Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer (Black) - ThermoworksCustomer Review: A must have for grilling enthusiasts Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say enough good things about this product. It's extremely quick and accurate temperature read outs make overcooking meats a thing of the past. I was a little deterred initially because of the price but I'd pay double for it if I needed a replacement. I've had several cheaper temp gauges in the past and they've all been slow and inaccurate. This pen is spot on every time.
One thing that might be perceived as a negative is that it's not water resistent. This could be a problem if it gets left out in the rain or if it's submerged in water. I've been careful of this so it hasn't been a problem for me. I believe the newer models are water resistent so it might be worth price comparing the two before purchasing.
Description of Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer (Black) - ThermoworksOriginally designed for professional users, the Super-Fast Thermapen is chosen by restaurant chains, health inspectors, quality managers and chefs all over the world. The clever pocket design replaces more costly and bulky handheld thermometers while using the same professional thermocouple technology. The Super-Fast Thermapen displays actual internal food or liquid temperatures in only 3 or 4 seconds. Other thermometers make you wait another 20 seconds or more to catch up to the Thermapen. That's a huge difference in a fast paced commercial kitchen or when you're over a hot grill. If you're cooking an expensive cut of meat you want a perfect outcome. You don't want a slow temperature reading that might be misinterpreted and your meat overcooked.
The reduced-diameter needle tip of the Super-Fast model only requires about 1/8" immersion so you can take the temperature of even thin burger patties. And, you'll only leave a tiny, self-closing hole in your steak instead of the gaping "juice-drain" left by "digital BBQ forks" or the old dial-type meat thermometers.
The Thermapen automatically comes on when you unfold the probe and it shuts off when you close it for storage. An auto-off feature will save your battery if you leave the probe open over 6 minutes. Each unit includes a battery, a wrist-strap and a certificate of calibration with actual test data to show your unit's accuracy at two temperatures.
