Excellent Steak
I bought this to replace a cheap meat thermometer as I found it difficult to get my steak cooked as I wanted. On my first attempt I got the steak just right. The app was easy to set up although it took a few attempts to find how to set it up for the kind of steak I was cooking.
Amazing produc
I rarely leave reviews but I must for this product. I use it all the time for roast chickens and they are always perfect but today I tried doing a thick steak with reverse sear using the easy to follow videos and wow, beyond restaurant quality. The device is a little temperamental with connectivity when it’s in the oven and the door is shut, but you have to improvise there will be some kind of position it works perfectly. I just sit my phone and receiver on the oven door handle for example and it always stays connected for me. Will give product 5 stars but could still be improved for above reasons.

Excellent temperature accuracy and usage
No wires no fuss easy setup and works excellently with long cooks over 8 hours. Had no issues with battery life or connectivity and would defo recommend to anyone for both BBQ and the kitchen.
Great for low and slow BBQ but the range is not 50m
I bought this mostly to use on my kamado and have found that it is great for low and slow cooking things such as pulled pork. The app is good and easy to use with lots of different presets for different types and cuts of meat. This tells you what temp to cook to as per meaters recommendation for rare, medium, well done, pulled, etc.
The product in my experience struggles in two areas:
Range, this is nowhere near 50m even in an outdoor environment with a clear line of sight between my phone and the block. A good workaround for this is to use a second device such as an old phone and leave this next to the block and connected to your home wifi. As long as your personal phone/device is on the same wifi and logged into the meater account with the same app you will then be able to monitor your cook anywhere within the house.
Dealing with ‘the stall’, when cooking meat low and slow you will almost inevitably experience ‘the stall’. This is where the temperature of your meat plateaus or even drops while cooking. Meater is absolutely useless at identifying this and goes wild with the cook time predictions somethings reading circa 24hours to go when in actual fact there are only four or so hours to go. I would like to see this address in the future and would probably give a 5 star review if this wasn’t so erratic.

Removes the guesswork
A great product and a great phone app. Easy to set up and monitor.
Perfect companion for those low and slow cooks
Used this on a short rib of beef slow cook and was perfect to be able to monitor the cook on my phone and keep track of temperature. Would highly recommend!
Brings convenience and precision to the Braai / BBQ
I’ve been cooking with the Meater Plus for almost two months now and it has delivered perfect results each and every time. Whether a whole chicken or a thick-cut T-bone steak, the results have been delicious – cooked to perfection. The app is easy to use and has a good range – meaning you can socialise and keep an eye on what’s happening on the braai / BBQ. While somewhat pricey, the benefit is that this has added an additional layer of confidence to my cooking.
Simple to use do it all meat thermomete
How strange… owned this for a month, then the day after its first use, Amazon asks me for a review!
Made some impeccable smoked Tomahawk steaks with it last night. Temperature accuracy was spot on and the meat came out perfectly. If you’re searing with it in the meat, just be careful to ensure the ambient side of the probe isn’t directly over the coals or it will overheat but that’s quickly sorted by a minutes cooldown time and it worked perfectly afterwards.
Helped to make an excellent cook!

Perfectly cooked mea
The meat probe connects to an app that you have to download to a mobile or tablet.
It is easy to set up and guides you through. We have used it on the BBQ, oven, fry pan and in the airfryer and with many types of meat, both large joints as well as things like chicken breasts. Everything cooked using the probe has come out perfectly cooked – would highly recommend.
Great item
We bought a new barbecue and this item works to perfectio
A Must for perfect results
If you want perfect results from your cooking, take the guess work out.
Meater will do the job.
Keith Brooks UK
Essential low and slow kit, a rotisserie revelatio
Should have had one long ago, much easier than the BGE flame boss food probe.
Flawless bone in pork belly over 7 hrs
Brilliant for rotisserie cooks.
The Bluetooth does not work through walls but will close to a window. WiFi may be better. But, you don’t need minute by minute cover just a handy guide.
Great in an indoor kitchen range.
Well worth it.

