ThermoPro TP516 Digital Meat Thermometers with Probe Tip Cover Instant Read Food Thermometer Cooking Thermometer Perfect for Cooking BBQ Sugar Jam Kitchen with 12cm Temperature Probe

A nice little meat thermometer.Accuracy is good.Putting it into water in a boiling kettle, mine reads 100.5c, which gives an accuracy of 0.5%. Very acceptable to me. (Photo).To take a temperature, whether it be meat or jam or whatever, you just insert it into your object, wait a couple of seconds, then read the temperature.You must not leave it in something, such as a pot whilst cooking.For example, if you were making jam, if you left the thermometer in the pot, and waited for the mixture to reach the correct boiling point, the constant increasing heat will travel up the length of the probe, and will eventually melt/damage the internal electronics.Just insert it occasionally to check the temperature.There are 3 buttons on the clever end.1) A combined on/off, centigrade/Fahrenheit button. A momentary press will turn the unit on. Pressing the on/off button for 2 seconds will turn it off.A momentary press of this button whilst on, switches between Centigrade and Fahrenheit.2) A temperature 'lock' button, which keeps the current temperature on the readout.3) A light button. The light comes on, when you first turn it on, and goes out after approx 5 seconds. Pressing this button will turn it on again for approx 5 seconds.The temperature, remains on the readout, as long as the unit is switched on.The probe itself is stainless steel, and is 135mm in length.The thermometer is powered by a 3v CR2032 battery, which comes supplied and fitted.There is a magnet on the rear, which is very useful, as to me, the fridge is the perfect place to keep it.The probe has a silicon cover, which is worth keeping, both for safety and to keep the end clean and undamaged.Obviously when cleaning, only clean the probe. Do not immerse the orange, electronic end in water. It is not waterproof.There is a little table of recommended meat temperatures printed on the back.Very useful to have, particularly if you want to cook beef, rare or medium.Overall, this is a great little thermometer for the money. It's has very good accuracy, and is very simple to use.I hope you found this review helpful.

Very easy to use and easy to clean, very helpful when cooking meat. Can use in Celsius and Fahrenheit

Good for the price, easy to use, easy to read. Great product, just 4 stars because it looks quite cheaply constructed.

Been super impressed at great this thermometer has been. Use it for tempering chocolate and other baking and it’s perfect. Nice and small plus easy to use and the display is very reactive and stable - would recommend

Does exactly what it says it will do and my meats joints have been perfectly cooked going by the temperatures.

Bought for checking temperatures on food cooked in the barbecue or just in general and it’s very accurate, works well.

Neat and easy to use. The safety sheath is not that great in terms of staying put.

Well built, simple to use
