Check out my latest gadget purchase! Was reading a tech blog today and today's post featured a talking digital BBQ thermometer. It got me curious and I started checking out the range of models in Amazon. In the end, I opted for the Oregon Scientific AW131 Grill Right Wireless Talking Oven/Barbeque Thermometer.
Now I can cook my beef, chicken, fish to perfection! And since it's wireless upto 300+ feet, I can leave the stove or BBQ pit, sit by my TV and wait for the gadget to alert me when my food's almost cooked. I hope it arrives in time for Christmas! if not, I'm looking forward to using it in our BBQ pit in our future home. Here's the product description on Amazon:
Whether it's a roast for a dinner party or a turkey for the holidays, this handy thermometer ensures meals get cooked to perfection. The unit features a digital LCD screen and a remote wireless probe to identify the temperature of meat. Simply insert the stainless-steel 6-inch probe into the meat, run the 40-inch wire out of the oven or barbeque, and close the door. The sensor will display the current temperature ranging from 32 to 572 degrees F. Choose from eight entree programs including beef, lamb, veal, hamburger, pork, turkey, chicken, and fish, along with four doneness selections, which include rare, medium rare, medium, and well done. Two verbal and three audio alert options indicate the status of food--almost ready, ready, and overcooked. After reaching the selected temperature, an audio alarm will sound. Since the thermometer offers wireless operation, there's no need to miss out on the party in order to constantly check on dinner. In fact, the main unit can receive the probe signal from up to 330 feet away. In addition, the thermometer speaks in five languages (English, Spanish, German, French, and Danish), offers a low-battery indicator, and its probe detaches from the sensor for easy cleaning. Two AA batteries for the main unit and two AAA batteries for the transmitter come included. The main unit measures 5-3/5 by 2-3/4 by 1-1/2 inches, and the remote unit measures 3-2/5 by 3-2/5 by 1-1/5 inches.
This model is about $43. Other similar items range from $20-$50. Check them out!
