Wireless Meat Thermometer

[lakngulf]

I am thinking I may invest in a wireless thermometer for smoking meats, etc. What do you recommend?

Here's the one I purchased originally:

Acu Wrls BBQ Probe Therm - Newegg.com

I really liked it; it was simple, easy to use and worked great in the smoker. The monitor of course is outside of the smoker, so it gives a continual read out. It is "wireless" in the sense that it has a remote indicator that you can carry with you, and it gives an alarm when the set temperature is reached. The remote alarm wasn't much of a help, so I never used it. I eventually broke the wires in the probe and so it it out of commission. I will probably buy another if I can't get a new probe. In the meantime, I purchased another "fancy" thermometer that was on sale. It works OK, but its a PITA to set...I have to go to the manual every time.

I've been looking as well. I have read some good things about Maverick thermometers (link below). Whatever I get next is going to have replacement probes available. I've got at least three old thermos laying around because of failed probes.

Been using this one for 8 years and so far no issues at all. Bought it at bass pro shops. When I first saw it, I said "Well I'll be damned" out loud, since I never knew there was such a thing.

I got one of these from Lowe's a few months ago.

Meet The iGrill Family of Thermometers

I got the single probe version just to try it out. It works great, and I can monitor the temp via my Android phone. The only issue I had was with the spare phone I originally tried to use it with..... the OS of the phone didn't support the app, so I ended up using my new phone.

I've been very happy with it...

They make a 4 probe version.... as soon as I see it in Lowe's I'm going to pick it up. I think that one only comes with 2 probes, but I'll pick up 2 more with it.....

Here's the 4 probe version...

Maverick 733. My smoker is over 300' from the house and it works great from that distance.
