Checked out, but still on the fence. I have know doubt it’s an excellent thermometer.

Back 30 years ago all that was available were analog *instant* reads; the ones with the red sleeve. When I apprenticed as a chef it was one the first tools of the trade I purchased. It takes about 3-4 seconds to read. Over the years I’ve checked the calibration a few time. Always +/- a degree or two. Still have it and use it anytime I cook a roast, whole turkey or chicken, etc...

Never had a need for a backup. Yet, my wife purchased a digital 4-5 years ago. It takes f - - o - - r - - e - - v - - e - - r to get close. Once it’s within10-15 degrees it starts increasing at a rate of about 3 seconds per tenth of a degree. Grass grows faster than it reads. One day I tossed in the trash and told her it was a piece of πŸ’©. Within 15 seconds she dug it out of the trash can, washed it throughly and put it back in the drawer. Since I do about 99.9999999999999999999999 % of the cooking the only time it has moved since is when a start tossing around other utensils trying to find something.

Not a clue my friend. I can’t justify even 1 clue. But, every crowd has at least one peanut gallery member.

Thermapens do not have that problem. They're actually instant read. Within a second. But if you've got a good instant analog, run what you brung! [chef]

I just switched a few years ago. Never looked back. 🍺
