Since this is the FMB! Thread, Thermoworks has some smoking hot deals on Thermapens. FMB! Swore by Thermoworks and got me started. I then got my parents and my buddies started.

FMB must have had a trust fund for kitchen and grilling gadgets. If there is ever a yard sale I will show up with a box truck...He had nice stuff except for his trash can smoker.
I do not care if it's so accurate that it's only off by 1/2 of 1/2 of a degree (TW is ±0.7°F) no hand held thermometer is worth $80 ($60 on sale) when the new stuff does it with wifi or hardwired with great for a fraction of the cost. I have this at $50 Temperature Accuracy: ±1.8°F 3 year advanced replacement warranty ![]() For $20 (on sale for $16) this has a temperature accuracy: ±1.8°F with a 3 AR year warranty. ![]() For $24 it has 0.9F accuracy (vs TW's 0.7), 3 second read and 3X the warranty Advanced Replacement) than the TW at a savings of $45. ![]() If FMB didn't have said "Gadget" trust fund, IMHO, He would own ThermoWorks |

Did you get the pink, green or gray unit? You mentioned the wifey....
![]() ![]() My job paid for mine, we were giver $50 plus tax for co-virus thermos. I just asked for a generic receipt. I will look forward to reviews on the Smoke X as they appear to be a lot alike and accuracy is the same. |

Thermoworks has good products. As stated by everybody in industry. FMB! and his wife both worked and didn't have kids. So if he wanted to drop a coin or two and get the industry standard, I can't blame him. I have kids and bought it. So what do you do? Roll up in here and talk a mountain of shit on a dead man because he bought a $60 handheld instead of your $50 one that is slower and less accurate. But good for you I guess. I'll just go ahead and not talk shit on a dead man. |

I said that TODAY he would buy something that was a better value.
You have to admit he was obsessed with kitchen gadgets.... Quote:

As always, to some extent I'm regretting having saved coin on my vertical smoker. Don't get me wrong, it's nice and it wasn't a lot of bank, but this Cuisinart vertical smoker has not automatic temp control and that SUCKS. Even if it was off by a bit, I could adjust that if I had reading that told me how much I needed to fudge the temp by to get what I'm looking for. So basically I'm slipping the difference between what my free-standing oven guage inside says, what the smoker's guage says, and what the electronic probe is reporting. None agree... I know this is one of the main complaints that's out there, "what is 225, what is 250....?", but it's really pointless when you're having to run outside every 20 minutes to adjust the knob in hopes of keeping it close. Add to it that once the water pan goes dry the temp spikes, not to mention when the sun comes out (or goes down), and you might as well get a cooler of beer and hang next to the smoker. And it seems like Cuisinart went out of their way to make refilling the water tray and the chip container almost impossible.
While it's done some pretty good work, I think I might allow this one to suffer an accident and buy one that solves all these problems.. |

Nothing about anyone buying anything now, just FMB! having a kitchen gadget trust fund, implying that he spent money on gadgets like trust fund babies - i.e. like a moron. There are 2 things in that post. 1. you espousing the benefits of your knockoff products. 2. you shitting on a dead man. Spin it whatever way you want. You're just being a miserable asshole. But whatever. Do you. You're entitled to be a miserable asshole. You just have to own it when you do. I'm done mucking up the thread with you being a jackass. Do you man. Do you. |

Coop, I’m done with you. Keep being a ****ing shithead that needlessly shits on dead men.
If you were a 10 year old I’d tell you there is a more tactful way to say, “these are good thermometers too, and cheaper!” Without shitting on a dead man. But since you’re not 10, I’ll leave you to be you. |
