Title: Wi-Fi meat thermometers
Post by: Fastass350 on July 03, 2022, 03:30:35 PM: What’s everyone’s recommendations for a wireless meat thermometer? I’ve been relying on the ones with the traeger and am instant read I bought from Amazon, but it just crapped out on me (somehow it said my brisket went from 140 internal to 30 😂)

It’s time to bite the bullet and get a good one.

On a side note, had an 18 pound brisket on snce midnight, just wrapped in paper a little bit ago waiting for that last climb. Rubbed with mustard and our home mix cowboy rub, and misting with a dark beer occasionally (all things I learned here) Getting excited to eat some. We’re at 4000’ elevation here so that’s a new learning curve.

Or this if you don’t want to deal with the phone

Also, folks would be blown away at their actual cooker temp running a probe inside and comparing to what you have the actual cooker set too.

They work great and I love having 4 separate probes to do multiple meats at once of multiple spots on a big piece of meat. Just smoked 3 brisket, 25lbs of bacon and 30lbs of sausage. All turned out perfectly.
