Turkey and Holiday Roast Thermometer with 7 Meat Types Pre-Programmed Audible Temperature Alarm Long 8 inch Probe Grill Your Beef, Poultry, Pork, Lamb and BBQ Brisket To Perfection

Its not always real fast

So far so good I've used as a few times just to get a quick temp on meat the Reed is very quick and seems to be pretty accurate I've not used any of the settings not sure if they are accurate as I just tend to go by what I know well done medium or rare temps are

I used this today for the first time..both my husband and I went through the instruction sheet (my husband twice)..was roasting a chicken for chicken & noodles for Christmas Day.took the plastic thingy out to start the thermometer, turned it on..moved it to poultry checked temp after 15 minutes cooking..would not give us a reading just the 165 which is the finished temp according to instruction. put chicken back in oven because of course we knew it was not finished, checked again 15 min, same 165, turned it off and back on at least 3 times to see it if would reset..nothing checked couple more times and always 165. To make matters worse I bought this to bring to our winter home in MX..not stuck the winter with nothing. Grrr

Bought while we were moving to different home to use with new oven. Oven was delivered recently so I opened package, followed all directions to use this thermometer on roast. It never changes from user mode and reads LLL no matter what I try to set. Where can I find a replacement battery?

I have had this for a few months and it works only so-so. I have used it on beef and pork and it was very close to being accurate but it's another story on chicken. If I cooked the chicken to the temp it states at 165 degrees (which is the correct temp chicken should be at) it is always overcooked and dry. So I do not trust it on my chicken. I just need to figure out how many degrees it is off.

I love to cook, and while I usually think I can get things to the correct temps, it is nice to have confirmation of that. A good meat thermometer is a must both for getting things cooked to the right temperature but also not getting them overdone.This thermometer has a nice feature where you can program it for the type of food you are making, and the doneness you wish to end up with. Nobody wants raw poultry or pork. You can set this thermometer for several different types of meat, and set what temperature you want for beef, veal and lamb. I must confess, I have never cooked veal or lamb, but this long probe does work nice for a large beef roast.I also tried it on a turkey, and I will never use the popup thing what comes with the turkey again. Using a real meat thermometer, you can get it done without overcooking and drying out the food. I also like the fact that it beeps giving a confirmation that you are a the desired temperature.Regarding the Instant Read feature, It is not instant. It takes a few seconds for it to show the correct temp. I would guess in most cases it was 5-6 seconds.The thermometer came in a box that reads INTANT READ THERMOMETER. I am sure someone is kicking themselves over that misprint, but maybe that is why these are at such a discount.It is cool to have a good thermometer around that is accurate and it is nice to cook a steak to a perfect medium rare without cutting into it to verify the rareness.Another reviewer stated that his thermometer would not read water temperature, This one reads fine for me. It reads temperature in a running stream of water or in a glass. No problem as long as the probe is in the water.I did get this item at a discount with the agreement that I would provide a honest review.

The best Thermometer I have ever used for grilling. It's extra length means hands stay away from the heat. The read out at the end is at the correct position to see the cooking temperature, again so you stay away from the heat. It really works well - goes on every time you press the button & is easy to read.

not good at all dead on arrival battery was dead before opening package where do you find replacement battery not happy
