Instant Read Thermometer with Backlight for Meat & Cooking. Sold in Elegant Gift Box. Best Ultra Fast Digital BBQ Food Probe. Includes Internal Barbecue Meat Temperature Guide. by Alpha Grillers

Excellent product, excellent service, excellent value. Customer service enhanced through emailed instruction and care notes which arrived prior to delivery - nice touch and completely unexpected. Not yet put to intended use but 'functionally checked' and found accurate against several heat sources. Very well made, clear and explicit instructions, useful storage container. Highly recommended. Since writing the above comment 'have used the tool three times. First time around found I'd overshot temp required by about 10 degrees so steak slightly overdone - BUT - adjusted timing and next two steaks (in GF grill) were almost perfect for an amateur cook. Thoroughly recommended. My thanks to Alpha Grillers and Amazon.

My first time purchasing a product of this kind, though Im more than impressed with this kit. Comes well packaged and with a couple of basic, cooked-foods guidelines included. The unit itself feels very robust and well manufactured. The led backlight is a great idea and really brightens the screen up, it's also a nice tone of blue light too, not full of glare or dullness. If you're on the lookout for a device which performs the tasks this does; then look no further.

Much better than my previous attempt to buy a cooking themometer. Its sturdy l like that you can fold down the pointer or thermo stick for easy storage.

Only used this once or twice. I got it mainly for when I cook steaks as my family’s likes range from well done to blue.

I have had many food thermometers over the years as I don't like to risk meat not being cooked properly, this one however is by far the best. So convenient ,when I have used it the metal probe clips back safely into the side and I put it on my fridge door just like a fridge magnet ready for the next time I need it. Very easy to use with clear bold display. Arrived quickly and well packaged, very happy with purchase and will definitely buy another one from the same company when ever necessary. Excellent value for money.

Great item for the price, of course I would like most prefer an instant read but a four times the price this is a great economic option. Came in Celsius reading but as most of the good BBQ recipes are from the US I needed to change it. Not being so obvious I emailed them to receive clarification on changing it, with a prompt reply. Attached is a picture they sent with the minuscule switch to change temperature units. Overall really happy with it, would recommend at this price point.

avoid although it works really well after less than 6 months the plastic that holds the metal probe just broke, typical poor Chinese quality let down by probably inferior plastic

Started to work fine but then after holding it over a pan for a while the body started to melt, this could be my fault for holding the unit near the heat for to long. You can't fault the accuracy of the unit though it works fine. Don't be put of from buying this but i do think a more substantial casing would be better but for the money you can't complain too much.

►►VORBEMERKUNG◄◄ Mit einem Braten- bzw. Grillthermometer wie dem hier angebotenen lässt sich durch die lange Messspitze die Kerntemperatur von Grillgut oder Braten bestimmen. Außerdem ist solch ein Thermometer ein praktisches Alltagsutensil, um die Temperatur von heißen Getränken oder ähnlichem zu bestimmen. ►VERPACKUNG / LIEFERUMFANG◄ Das Thermometer wird zusammen mit englischen Bedienungsanleitung in einer stabilen Kartonverpackung versendet. Die zum Betrieb notwendige CR2035-Batterie ist bereits eingesetzt. ►►PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG◄◄ Das hier angebotene Bratenthermometer macht nach dem Auspacken einen recht vernünftigen Eindruck, was die Qualität und Verarbeitung angeht. Außerdem misst es die jeweiligen Temperaturen schnell und zuverlässig. An dem Gerät befinden sich lediglich 3 Tasten: ON/OFF, Displaybeleuchtung und eine HOLD-Taste zum "Einfrieren" des Temperaturwertes. Das blau beleuchtete LCD-Display zeigt die Messwerte groß und deutlich an. Die Bedientasten lassen sich zwar gut drücken, nehmen aber die entsprechenden Befehle nur mit einem hörbarem Klickgeräusch an. An der Rückseite des Gerätes befindet sich das Batteriefach für eine CR2035-Batterie, die im Lieferumfang enthalten ist. Die Edelstahl-Messsonde ist solide verarbeitet und dünn und spitz genug, um sie in einem Braten zu stecken. Die Rückseite ist magnetisch, sodass das Gerät an metallischen Oberflächen, wie zum Beispiel einer Dunstabzughaube befestigt werden kann. Das Thermometer liefert ziemlich genaue Messergebnisse, ich habe an einem Wasserkocher mit einem zweiten Thermometer Referenzmessungen durchgeführt und bekam fast immer die gleichen Ergebnisse oder nur geringfügige Abweichungen. ►►FAZIT◄◄ Das hier angebotene Bratenthermometer erfüllt vernünftig seinen Zweck beim Messen von Temperaturen und lässt sich einfach bedienen.

