Meater is trash.

If a wireless probe isn't important to you, then look at Thermoworks Smoke. Still get wireless monitoring but less expensive overall.

I got the thermoworks smoke 4 channel. Wired reliability, no app needed. It also controls the billows, which is really nice.

I have the smoke because the RFX is so damn expensive. It works great but I will say if you have to run an errand or leave the house, having it on an app would be really nice.

I use my Thermoworks Thermapen a lot to spot check while cooking. I use this one most of the time

I have an older basic model Thermoworks Smoke as well if I want to use a leave in thermometer

I'm a big fan of Thermoworks products, but I got a Typhur Synch Gold Dual set of a base station and two wireless probes that I really like. App works great too, so you can monitor temps via your phone or the base station.

Regular price is about $199. It was on sale last Christmas, a YouTuber I like pimped it, and I made a somewhat impulse buy. I've really enjoyed it. I like the two probes, even when cooking one item, so you can get a constant read from different areas (like flat and point, or breast and thigh) .

Support for meater is waning on this board...

I've used them for at least 5 years. The original one did great as far as temps go, but I had a ton of issues with it staying connected inside my smoker.

I got the pro last year (after debating other products) and it works much better. I did want 4 probes so I got the block bundle when it was on a really good sale before Christmas. I think that helps with the connection issues as well.

Main thing that swayed me away from the RFX was having the probe temp gauge still need a wire. I like the completely wireless system.

I still have the OG Meater+, but I only use it for whole chickens, butts, briskets, big stuff because the probe is so thick and I can just check easily with a thermapen for shorter cooks. I get great range, I set the block on the outside smoker shelf so it always has connection, and I can go almost anywhere on my house and still get a reading.
