    Thermapen, the Rolls Royce of Digital Thermometers that stays consistent use after use. You will have the perfect recipe results using a Thermapen MK4

    I have used digital thermometers for years (mostly for checking temperatures of food like meat). They are a simple tool that makes life easier and helps to confirm that your food has reached proper safety temps so that you don’t get sick.

    But did you know that using a digital thermometer also ensures that you achieve the same results time after time?

    This is not a paid product review. I love to review products I use for YOU, my viewers. So feel free to ask me questions. I'm happy to answer and remember. I don't sugar coat anything. Just real honest opinions or real use products.

    Are All Digital Thermometers The Same?

    While digital thermometers all do the same thing (tell the temp of the food) they are not all created equally.

    I have personally found over the years that the cheaper brands tend to be less reliable and achieving a consistent result is challenging. This not only means your food turns out incorrectly, but it also puts your family’s health at risk.

    How Does Using a Digital Thermometer Help You in the Kitchen?

    Having a digital thermometer means that you can check the temperatures of your food to ensure that it is cooked properly. You can check the temperature of everything from baked bread to meat. Knowing that the temp is correct before serving your food can help to put your mind at ease.

    This is why it’s so important to have a quality working digital thermometer like the Thermoworks Thermapen MK4.

    How Does the Thermapen Work?

    The Thermoworks Thermapen MK4 is a Rolls Royce of digital thermometers. It can precisely tell you the temperature of your foods almost instantly(about 2 or 3 seconds). The Thermapen MK4 is perfect for all kinds of recipes.

    There is no better way to get the same results than to monitor the temperature. I use my Thermapen when I bake, grill, cook on the stovetop, or even when I use my Pressure Cooker to ensure I've reached the proper temperature for foods. Cooking by temperature is the only sure way to achieve the same outcomes in recipes.

    Other awesome things it can do include:

    • The Thermapen also is easily stored by folding the thermometer into the closed position.
    • Senses the lighting and turn on a backlight so you can see in darker conditions. Perfect for camping or grilling in the dark!
    • The screen rotates so you don’t have to cock your head funny to look at it sideways.
    • Your AAA batteries can keep it alive for up to 3,000 hours. Which is about 4 or 5 months if you left it on without ever turning it off. So imagine the lifespan if you only used it for a few minutes a day.
    • Multiple Color Options! Multiple colors is great if you want to buy several as gifts or have one color designated towards a certain baked or grilled items. And there are glow in the dark sleeves you can buy separately so they stand out more in the dark! 

    Where is the Thermapen Made?

    While ThermoWorks is located just south of Salt Lake City, Utah. Unlike other companies this one doesn’t outsource for tech support or customer service. Everyone is knowledgable and helpful making their customer service top notch!

    The Thermapens are hand crafted in England by a family owned factory. Having the knowledge that your customer support is well taken care of and knowing that your Thermapen was made by hand and not some faulty machine also gives a great amount of reassurance that the proper care was exercised and that you got the quality you paid for!

    What is the BEST Thermapen?

    The Thermapen MK4 (the one I’m currently raving on about) is the best of the best. If you’re looking for great quality at an affordable price range other options are available. The Thermo POP is a budget friendly option and currently ranked #2 on their products list.

    How do you Calibrate a Thermapen?

    Thermaworks describes it best. So check out their easy to follow step by steps on this Thermapen Calibration Procedure.

    With such a simple to use and quality piece of technology in my hands, it’s no wonder why I love my Thermapen MK4. I continue to recommend them over and over again and I wouldn’t hesitate to invest in a quality digital thermometer for your kitchen needs. It’s a heaven-sent product you didn’t know you were missing!
