Using an instant read thermometer takes any guesswork out of your cooks. You pay lots of money for good cuts of meat, you can eliminate the chance of ruining your meat by overcooking it or serving something that is woefully under cooked by using an instant read thermometer and knowing at what temps certain meats are done to your liking.
On most BBQ forums people rave about the Thermoworks Mk4 instant read thermometer. It’s a great thermometer. A friend has one, I’ve used it. It’s also $100 and if you’re lucky there’s a %15 off sale so you can get it for $85.
After reading a ton of reviews I bought a Javelin Pro instant read thermometer. It’s virtually the same durable build quality and its half the price. I absolutely love mine.
