Wirleless meat thermometer for the grill

Anonymous
I'm thinking of buying one for my dad for Fathers Day. Anyone have one they use and like?

I've been using this one and really like it: http://www.amazon.com/Oregon-Scientific-AW131-Wireless-Thermometer/dp/B000RL2ZGO

The Maverick ET-73 is also highly recommended.

Taylor makes some really nice meat thermometers.

That one looks good. I like one that lets you set the temperature wherever you want instead of doneness. The reason is that I like to set it to 90 degrees or so and then when the alarm goes off I can flip it then up the temperature to the final doneness.

I have one that does this, but it is ass-backwards in every other area so I can't recommend it. If anyone knows one that has this ability, I'd love to know.

The Oregon Scientific let's you set a manual temperature (I never use the presets), and it will go off when that is reached. Actually, it warns you when it is five degrees below that it is "Almost done", then again when it hits the target temperature. You could then increase it to your final temperature and it will go off again when it reaches that. I can't speak for the Maverick, but it probably has similar features.
