cheap meat thermometer

[mart321]

Im after a cheap thermometer to keep an eye on the brisket pork and chicken I've been cooking on my Weber kettle but i don't want to pay £50+ for a thermopen. Is there any cheap alternatives. That don't do a bad job.

You can get refurbed Thermapens on eBay for £28

I heartely recommend the eBay thermopen, they are usually the splashproof (ideal for the UK BBQ season) and IF they are refurbed they are so well done it's hard to believe they aren't brand new.
Save your pennies and get a thermopen, even refurbed they carry a superb guarantee and certificate of calibration. If you buy cheap you buy often

there is no alternative I'm afraid. Otherwise you will end up buying one later.

I was going to ask the same question I guess Thermapen is the one that sets the standard?

Sure is the best bit off kit for the job, Got mine of EBay refurbished,saved some Pennies, and as Keith said your be hard pressed not to think its brand new.
