Maverick
« on: November 01, 2023, 01:29:08 PM »
I have been using the same Maverick  temp probe for yrs. It has finally started to become unreliable. Any suggestions as to what brand folks recommend now. Mine has been a good one.

I have been using the Thermoworks SMOKE for a few years now and really like it:

I have a Thermoworks that's great.  No Wi-Fi, dual probe and reliable.  I use it for any devise including the kitchen oven.  I take it on vacation too.

Thermoworks instant read when I decide the smoker controller might be on a coffee break. I also have an old maverick.  Still reliable.

Thanks guys for the reply. I'll be looking at a Thermoworks this time I guess.