The item received is exactly the item shown. It came in sturdy cardboard box with foam packing to protect it. The box contains the thermometer and four adhesive Velcro dots that can be used to attach the thermometer to another object. The thermometer is magnetic and easily adheres to magnetic metals. It easily adhered to a cool part of my grill. There is also a small, easy to read, sturdy cardboard insert "meat temperature guide" included. The temperatures shown on the guide (I checked chicken and beef) are correct. It also shows the USDA recommended temperatures for meats. There are three easy to depress buttons. The thermometer turns on easily and starts in Fahrenheit (many of these come up in Celsius and have to be changed). The thermometer also has a Hold button that locks the temperature until you can read it. Another button turns on a back lite allowing the temperature to be easily read in dim light. The numbers are good sized and easy to read (even without my glasses). I have purchased about four different thermometers previously. This one is by far the best. It is easy to read, easy to operate, sturdy, accurate, light weight and is magnetic. This is clearly a five star product. Plus, I also found out that the company stands behind the product. Bottomline: This is a very nice product, is exactly as shown/advertised and I highly recommend it. NO DISCLAIMER as I paid FULL price for this item and received NO consideration and NO discount for writing this review.

hier gibts für das kleine geld nichts zu meckern;es funktioniert und tut was es soll. hatte ein paar tage davor ein anderes bestellt,7,99teil,das taugte leider nix,es maß nichts über 100grad celsius, obwohl es bis zu 300packen sollte.. doch hier funktioniert alles bestens,verpackung ist sehr schön,gartabellen die dabeiliegen praktisch, verpackung und beilagen für den kleinen preis ungewöhnlich üppig,trotzem fehlt am thermometer nix, selbst beleuchtung ist da!! kann ich nur weiterempfehlen,das teil hier,wenn einer einfach wissen will wieviel grad seine speisen beim garen haben ohne das man gleich ein haufen geld ausgeben will.

Had been very happy with the thermometer. We have a more expensive instant read thermometer and although this one takes a second or two longer to come to temperature than the $100 one, the readings are identical. It's a great tool for both food safety and ideal preparation. It's easy to use, easy to clean, and accurate. After owning the thermometer for nearly a year and using it extensively, the bottom on the LCD screen stopped working. For an inexpensive item, I figured I was probably out of luck. I easily found an email address for Alpha Grillers and sent them a photo of the screen and a screenshot of my Amazon order. They quickly wrote back asking for the order number and then send me out a brand new thermometer I didn't have to send in the old one and only a few days after sending my initial email, I had a new thermometer in hand. The service was quick, pleasant, and efficient.

Received my Instant Read Thermometer just a couple days after placing my order. It works really well. Takes about five or six seconds to register the correct temperature. The housing is plastic, but it feels like a quality product. The day after ordering, I got an email from the company that had some very helpful tips on how to get the most out of the product. The box that the thermometer came in had some other very helpful inserts in it as well: 1) instructions on how to use the thermometer; 2) a chart listing several different kinds of meats with the corresponding correct serving temperatures and what color, moisture and texture the meat should be at the suggested temperature; 3) what to do and how to contact the company if there is ever a problem with the thermometer; 4) how to download a free recipe ebook. Excellent product, excellent company to do business with.