It’s so easy to use
The only thing I can hold against this product is that the cooking temperatures are set for the American market not the UK, as a now retired chef I know the food cooking temps and if I had serve the Pork pink as is allowed in America I would have been out of a job so as long as you know what temperature you should cook the various meats for then it’s a great product.
If you’re considering buying this device, do it!!
I don’t know what to say. After years of using standard probe thermometers this thing is a game changer. No need to open the oven, barbecue, or smoker. It’ll tell you what the temperature is inside the cooking device as well as the meat you’re cooking. Well worth the price tag, I’ve got my money’s worth already!
Very Accurate Readings.
Great as an addition to your usual temperature probe set when bbqing.
You’ll still need an oven temp probe to let you know when your oven is up to temp but once in and cooking this is great.
The alarm feature is super handy to keep you alerted to the progress of your cook.
Definitely worth treating yourself to one.
Great gadge
Easy to use and I’ve not gone wrong (no under or overcooked meat.) Used it with turkey, chicken, gammon, beef and pork steaks.
It told me my whole chicken was ready a whole 30mins before the official cook time, checked the bird and it wasn’t wrong, meat cooked, juices clear and no dried out breast.
Not used it on the bbq yet.
Love it.

Top product.
Used for a number of roasts and grills. At first I didn’t trust it because cooking times seem short but now I do exactly what it says. Been right every time. Would be neater if it didn’t require a Bluetooth ‘bridge’ to cloud, but that hasn’t really been a problem for my cooking. Always been in the house.
Fantastic
Bought as a Christmas gift for my husband. Beyond happy with its performance. He does do my head in showing me what temperature it is at at any given stage on the app, but very happy with purchase.
Does everything it claims to
Ok, this product is an extravagance. It’s very expensive BUT it works. Means I get the food in the oven and can go watch the football in the sitting room, check my smart phone for the cooking progression and when I do then get the meat out of the oven it is cooked to perfection. As I said an extravagance but I would buy one again if I didn’t have one.

Awesome, which i had taken the plunge before now
I use this pretty much all the time now including in the oven. Very pleased so far, app is simple and intuitive. Setup was a bit fiddly and i do lose connection sometimes well inside of 50m else it would be a 5.

Very pleased
Wish I had purchased thus a long time ago. I have done rare/medium beef that I was alway wary about doing but armed with the MEATER I felt comfortable doing this and was outstanding. Lamb done to fall off the bone did quite literally fall off the bone after resting time and was so tender and tasty. I have only just started with this but I am so much more comfortable cooking more expensive meat to how I want to cook it.
Superb! More than just a smart probe
I’d wanted a Meater for a while and when my cheap 4-probe wired thermometer gave up the ghost, I decided to upgrade to a Meater+. Very, very glad I did.
Let me get the “cons” out first.
– Firstly, this a big probe — it will leave a sizeable hole in whatever you are cooking. If it is a beef rib roast or a whole chicken, you’re absolutely fine. Duck breasts or smaller, I’d stick to something more traditional. That said, the Meater is aimed at meats that take longer (i.e., you can walk away while it is cooking) — so this is forgivable.
– Next, water resistant not waterproof. You can clean it in the sink without worrying about ruining it, but if you’re boiling a ham — again, you need to stick to your more traditional probe. This was more of an issue for me, as it is genuinely a useful scenario for the Meater that I cannot use it for.
– Expensive. I got it on a Black Friday sale and I still winced at the price. I got one probe for 3x the price of its 4-probe predecessor! I want another 2 of these now to cover my larger cooks, but I’ll be buying them slowly over time.
However, all these things can be forgiven with the pros that Meater+ brings. Firstly, the app is really nicely designed, super simple to use and set up. Initial setup did require me to “update my probe” which took close to 40 minutes, but once that was done, everything has been smooth sailing since. Select your meat type, the cut and your desired “doneness” and the rest is taken care of.
I love the historical view of your cooks too. The app will save your data, showing you the ambient temperate and the internal temperature over the course of the cook. I can see where I opened the oven/BBQ and when/how long the meat was rested.
Which takes me on to resting! Far and away the nicest feature is that the app predicts the resting temperature for you. It knows how fast the meat is warming up and your desired target temperature, so it will tell you to take the meat out of the oven to rest not AT the target temperature, but before it with a resting guideline, so that you have perfectly rested meat and the carryover heat has brought it to your perfect doneness. Sure, you can do all of that traditionally, but calculating it all properly requires far too much effort. Meater+ gives your meat that extra bit of finesse with ZERO effort on your part.
Battery life and maintenance have all been super straightforward. I’ve done several long cooks, with no battery alerts and it is super easy to clean and put back in its bamboo-style charging station.
In short, I love this little thing and will be purchasing a couple more. They are expensive though, there’s no denying — so I’d recommend for BBQ enthusiasts and home cooks that regularly cook large, expensive pieces of meat.

