I use a thermapen and I don't have any complaints.

The Thermapen Mk4 is the best one on the market hands down not even close. Just depends if you want to spend almost a hundred bucks. If you can wait a bit though, they run sales pretty frequently.

I love my William Sonoma blue tooth meat thermometer. It has 4 probes that you monitor on your phone

Thermapen if you want top notch. Thermopop if you want the budget version. Have had one for 2 years with no complaints

You want an instant read or something to leave in?

I bought a meater+ a few months ago. There is a lot to love about it. Fully wireless, works with smart devices, estimates cooking time, reads meat temp and ambient temp.
Only negative would be the advertised connection range is not even close. They claim 165 feet, I probably get about 30-40 and it will disconnect. Connects right back when you get close though, so more of just a pain getting the alert on your phone every 5 minutes.

I had a knockoff thermapen (available on Amazon) and they're very good too. Lost it, so I got a Thermopop and it's solid enough.
I use the Smoke for anything that takes a while.

I use Inkbird for leave in thermometers when smoking meat. Has capability for 4 temps at a time.

I have an original thermapen and its awesome and pretty fast. The new one is even better.
I got an error code on mine about 2yrs into it. I sent it to them and the fixed it and sent it back with no charge. You can’t buy them anywhere, but on their site. I also have their smoke set up. They make good stuff.

I have had a Chugod for about 3 years. No complaints.

I absolutely love my Fireboard. Wifi or bluetooth signal and several probes and waterproof

I've had this one for 3 or 4 years and it works great.

6 probes at once. Usually I only use 1 or two but when im grilling or smoking multiple meats at the same time it's awesome. Also has blue tooth capability and an app so I get an alarm on my phone when desired temps are reached.
Has a magnetic back as well, just dont do what I did the very first time I used it and attach it to the grill because then the back will melt and you'll have to tape a piece of cardboard to the back to hold the batteries in for the next several years.

They all work....its a thermometer

Thermoworks. Either the Thermopop if you're budget-limited or the Thermapen MK4 if you want the best on the market. I also have a Dot that I use instead of the probe that comes with the oven. They stand behind all of their stuff. I had a probe go out about 5 months after the purchase date. I called them and gave them my info. A couple days later they sent me with all three sizes of their probes.

I liked maverick as well. I think I’ve had mine for five years now.
If you have a kamado style smoker, make sure you remove the grate temp probes before doing a reverse sear. Lost several probes that way on accident.

Back to thermaworks, I use the Dot ($30) for leave-in, and it works great, too. It’s totally no-frills, though. One probe, no wireless, only 3 buttons on the whole thing. That’s what I wanted, though. My only issue with wireless is that I know at some point it’ll fail me once, and after that ruins whatever I’m cooking, I’ll never trust it again.
