What's it gonna be?

Thermapen

Richard Fl · November 2012

First a thermapen then a plate setter.

bud812 · November 2012

Adj. rig combo.

YEMTrey · November 2012

Platesetter.

Thank God we're free so don't have to make this choice! But if I had to, I would take a second Egg. You can always use an old hubcap to go indirect. Thermapen close second place.

@Fred19Flintstone - I'm calling you if I find a magic lamp.

SmokeyPitt · November 2012

Tin foil.

BENTE · November 2012

platestter then thermapen

henapple · November 2012

Ordered my thermapen this weekend. If you order a desert storm model, tan with the American flag, $9 goes to an injured soldier program.

Priorities man! I told Wilma we're getting a small to go along with our large and that's final! OK, for some reason she went along with it because I'm not wealthy. The point is I got a pair!

My accessory would be beer! Is this an accessory or a necessity?

KY. Kentucky or jelly?

Lifetime supply of quality lump! Without the egg is just a really big and fancy paperweight.

I guess I'm not understanding why the thermapen is so valuable. I have a wirless thermometer. I don't have to even go out to my deck to see what temp my meat is at the remote tells me right in the kitchen.

I'm not knocking the thermapen but I guess I don't understand how it's superior to a normal wireless kit.

Skiddymarker · November 2012

@Stargazer, the Thermapen is the only way to tell if a steak or chicken breast is cooked, assuming you are doing more than one. If you have 30 wings on a grid, the Thermapen can tell you in less than a minute how they are all doing, your food probe can't tell you about any of them. It is a different tool for a different job. The value is the <3 second accurate reading. You don't have to hold it with a glove or pair of pliers waiting for it to read.

Wireless probe is great for a pork butt, but when it reads 195, is the whole butt there? Thermapen confirms temp anywhere in the butt in seconds. It is a great tool.

Skiddy - that would be 90 seconds, not a minute, to check 30 wings - stop exaggerating. :D

Thank you for the explanation. Makes a ton of sense to me now. I do a lot of roasts on my egg so I get a lot of use from my wireless probe. I'll have to keep and eye out for them on Amazon and look for a sale.

The best you are going to find is the $69 open-box deal they do every few months. Otherwise, used on ebay/craigslist. If you have Amazon Prime, you can save on the shipping and usually grab it for $89. Basic colors only, though. If you want one of the Special Edition ones, I have only seen them on the thermoworks site.

nolaegghead · November 2012

and don't forget some colors read faster than others

smokesniffer · November 2012

I'll take Little Steven's knowledge. ;)

SamFerrise · November 2012

Just give me a free bag of Wicked Good. I make all my own tools and accessories. I spend my good money my favorite grilling meats.

Baysidebob · November 2012

One more vote for Thermapen. I have all the others but you can jury-rig raised grids and all that other stuff.

Howdy, Stranger!
