• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Anyone have a supplier or a resource to buy Thermapen's. Went to a class Saturday and saw one of these bad boys in action, gotta have one, If I have to bite the bullet and buy one off of thermoworks site I will, just thought I would ask before spending the money.

Just go on the web to their website and you can buy them direct from the manufacturer. I think they are $85 or so.
 
Bought mine directly from the manufacturer myself.....OMG what a great item.

I bought mine off amazon but I checked around quite a bit and couldn't ever find anything significantly cheaper (maybe a buck or two). Works awesome! it's so quick that sometimes I wonder if it's accurate but in checking, I found that it is!
 
I want a couple, but the wife will wonder what's wrong with the Nu-Temps. I'll just have to wait till bonus time.
 
I got mine off the themapen website. Just got it today cant wait to try it out.
 
I got mine last December and it is worth every penny.
I bought it at a local store and got 20 percent off as the store was having a special promo on all items.

I say buy one!

Where in NJ?
 
I have a Nu Temp one.

Much better.

It has the probe, but it also has infra red.

You'd be surprised how close surface temp it to internal, (on like a 7 hr butt or 12 hr briskett) with the infra red.

Plus you get to play with it.

Their is a thermapen on ebay for $53 but it is in the UK. I wonder how much shipping is from there to the US
 
Thanks, I'm biting the bullet, I HAVE TO GET ONE...damn this hobby is getting expensive, bosslady is going to ground me and take my debit card before its all said and done, but I'll have my thermapen, after 15 years its easier to ask for forgivness then permission.:lol:

My wife bought a Thermapen for me at Christmas. She was skeptical, but she bought it since I wanted it. We're probably going to buy another one since she likes using it so much in the kitchen!

Check into the one in Europe carefully. I think the part number is different than a US unit (degrees F vs. degrees C) and I don't know if it is switchable.

I bought from the mfg web site since I couldn't find a better price. I tried to get a group buy going here but at the time no one was interested.
 
I read a story a while back on a different forum. A lady had a brand new thermopen. She was so happy w/it while checking a ham in her oven for the holidays. She took the temp of the meat and closed the oven door back shut. Guess what she forgot to remove?????? Spensive mistake.

I use mine for checking temps of chicken thighs when were doing fundraiser monthly chicken dinners here in my neighborhood. I also check the calabration of it against other thermometers just to make sure they all agree. Awesome device in my opinion.

Besides, asking for permission sets a BAAAAD precedent!
