This is the grate thermometer I use. It's bimetal, like the lid, but I can place it anywhere on the grate.  It works really well.

The price is right too!!

Do you notice any time delay with your food while you open the lid to check? I do like the idea of a probe with external read so I can leave the lid closed.

What do you mean time delay?  I don't think opening it occasionally to check temp extends the cooking duration. With this grate thermo and the lid, I can eye the lid temp and occasionally check the grate temp. If the lid temp goers up, down, or spikes, it is time to check the grate temp.
