I bought the thermometer for my husband's deep fryer. He uses the fryer for frying fish when we have a big get-together. He wasn't sure about the length, afraid that it would get in the way when he dumped the finished fish into the serving pan, he made a copper hook that he fastened onto both the thermometer and the fryer pan. Worked great and he likes the thermometer because it is easy to read and seems very accurate. He uses it last weekend when we had a neighborhood fish fry. We served over 80 people, fried some 550 lake Erie perch. Um, good.

I have been searching for this product for a long time, having seen many cooking shows useing one. It is great, I also purchased one for my mom. I like the fact that it has an adjustable slide clip when you clip it on a pan it stays and wanting to fall in, easy to read. I would recommend this product to everyone, they will not be disappointed.

Just what I needed!
by SIDNEY, LA

Most of my pots are very shallow, so I was glad to finally find something with a "spacer" where the bulb didn't sit directly on the bottom of the pan.

This was a replacement for the same type thermometer that was over 15 years old. The letters and numbers on the old one had faded and it was difficult to read. It had been an EXCELLENT thermometer.

Great thermometer. Like that it is encased in metal so thermometer doesn't set directly on bottom of pan. Easy to handle and store.

I've been wanting to purchase a thermometer for quite some time and am glad I chose this one. I've used it once so far and it worked perfectly. I like the idea that it's not only a deep fry thermometer and can be used for other types of recipes.

Cooking Tip From the Food Network Kitchens

Actual oven temperatures can often vary wildly from what the dial says. Use an oven thermometer and make sure your 350 degree setting is really 350 degrees.
