Cooking Thermometers - Buyer FAQs
Which thermometer is best for grilling meat at home?

Can I use a probe thermometer in the oven while roasting?
Yes, oven-safe probe thermometers can stay in the meat during roasting. Make sure the cable and probe are heat-resistant and positioned away from bones for precise temperature monitoring.
How do I ensure my oven thermometer is accurate?
Place the thermometer in a preheated oven and compare the reading to the oven dial. If the difference exceeds 5°C, adjust your cooking temperature or recalibrate your oven accordingly.
Are cooking thermometers suitable for candy and deep-frying?

Wipe the probe with a damp cloth after each use, avoid immersing non-waterproof components, replace batteries regularly, and store in a dry, cool place. This keeps readings accurate and extends the thermometer's life.
