I just saw Alton Brown (Fidel's hero) on food Network doing a pork sepcial. He had the original red thermapen. I have heard it is super fast and better than any other color. Is this true?

I vote Red/Orange.Easier to keep up with.
-
An orange and blue one would would be great for Georgia eggers
-
Not the original. They are beige and I have the 3rd one ever made.
-
Everyone knows that red is so yesterday. Yellow is the new red. The fastest and most durable.
-
It may be the fastest Thermapen color but it won't hold a candle to a Therma Plus.
Alton Brown's OK but I'm sure I have seen Johnny Trigg with a Therma Plus. The little meat probe is about twice as fast as a Thermapen. It has the temperature as fast as I can place the probe and I can read temperatures as I push it through a steak and tell which side is hotter. It's pretty amazing.
-
It is neat to see the progression in style and features. Just like anything else, "they don't make em like they used to"....right?
-
They do have a new, waterproof pink one that I am just dying to get. It would so accessorize my green egg :ermm:
-
:( I miss my original yellow
the new yellow waterproof just doesn't respond as well :unsure: -
Everyone else is just jealous. Original Red rules, and everything else is just an imitation.
Facts can sting, but they are still the facts. -
I just painted my red one yellow, now it is as fast as our yellow one
-
No that is not true.
-
Mine's yellow...matches my wife's Bug.
-
Mine's yellow.
What I'd really like is the display on the other side, being left handed.
That thermaplus described above looks good except for the price. -
dude you saw that your old one is faster than my new waterproof one. thought you lost it. did you ever find it??
-
I'm left handed as well. I read my temps upside down. :ermm: Tim
-
-
I colored my yellow one black so no one knows mine is the fastest but me.
-
Hey!, mine's gray. Now I feel like I missed the boat. I coulda had red?, I coulda had yellow? Mollyshark, we need to talk.
-
Apparently the red thermapens also play a good game of hide and seek, but ultimately want to be found. it finally came out of hiding
-
All the car forums say Black is the fastest color
