Details: Probe Port Barbecue Smoker Thermometer Stainless Steel
Brand: Probe Port
These probe ports will work on virtually any smoker – just drill a hole and fasten the port to the cooker. No more crimping your wires, no more feeding them through the lid or the smoke stack! Features a adjustable port, allowing you to tighten the outer ring around the probes, preventing smoke from leaking out the port. Made out of stainless steel. Note: these will not fit on a cooker with 1/4″ or thicker steel as the threads are not long enough to accommodate the locking nut that goes on the inside wall. You can use a pipe tap and tap a hole that will allow the port to be tightly threaded; however, in that case the locking washer that is provided will not be used. Directions for installing on cooker are included with the port.

Buyer Guide meat thermometer
When buying a meat thermometer, there are a few things you should consider first.- Price. Price is the first thing you should consider. The more expensive the thermometer, the better it will be.
- Temperature Range. The temperature range of the thermometer will determine the kinds of meats you can cook.
- Accuracy. Accuracy is very important as well. The thermometer’s accuracy will determine how well it will cook the meat.
- Look. The thermometer’s look is also important.
How to choose meat thermometer
A meat thermometer measures the internal temperature of the meat to ensure it’s cooked thoroughly. If you plan on cooking steaks, roasts, pork chops, chicken breasts, or other meats, a meat thermometer will help you cook them evenly and consistently.- Length: The longer the meat thermometer, the better. The longer the thermometer, the easier it will be for you to check the temperature of the meat.
- Knob: Meat thermometers with a knob are easier to handle. A knob also makes turning the thermometer easier, especially if yours is battery-operated.
- Battery life: With most meat thermometers, you’ll want to invest in ones that have rechargeable batteries.
- Temperature range: Ideally, the temperature range of your meat thermometer should cover any temperature you plan on cooking your meat to.
- Accuracy: Most meat thermometers are accurate to 2?F. The accuracy of your thermometer will depend on how accurate the thermometer you use is.
How accurate is the thermometer?
- A good meat thermometer will register when the meat reaches 160?F.
- A mediocre meat thermometer will register when the meat reaches 140?F.
- A bad meat thermometer will register when the meat reaches 130?F.
How to maintain meat thermometer
Unlike electronic devices, meat thermometers dont come with instructions. So, its important to know how to properly maintain and care for your meat thermometer to ensure that it works properly every time you use it.
There are three important things you can do to maintain and care for your meat thermometer:
- Clean it regularly: The probe that comes with your meat thermometer should be cleaned regularly, as well as the device itself. If your thermometer has removable parts, remove the detachable parts and clean them separately.
- Replace the probe: Over time, the probe of your meat thermometer can wear out and break, which can result in inaccurate measurements. If your probe becomes loose or breaks, replace your unit with a new one.
- Store it carefully: The probe of your meat thermometer should be stored in a cool, dry place when not in use. Some meat thermometers come with storage cases that help keep the probe protected.