Excelle
So far I’m impressed with this. Love the fact its wireless – means I can put this in my joint on the BBQ Rotisserie and NOT have to keep opening it and letting the heat out to check the temp. Same with the oven but at least you can see through the glass on that.
Love the fact it gives you the length of cooking time remaining – this helps juggle when to put other dishes on – eg Potatoes, veg etc. made it painless to co-ordinate Christmas dinner this time. Normally I get suprised if the meat is ready early and having to wait for potatoes to crisp up.
Love you could potentially never overcook something again (or undercook!)
Very easy to use, very easy to understand – if you want your beef Well it tells you. I tried another Temperature pen and it was accurate.

Excellent if you trust i
Easy to use app that you have to wait a while to get an accurate cooking time. The Christmas turkey was moist and wonderful. My only tip is to trust the device as the cooking temp seems early, but it accounts for and shows resting time. It needs to be trusted to work, so follow the prompts to remove and rest the mea
Amazing results
Took the plunge and purchased the MEATER+ as a present for my 50th. So easy to use with amazing results. No issues with Bluetooth connectivity from garden to kitchen but cooking in the kitchen the ‘control box’ has to be next to the oven door. Just wish I’d got the four probe version now.

can be bette
The connection isn’t as good as I expected. In the oven it keeps getting disconnected and I live in a one bedroom apartment so it’s way less than the range.
The app is easy to use and I liked it.
It seems it can handle the heat well.
The heat accuracy is very good – i found my oven isn’t that precise.

Easy to use and works well
How brilliant it works and was easy to setup. You can use it for more than meat. I tried it making a banana cake which is hard to get it evenly cooked. The timer went off some 10 minutes while the Meater told me the core temp had not been reached, yes I could have used a normal temperature probe which would mean losing heat in the oven. Marks out of 100% =

Great buy this tool, easy to set up and
use. I never lost the signal and the
range is very good. My first cook a
chicken came out moist and cooked to
perfection. Wish I had known about
this ages ago!
Awesome probe, best I've ever used.
Best meat thermometer/probe I have ever owned. Smack on every time and got great range of preset options so makes it so easy to use. Used it from 1/2 hour cooks to 19 hour cooks and works all the way through every time. Love using it. Only down on it is the range from it when you have in bbq outside and you go inside, the range is a bit frustrating.
Dead easy to use and well designed
I love it when things are well thought out and do their job well. I’ve tried other meat probes but the eater is superb and the phone app works perfectly, even keeping track of past cooking sessions.
I used it last night to hot smoke a turkey fillet.

MEATER plus, super good + awesome
Amazing product, shame there is no charging indicator but ones it’s had it’s time it is a brilliant bit of kit! Takes all the hard work out of cooking. So clear and simple! I love it, so pleased I bought it. Don’t forget to pull out the tab to get the battery going. Was a bit unclear to me but the battery charges the probe. Your iOS device only sees the probe when you remove it from the block.
Expensive but worth it.
This is admittedly expensive but it’s got fantastic form and function.
It’s beautifully designed and incredibly easy to use.
I’ve been getting really fed up with over cooked meat because I was worried about undercooking my meat and poisoning myself. This completely eliminates that possibility.
The app that it uses tells what the American food Authority (can’t remember the letters) suggest are safe meat internal temperatures.
It gives Celsius or Fahrenheit
It’s like apple made a meat thermometer. Thats as high a compliment as I go.
I absolutely love it.

