Digital Meat Thermometers

Lmartin

Just wanted feedback on the egghead thermometer of choice. I pick one up at Wal-mart for about 15 bucks. It worked ok at first but now it seems to get so far with temp and stops reading. Yes...... I have changed batteries. I end up using a manual meat thermomter for final reading. Any thoughts on which one is the best.

Easy answer. Thermapen. http://www.thermoworks.com/products/thermapen/?gclid=CN_44o7W9bUCFQ2nnQod1kkA5A

For food temp the hands down choice is a Thermapen from Thermoworks. They are $90 but work in seconds, very important when you are trying to take an internal over very hot coals. They work very well and last a long time. The one thing most of the forum members agree on - other than which color/colour is the fastest..... (My vote is red)

BTW - Welcome noticed it is your first post!

Thank you for your feed back!!!! It looks like a great product.

Thermapen it is then....... I'm new to the egg world. My husband and boys gave me mine for Christmas. Have absolutely loved it...... Can't believed I grilled on gas for years. The egg is the bomb.

My yellow thermapen is the fastest production thermometer available. Red, the fastest, no way.

Get a Thermapen. Last week I got a refurbished one from the factories eBay site.

Green is the fastest, most accurate and matches my BGE apron.

A fashion statement from of all places, Flint, who'd a thunk it?

Pink is so fast I get the reading before stabbing the food!  It's predictive!

Red by far is the fastest, I would race a green for pink slips anyday.

Green means go and is by far the fastest as @Fred19Flinstone already said, British Racing Green is slightly ahead of Bright Green then the rest of them are racing for third place..

Here is the link but you can catch them slightly on sale occasionally. 

Welcome to the obsession!
