CDN Grill Surface Thermometer | ProAccurate®, Temperature Zones, High Heat, Color-Coded Scale - Laboratory Glass Lens - Perfect for Grill, BBQ, NSF Certified - GTS800X

If you hate guessing the temperature of your grill or flattop, this is the solution. It will allow you to figure the hot spots on your grill and help you adjust to consistent temperatures. Our food is coming out better than ever while avoiding over and under cooking. This is inexpensive, yet appears accurate. I always make sure to wipe any grease off the glass after use or it will infiltrate the thermometer over time and ruin it. Durablity is good, but I usually end up replacing it once a year. Hard core grillers laugh at me and then realize it is a great idea and usually buy one themselves.

don't know much about cooking. it really helps to know what temp you are working with. this works on my grill and frying pan or wherever I need to know the temp. Good price for what you get.

The Good: Works as advertised. Can easily map the thermal profile of the grill's surface. I've owned quality grills in the past, and all have provided reasonably consistent heat over the cooking surface. But, things aren't made like they once were, so a thermometer like this helps to ID the trouble spots. The Bad: Many reviewers complained that after several uses, they can't read the dial. A buildup of grease, baked on by high grill temps, leave a film on the face of the thermometer that you can't see through. The Ugly: You have to clean the face of the thermometer frequently, after only three or four uses, and depending on what you grill and how close the thermometer is to it. I found that an SOS-type pad or soapy steel wool works best. I would've given this product a 5-star rating except that the product description doesn't caution the buyer on how greasy this thing gets and needs cleaning often. Obviously, it's a given since it plays in the mud. But, many reviewers sounded the alarm, so I was prepared. Still, the merchant should've offer some general cleaning tips. For the plug-and-play type, this frequent cleaning might be too inconvenient. Nevertheless, as long as you can see through the dial, this product delivers.

I was hesitant to get this because several people said it became unreadable after a few uses. The first time I used it I smoked ribs and pork butts an used it for about 8 hours. It was hard to see the temp by that time, and I was a bit afraid I had gotten something I could not use. The smoke and gunk was on the outside of the glass face and came clean like magic when I cleaned it with the stuff we use to clean the smoke off the inside of our wood burning stove. We use a produce called Speedy White. Just Google it! We are not really that smart---it took years to find something to get the door of the wood burner clean!

This item is for use on a flat top grill or pan not really for charcoal grills. I found it to be pretty slow to reach temp but it is accurate enough once it heats up. I use this on a Lodge grilling plate on a propane camp stove so it took several minutes to get the thermometer to register the temp correctly then adjust the flame to get to my desired temp. It's ok for the price.

I rarely write reviews! I ordered two of these to see how well they registered together. Put them in a 375 degree over for a few minutes and when I pulled them out they were both at 390 degrees. I put my Kitchen Aid corded digital probe on the same rack and it read 387 degrees. Our oven must run a little hot. As they cooled down, their temperatures were the same all the way down to the 100 mark. Once in awhile I’m amazed and these two performed so well, I decided to write the Review these two deserve.

I was trying to learn how to properly grill a really nice filet for our anniversary and every recipe I read said knowing the grill's surface temperature was key so I bought this thermometer. Works exactly as described, seems accurate enough, to the point where the filets came out fantastic. Was actually some of the best steak we ever had. Very please with this little thermometer. Highly recommend!

The lens gets harder to see thru the more you use it. The cloudiness is on the inside. Wanted to contact the seller but once the return window closes there no way to do so..... Would not recommend !!!!
