Thermometer - Which is best?

[Kev81]

What's the best wireless meat thermometer you've used for low-and-slow cooks? My current probes are all over the place with temps—nothing reliable inside the smoker. I've heard Meater gets a ton of love for accuracy and app alerts, but curious about your real-world experiences (pros/cons, alternatives like ThermoWorks or ThermoPro?).

Help a newbie wanna be pitmaster out!

I think everything Thermoworks is top tier. Its all I use.

Do you use the RFX?

Do you use the RFX?

None of mine are wireless. But they make great products and have amazing customer service. I believe they are a sponsor of the site.

Pretty sure someone or a couple did a review of the RFX

I have a number of Thermoworks products including the RFX. Love the RFX. Wouldn't consider any other manufacturer.

I'm a ThermoPro fan.Both my TP829 4 probe wired and TP972 TempSpike Plus wireless 2 probe work flawlessly,these are not wifi just bluetooth.Great sales going on right now too.

Boil water and check ur thermometer every once in a while I’ve used quite a few and tossed anything that couldn’t pass the boiling water calibration … had good luck with Walmart ones and the ink bird ones

What do you think of the Inkbird? Thanks for the tip about boiling water — that’s really helpful for checking accuracy. My last chuck roast ended up a bit burnt even though it only showed 165°F internally. I couldn’t believe my thermometer could be off that much, but I did buy it from Amazon, I try and stick to the brand selling it themselves, but it could be fake.

Inkbird works great for me…. 165F for most meats is over cooked in my opinion what were
You shooting for with the chuck roast as far as dish you were making and how did you cook it ?
