Where did you purchase yours? I've been looking at these but it seems you can only get them from thermoworks is that correct?

Yes that's correct! Thermoworks maintains quality control through the vetting of their distributors. You may be able to pick up their gear at physical locations but definitely not on Amazon. Their customer service is great and for the few bucks of shipping, I'd still prefer to go throw them!

Most of my thermoworks orders arrive in 2-3 days depending on what time of day I place the order.  The also include a little bag of Jelly Belly's so that's a plus!

My thermoworks smoke reads 209 when water is boiling but 32.7 in the ice bath. Should I recalibrate or leave alone?

I don't know what their tolerance percentages are, but those numbers aren't actually far enough away to make any difference for BBQ or grilling meats or veggies. There are way too many other variables to consider.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Yeah I read the calibration that said 1.8 +- of 32 which I am but a few nights ago when I received it I used it on a hotdish in the oven and it was  50 degrees off when the hotdish was done. I'm wondering if I have a bad probe?

I don't know. I'd probably call Thermoworks and ask their support folks.

I was looking at one of these today since they are on sale.

It is too bad that they do not offer the smoke in a WiFi-only package where you get the gateway instead of the proprietary receiver. Apparently, you can use just the wifi bridge then you can throw the other controller in a drawer and never use it.

My Maverick probe took it's yearly dump so I decided to get the Smoke.  I have been really happy with my Thermopen and Dot.  Man the Smoke is nice.  If I had one complaint it's the lanyard, just not my thing. The curved base does not allow it to be standing either.  So I took the little metal wire bracket off my Maveric before I threw it away and glued it to the battery cover, works awesome now.