Fab BBQ accessory
I got tired of messing the steak up, particularly when we had a lot of guests. MEATER has made a massive difference, every steak and meat cut now comes off perfectly every time. Great buy, best BBQ accessory I have!
Make an average cook into a great cook.
Easy to set up.
Easy to use.
Great form factor.
Accurate data and graphs available should you want to get granular.
I’ve already BBQ’d the best chicken and reverse seared the best steak I’ve ever cooked. I’m not great at cooking, this makes me great.
It makes me the cook I want to be.
Fantastic Meater+
My son bought a Meater+ first and it took him a little while to convince me to buy one. What a revelation, so easy to use and has given me perfect results every time. It’s important to read the instructions to make sure insertion is correct.
So what did I think of my Meater+? I bought a second one.
Brilliant produc
It took me a bit to get my app connected to the meater probe but once on fine love the app tells you everything did he best fillet steak I’ve had for ages done medium to well done great produc
It actually does what is says it will do
Make sure the probe is in the centre of the meat and you will get a perfectly cooked meal every time.
Keep an eye on the time though as it can jump a bit at the beginning until it has truly calculated the time and you must allow for the resting time at the end of the cook.
Excellent tool
Have used for a couple of months now and absolutely revolutionised Sunday roasts and bbqs. Very very happy
Expensive but I'm glad I bought it!
Based on one cook so far, I’m loving my Meater+. I was looking for a wireless temperature probe that I could use in the oven and bought this on a bit of a whim.
I did a topside of beef roast, just followed the instructions on the app and it came out perfectly medium rare and was delicious. I would have cremated it if I’d followed the instructions on the packet so that’s a tenner saved already!
The app is really good, I love that it estimates the cooking (and resting!) time, takes all the guesswork out of the equation.
You can also see how accurate your oven is due to the dual sensors. My oven appears to be about 10c out when set to 180c. Interesting.
My only gripe is that a fair bit of the probe has to be inserted into the food so it’s not good for smaller items which is a bit of a shame.

Great product, not so good range
It’s expensive! It works just fine except the range isn’t as advertised. Stated up to 50mtrs but I don’t even get 10. In my instance that’s just fine. Great and easy to use product, awesome app.
Just wish range wasn’t so glitchy
Perfect cooking results every time and super easy to clean and maintain.
Best way to increase range in my view was to connect a local device to the probe such as an I pad or a phone that stops at home, then you can go anyway you wish, and your phone will connect anywhere in the world via the cloud. Good stuff

Cooked to perfectio
If you want your meat cooked to perfection, you need this tool.
And as a gadget lover, it takes cooking to the next level.
No more guesswork
I have temperature probes… but they don’t measure ambient heat and take that into account, they don’t predict cooking time and they’re fiddly.
Cooked a beef wellington last night with this.. it was perfect, just like everything else I’ve cooked using it. I bought one for my parents who just think it is amazing (they’re in their 70’s)!

