I use the grill probes for guidance and have a nice kitchen probe ($16) that I rely on for final temps. Ok I will look for a good regular kitchen probe. Had one and I left it outside accidentally. ☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 You can find temp probe at the Dollar store. Anything I have is the best firearms, accessories. My wife deserves the best, I won't cheap out. Good kitchen tools are not cheap and cheap tools don't last. That's if you use them. Wife cooks all day everyday we rarely eat carry out. Just my 2 mag's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2 mag's. I’ve tried a handful of probes. Most are the same manufacturer and different casings. I’ve found the folding ones (at least the 4-5 I have tried) all sucked. I’ll take a picture of the one I have that has been awesome and even after long periods of time continues to read accurately. I test every so often in an ice bath and run the calibration.

DNP Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Tried to get my wife to take one and send it to me. She said no. I’ll be home later. She did say it says NSF CDN on it. scrww it. I looked it up. It’s this one: https://www.homedepot.com/p/CDN-ProAccurate-Black-Digital-Food-Thermometer-Q2-450X/204211087 might find it cheaper elsewhere. I paid $16 at my meat market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That new smoker will make your work easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
