I’m going to assume for a moment that you’re already a believer in cooking thermometers. You realized years ago that with a good cooking thermometer, you can cook meals that are just that much better. No more over or under cooking your food. If you’re on the ball, you can get the exact temperature you want without having to guess.
The only problem is that most digital cooking thermometers are absolute junk. If you’re anything like me, you’ve gone through many over the years, most lasting no more than a few months. They’re often inexpensive, but also built extremely poorly, and they just don’t last.
The Thermapen by ThermoWorks
I got tired of constantly having to replace my cooking thermometer, and started to research some better options. Even though I was happy to spend more on a product that would last, it was surprisingly difficult to find anything that fit the bill. That is, until I stumbled onto the Thermapen by ThermoWorks.
It looks pretty simple, and that’s because it is. It will tell you the correct temperature faster and with greater accuracy than pretty much any cook thermometer on the market, and it’s built to withstand just about any abuse you’ll throw at it. It’s also dead simple to use.
There are no buttons at all. You just fold out the problem, the display turns on, and away you go. If you’re cooking in the dark because you’re a weirdo, no problem… the display even has a little back-light that automatically turns on when the device detects low light conditions.
If you’re tired of spending money on garbage cooking thermometers that don’t work properly or break after a few months, do yourself a favor and order a Thermapen Mk4 cooking thermometer and never look back. The $99 USD you spend on it will save you a small fortune and make your cooking – and eating – experience, that much better.