Excellent Bit Of Ki
Bought on
e month ago. We’ve cooked joints of Lamb & pork together with a roast chicken and all were perfect. The hardest part was learning to trust it !
Highly recommended.
A Grimshaw, North Yorks
Simple to use.
Really enjoyed cooking with this, did the job well and the rotisserie ham tasted awesome.
Good gadge
Bought this for a Christmas present so opened it Christmas morning hoping to use it for the turkey but had to charge it up first, was a little tricky to set up but managed in the end, all in all it worked fine and look forward to using it in the future stylish and mode
So worth the money - unbelievable
I rarely write reviews but I am so impressed by this product I need to share.
I tested this out on a beef joint and was really impressed with the results and I kept checking the meater app every 5 minutes in anticipation. I was sure the joint was underdone but it was absolutely perfect. The fact that the app tells you how long to rest is so neat. This is all done by measuring the meats internal temp, the outside temp and the target temp to work out the time required to “meat” (see the pun!) the right cook.
I then tried this on a roast chicken and the results were so good. I normally brine my roast for the moistness but i made a chicken without brining and the meater saved 15 minutes from what the chicken instructions said and it was fully cooked and super succulent.
During xmas, my brother cooked a lamb leg and we forgot about the meater. We realised 10 minutes fomr the time we though the leg of lamb would be medium but on inserting the probe. We were informed to take it out as it was already well done! we should have used it from the start!!
Finally, I tried a pan-cooked steak on a cast iron pan. Normally, i do 2-3 minutes each side and depending on the thickness, it comes out well done (if thin) or rare (if thick). The steak in the picture above took 12 minutes in total and it was perfectly medium. I would have taken it off to early and not let it rest. The steak was perfection. Pink inside an
People would bark at the price but to save hassle of checking every so often this takes pressure out of cooking (and getting other dinner time bits and pieces ready). If it’s on black Friday, it will be a xmas present for sure.

During xmas, my brother cooked a lamb leg and we forgot about the meater. We realised 10 minutes fomr the time we though the leg of lamb would be medium but on inserting the probe. We were informed to take it out as it was already well done! we should have used it from the start!!
Finally, I tried a pan-cooked steak on a cast iron pan. Normally, i do 2-3 minutes each side and depending on the thickness, it comes out well done (if thin) or rare (if thick). The steak in the picture above took 12 minutes in total and it was perfectly medium. I would have taken it off to early and not let it rest. The steak was perfection. Pink inside an
People would bark at the price but to save hassle of checking every so often this takes pressure out of cooking (and getting other dinner time bits and pieces ready). If it’s on black Friday, it will be a xmas present for sure.
It works
It works really well. So far I’ve cooked goose, turkey, a cockerel and a fore rib of beef. In every case I’ve had better results than I’ve ever achieved before. The results are absolutely ‘on the point’. The app works fine, it’s really easy to use and it creates game changing results. I don’t write many reviews, but this deserves credit. I’m very impressed.
This really works
If you care about the meat you eat you really need this. Takes the guessing out of timing without opening the oven door.
Don't hesitate, just get this
I’ve only had my Meater+ a few days and already cooked several steaks, a brisket and some duck breasts. Not only were the results spot on perfect, but it takes away all the stress and uncertainty, making cooking more enjoyable.
Stupidly easy to set up and use. I wish I’d have bought one ages ago.
My best gadget of 2019
Literally saved my bacon on Christmas Day. Couldn’t find it just before the crucially timed turkey oven entry. Even adding it after it’d started, averted disaster. The Airbnb over wasn’t working properly. Without this excellent gadget. My dinner for 24 would of been a bust!!!
BBQ from inside the house!
Used this in my BBq hut, works well. Range managed to get to the house but did disconnect if I went any further than the picture shown..but this was fine. Cooks meat well seems to be accurate so all round very pleased with this product…feels good quality and worth the high price tag.
Simple and fantastic
Does exactly what it is meant to do – help you cook meat to perfection! Simple easy to use (although if the meat is resting in a microwave – to stop the dog eating it – you need to put the receiver inside too as the microwave shields it)
Great for rotisseries
Works better than the original model. Wish they’d colour coded it so I can tell the difference between the two variants.
o more cable probes........
perfect for the bbq, can’t really fault anything, not the cheapest but you get what you pay for. Will be ideal for my kettle rotisserie, the resting time indicator is spot on. Used it on a brisket and had the perfect result.
The MEATER produced perfect results!
This was my first use of the MEATER and it was a total success. Easy to follow as you cook, allows resting time as the meat continues to cook a little and resulted in a perfect piece of beef. I would thoroughly recommend.
Great thermomete
Excellent, thought it was a bit pricey for a thermometer, but the app and everything is fab
Works ok but expensive
Very good idea, worked well so far but only used 4 times.
Works on rotisserie which is what it was purchased for.
Signal distance could be better.
Very expensive
I absolutely love outdoor cooking on the bbq and this meater+ Really assists with the cook.
I have purchased a rotisserie and with a normal probe it’s not possible to monitor the internal temperature due to the cable getting wrapped around the rotisserie.
With this you just fit the probe inside the protein of choice and push it in to the line marked on the probe.
The app is very simple to install and have on your phone.
You simply choose what you are cooking and the way you like to eat it (rare,medium well for example) and it will tell you the temperature you should cook to, when to remove for resting and a little alarm to tell you it’s 5 minutes before you should pull the protein off, it will also estimate the cook time with the temperature of the grill and I assume how fast the internal temperature is currently moving. It also gives you a graph of how things are going on internal temperature of the protein and the temperature of the grill.
It saves previous cooks so you can go back and see how they went. It could assist in helping try to improve and see what went right or wrong.
Setting the meater+ up with amazon Alexa is very simple. I just added meater as a skill via the Alexa app. It’s not essential to have but it puts a smile on my face and let’s be honest it’s a cool trick to impress the guests. Most of my friends if they bbq food it’s to how burnt you like it. With this brilliant little probe you really cool to how the food should be.
It’s very easy to clean afterwards. Then put back in to its wooden charging dock that also seconds as a Bluetooth extender.
Overall I’m super happy with this product and would definitely recommend if you can afford the product go for it you won’t regret it.

