acceptable.

BTW, I have a NIST certified thermometer. I think a new one is between $500-$600.

I use a thermapen too.

I made steak last night. Convinced me to get a new thermometer.

Overcooked it a bit (thermometer was inaccurate), but it sure is pretty....

Nice looking muscle.

It was gorgeous - just overcooked. It came out medium, maybe even a bit beyond that. Thermometer inserted into the side of the steak said 120, and I set it to rest at that time.

[Mik]

Yeah, get a Thermapen.

I was looking on Amazon, seems that there's no such beast (on Amazon).

THere's "ThermoPro", but not Thermapen or Thermopen.
