Review on Taylor Precision Products Instant Read Analog Kitchen Thermometer with Red Pocket Sleeve Clip - Ideal for Meat, Food, Grill, BBQ Cooking - 1 Inch Dial by Brandy Powell

Considering how often they accidentally get damaged in the garbage chute, a good, cheap and functional food thermos is preferable. I've worked in kitchens for decades and this works flawlessly (instant battery reading is a waste of money IMO). For those of you unfamiliar with these thermometers, make sure to calibrate them in a cup of crushed ice when they are new and periodically thereafter. Use the closed cup like a Styrofoam coffee mug - let sit for a minute, stirring occasionally - while holding the dial head, use pliers to turn the hex nut until the dial reads 32 degrees Fahrenheit. My order was correct and on time.
