Customer Review: A lot of money for the wrong product
Summary: 2 Stars
I'd heard great things on meat smoker forums about this product. I was disappointed that it arrived later than I anticipated and that shipping seemed expensive. It is substantial and thick and seems like a tank of a gauge... However...
Most of all, this product isn't really that useful for smoking meat. For my smoker and most smokers, all you're really going to register is the temperature of the steam at the top of the smoker. I would recommend getting a temperature gauge that goes on top of your grill near where the meat is actually cooked if accuracy is your aim.
If you are going to do some sort of Kentucky windage recording using this to measure your baseline, I'm sure it will work fine. It seems pretty sturdy but I haven't had it long enough to give a real opinion on that side of it.
I bought the maverick temperature gauge on Amazon and it digitally sends me the temperature of my meat and the temperature where the meat or ribs are being smoked (right above the grill). If I had it all to do over again, I'd never have ordered this product because the Maverick does a very good job.
One other thing, it's pathetic that you don't get a washer and nut to lock this thing down. It's an awkward size nut you can't get at lowes or home depot. Tel-Tru will sell you an "installation kit" for like 6 bucks on their site.
