Your first sentence hits it on the head, OVEN. Lid thermos read temps as an oven would, "we" don't necessarily use our grills as ovens, so we are more concerned with the temp AT the grilling surface...the only time I would consider using a lid thermo would be in a smoker.. overall temp is what you're watching because we are slow "cooking", not directly trying to grill the meat.... just my observation though.