Great product and really liked it. The range on the probe seems very short. Although to be fair hadn’t charged it for the recommend four hours before use. However that was the only issue I had. Previously used other probes which for temperature readings are just as good but you do have the issue with wires. However the best thing for me was the estimate around how long left to cook. Enabled me to at least make sure everything was ready about the same time

"Wow"
This product is amazing, we have only used it three times, Pork, Lamb & Chicken and on each occasion the meat has been perfect. We always used thermometers in our cooking but rearly produced such quality results as this product does. I am not one for leaving feed back as you expect that when you purchase something it should do as it states on the packet however this product has really WOWED me.
Firstly, this product did not arrive, so I had to purchase one from elsewhere, however obviously the product is identical.
This is a great product, though I have only used it on the BBQ so far. The repeater is a great feature, I can leave the charging block near the BBQ then walk down the other end of the house and still have signal.
Really easy to use and im not a great cook. Managed to BBQ a fair bit, including whole chickens, and it came out perfectly cooked. Yes it’s expensive, and probably a waste of money for seasoned chefs or cooks, however for myself this ticks all the boxes!
I would not hesitate to buy again!

Well worth the cost, range and accuracy are spot on. Best way to monitor long slow cooks in my Kamado Joe.
Great addition to my BBQ toys
Really simple to set up with my android phone and ipad.
Connect to the cloud by leaving one smart device within range of the base station and you can then keep a watch on the cook from pretty much anywhere. From web page or phone app or even ask Alexa how things are going.
Set temperature alarms for the grill range as well as the meat internal temperature. Works really well.

