I don't have one...what I do have is the Original Pink Finger!

I haven't been able to justify the expense yet.

I currently use a "Taylor 806 E Weekend Warrior Digital Thermometer" that I bought from AMAZON for $15.82. Takes all of 3 seconds to give an accurate read.

Fast enough for ANYTHING that I need a temp for.

No, I can't justify the cost.

Last 3 weeks many people on the Dutch Brethren have ordered a Thermapen...including me.
Probably they don't sell them in Holland...we had to order them from the UK,without shipping cost.

Guess what's the most populair colour over here.....ORANGE!!!

Dale P · 02-05-2011, 06:53 AM

I think that the T-Pen is worth the cost. I can pretty much tell when food is done too but with the super fast red T-Pen there leaves no doubt.

trekmstr · 02-06-2011, 09:49 PM

cowgirl · 02-07-2011, 04:38 PM

The Thermapen has taken the guesswork out of a lot my cookin'. When the battery went dead during the my last cook, I was lost...

TIMMAY · 02-12-2011, 10:59 AM

No thermapen for me. I want a Mav 732 first.

mmmmeat · 02-13-2011, 02:12 AM

I am now in the thermapen club, and the fastest group with the orange beast

BBQ_MAFIA · 02-13-2011, 07:40 AM

I have a Retro Gray Thermapen...........

laflaone · 04-10-2011, 08:31 AM

I have a Thermoworks pocket thermometer. Digital display. 6 sec response advertised, but is quicker. Does same things as the thermopen, but costs $19. I also bought one of their IR-GUN-S laser infrared thermometers. On sale now for $49. This thing has a lot of uses besides checking the interior temps of your grill.

Same here!!! I was told last weekend that it was at least 15 years old. SWEEEEEET!!

At this point I can't decide what the fastest is between Yellow, White or Red.
