Meat Thermometers
 

Anyone have a brand of meat thermometer (probe with display external
to oven) that lasts more than one turkey season?

Seems to be something about the probes getting corrupted.

Maybe roll your own?

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Check out Omega Engineering.

What you're looking for is a probe you can insert into the bird with
leads long enough to get to a meter with the oven door closed.

I hope the $20 one I just bought from Lowes lasts a while. I have seen
them working well on an outside grill with chicken. It has Silicon
type wire going to the meter. I would not use it on an indoor oven for
fear of damaging the seal on the door. Self cleaning ovens are very
handy!

check out Sur La Table. You can get a good one there. Pricey but they
last. Closest one to you is probably Ray Road. We always went to the
one in Kierland and there is one at Fashion Square on Camelback and
SDL road.

I do miss AJ's. Good news is a French chef opened up a shop here.
Dont know what possessed him to hop the pond and pick Marble Falls,
TX but I'm glad he did. The breads and soups are excellent. Life is
good, I can have a big egg/sausage/bacon breakfast burrito one day
and a ham/cheese/mushroom croissant the next.

I just drove through Marble Falls on my way to Lago Vista. Nice looking
little town.
I was on a job in Dripping Springs and thought avoiding 290 traffic and
MoPac traffic
would be nice....
