Customer Reviews

good product, but you MUST like elctronic gadgets to use one
This was a gift for my husband and he loves it. He is willing to read the instructional manual and he really likes electronics and technology type toys. I thought about ordering one for my dad, but he doesn't even use a cell phone or set the blinking clock on the VCR - not the type of gift he would use - so good to know the person your shopping for. My husband looks forward to an advanced model with a personal voice recognition program so he can program the talking responses (if they ever go that far!)...Go Flip your Chicken!

Highly Recommend The AW131 BBQ/Oven Thermometer
This is a great choice if you want a serious cooking thermometer. As soon as I received it I tested it against a digital instant-read thermometer in a glass filled with ice cubes and water and then in a pan of boiling water. In both tests it was right on the mark with the instant-read thermometer.

Later in an actual cooking test with a pork roast in the oven it came out with exactly the same reading as the instant-read. Finally, cooking some pork shoulders in an outdoor barbecue pit, it once again was right on the mark with the instant-read.

For me, two additional features that are important are, 1) it warns you when the meat temperature is 5 degrees away from the target temp allowing you to remove the meat at that time and allow the carry over cooking to reach the final temp thereby keeping the meat from over cooking; and 2) you can manually set a target temperature of your own choosing, such as 190F, if you want really tender pork shoulders/butts for pulled pork.

I highly recommend the Oregon Scientific AW131 BBQ/Oven Thermometer. It is accurate and has operated flawlessly for me. Be sure to read the instructions and don't forget those parts of the instructions about resetting both units.

reset
The product works fine when you figure out how operate it. After a lot of frustration trying to activate the thing it occured to me to push the reset button on the receiver and the sender at the same time. Worked like a charm.