Having been persuaded by my daughter to try this kitchen gadget I ordered the MEATER+ which was delivered promptly. The enclosed instructions are a bit brief but on finding there is a comprehensive website I got stuck into working it out. The app is now downloaded both on to my tablet and my phone.
Wow! I selected a leg of lamb for my first cook and it was easy to set up. The YouTube on the website explained how to insert the gadget in the thickest part of the meat and how important it is to thrust it in far enough to register accurately. It’s possible to adjust the temperature required by a few degrees either side of the pre-set which is advantageous once you determine exactly how you like your meat cooked.
I cook on an Everhot range which is similar (but I think better than) an AGA. You can set the oven temperature but you don’t keep changing the setting as with a conventional oven.
We were mesmerised by the display showing both the inside oven temperature adjusting to the introduction of the cold meat and the rising internal temperature of the joint as it cooked. Once the MEATER+ worked out how long it would take to complete the cooking phase, we were able to tear ourselves away and get on with the rest of the dinner.
I had never before appreciated how important it is to rest the meat after cooking is complete. The display showed how the internal temperature continued to rise after I took the joint out of the oven. Fascinating. The MEATER+ alerted me to the end of the resting time and we could eat!
I started with good meat but this temperature-controlled cooking ensured we ate absolutely amazing, perfectly cooked lamb. I was so pleased with myself, though the MEATER+ did all the work for me.
Next, I tried it with sirloin steak. Slipping the MEATER+ in sideways wasn’t as tricky as I had anticipated. Again, perfect cooking. This is really successful, confident cooking and although it’s not cheap to buy, the MEATER+ will make certain I never overcook, undercook or otherwise waste good food by poor cooking. It will pay for itself in practical terms over time but has already proved worth its cost in guaranteeing success every time.

This gadget really works. Tested on Goose, Lamb and rolled Pork the probe and software produced perfectly Cooked meat each time.
And it gives quickly confidence to set ones own temperature targets.
It is quite curious to see when cooked and resting the meat temperature continues to rise by about 4 degrees Celsius, so for even better results one quickly learns to factor this in.
So why 4 stars. I have a Rayburn (similar to an Aga) which has a fully iron door. When closed that severely limits the range and positioning of the phone receiver outside the oven. By trial and error I found where the phone needed to be.
Also when out of the oven, the range is attenuated by the thickness of walls etc.
However my circumstance I recognise is a severe test of the device. A windowless oven and 2 foot stone walls are not the norm for most kitchens.
As an oven meat thermometer it is absolutely superb, and takes away one anxiety when looking for that exact medium rare you might be looking for.

Love the look and the packaging. The app is easy to set up and use and gives you some great info to help not only the current cook but planning for future versions. No wires to burn out and the signal is great whether from our Neff oven or the Big Green Egg. I find it much easier to use than my Maverick with wired probes and restricted range. Ordered Tuesday arrived Wednesday – it doesn’t get much better than that AND that was on Standard delivery!
I’ve used it on Chicken, leg of lamb and rib of beef and it’s given me safe cooking with my desired finish to the meat (definitely medium rare rib!). I love and am looking forward to the turkey on the BGE, Christmas cooking just got easier!

I’ve been using a friends meater for a bit and was about time i got my own. It’s an amazing bit of kit with super results.
I have an iPhone and the app is super wasy to download and use and understand.
Cooking and using it is really simple. Select the meat and the type and then wait until it tell you it’s cooked. The app will also give you a rough time to be finished. What i love the most is the Cloud setting. This allows you to set up the probe on one device and then go out and about and be able to view your cook on a seperate device to keep an eye on. Great for those long cooks and if you want to pop to the shop or pub to help pass the time.
Really good all round look with regular updates on the app to improve your cook all the time.

Wow ! What an amazing product . Now cooking is so easy ! Very straightforward to set up especially with myself being such a technophobe . For the person who loves cooking and best of all for the person who struggles with timings this product is a mus
If you’re looking for a really great thermometer then look no further than the Meater +. Having no wires makes using the Meater very easy. The range isn’t an issue with this model. Whether you are using it on the barbecue or in the home, cooking food to the right temperature is simple. Steaks and a number of other meats are cooked to perfection using the apps presets. Great for the rotisserie too if you have one. You’ll love it.

So after using the original MEATER with great success for the past few months I decided to get another so I could cook 2 different types of meat at once.
This time I opted for the MEATER + for the extra range. Although I use the cloud feature from my iPad if I need to go out to the shops or pub, the MEATER + allows me to reach the whole house, garden and garage without the iPad!
MEATERs really are a game changer. Once you get to grips with how you like the cook and the resting times for your favourite meats, you just insert, press go and the app lets you know when it is done! Perfect every time! And the + adds even more range!!
The app is so simple that I’m going to get my dad one for Xmas too!
