The database of more than 200 thermometer reviews he maintains on AmazingRibs.com is without peer.
For turkey, it is important to use a digital probe that can be inserted and left in the deepest part of the breast. It is also important to place a probe just above the cooking surface near the bird so it feels the same temp as the bird. Both probes are attached to cables that run from the probes to the outside of the grill so we can monitor the temperature of both the meat and the oven at any time without opening the lid. There are several models available with as many as 6 probes and some are Bluetooth and Wifi connected.
Currently we recommend the Maverick XR-50 Remote Four- Probe Thermometer. For about $90. It even has a wireless monitor that we can set on the co ee table while we watch the game, and alarms in case we snooze. With 4 probes it can handle two or more birds. Here’s a link to more remote thermometer options.
