I rarely overcook a steak as I prefer it quite rare. However, "playing defense" on pork and chicken is a different matter as I had no device that accurately guided me to removal from the grill. Until now. I purchased the Maverick PT-100 and am batting 100 on pork and chicken. The thermometer is fast and while I have no means to verify its accuracy, my family's satisfaction of my cooked and grilled meats is vindication enough.

I'm a little late reviewing but I had to wait until my friend open up the gift for Christmas. He is a chef and he really liked it. Especially the big LED display. Very handy and easy to use...a lot of very important temp info also. I am glad I purchased this item.

I own several thermometers that will eventually give you the temperature. No waiting with this one! You get a final reading within seconds.

I used this instrument several times over the Thanksgiving weekend and it was wonderful. I am very pleased with my purchase. No more waiting for the temperature to register until my hand can't stand the heat anymore.

An outstanding product. Easy to use, easy to clean and very accurate. I have two Thermometers, one at my hunting lodge and one at home. Never again will I have overcooked steaks, roasts, turkey etc.

This is the best probe thermometer I have ever used, beats all other analog and digital ones I have owned. Very accurate. Response time is quite fast - minimizes the time you have to have the grill cover open to get an accurate reading of the internal temperature of the meat.

Prior to buying this model, I have suffered through with a cheaper instant read thermometer which worked but constantly ran down the watch batteries that needed time and care to replace and finally the flimsy wiring finally broke during such a replacement (as an engineer I can say it was poorly designed).
The design of this new thermometer is well thought out and well done. It is sturdy and simple to use. Well done.

Bought a cheap digital thermometer 3 months ago,what a disappoint me. I bought the Maverick Thermo Professional Instant Read PT-100. I used it for all my Holliday baking and cooking, delightful and it gave me an instant temperature that is so easy to read in seconds. Its worth the price, as the food is exactly as you want it. The Joy of cooking is presenting the meal as you have worked to achieve a beautiful tasting presentation.

I purchased three Maverick Thermos one for myself and one for each of my sons. All three of us are amazed at the quality and accuracy. One of my sons is an avid griller and he said he will never grill again without using his thermo.

I historically over-cook chicken and pork on the grill or in a fry pan as I didn't know when the safe temperature was reached.
To avoid future apologies and embarrassment, I purchased this thermometer. I use it when grilling or cooking inside and it has been error-free.
My fear of undercooking chicken and pork is over and the results have yielded more tender meat and no more complaints.
I also like the recommended temperatures printed on the device so I don't need to search for a reference.

I put this product to the test for accuracy. Using fresh batteries, I tested it on steaks, roast and turkey. On a really rare steak, it would shoot up to over 210 degrees. The meat was still raw!
On my roast and turkey I didn't like the fact that it started out with a high reading and counts down (very slowly) to its final reading. Bottom-line: It takes forever to check the temps on meats.
I would not recommend this product. I am returning it.

Easy to use. The large display makes the temp easy to read and the unit is easy to keep clean. The automatic cut off and printed temp for the various items you might cook keeps everything simple.
