Oops. I need a thermometer recommendation

The pro is a little longer and has backlit screen. Not worth the increase in price over standard imo.

I think it is supposed to read a little faster too? My buddy has the regular one. I should run a test!

It also auto rotates the display based on whether your using it in your right or left hand.

I got my mother a pro as a gift a couple years ago. I've used it and didn't notice a difference but it would be a good test to try them out simultaneously which I haven't done. Let us know what you find out.

Wow, how drunk were you?  I've drank a lot of beer at the grill but haven't melted my instant read yet

It wasn't alcohol, it was extreme fatigue on account of the horrific hours they've been working me.  In all seriousness, besides the melted thermometer, it's been taking a serious toll on my health.

I'm leaning towards getting a Thermapen Pro because the backlit screen would be a big help with all of the after dark cooking I do between the early sunsets during fall and winter and again because of my work hours.  "Midnight barbecue" with a couple of my friends is something of a tradition now.  Thanks for all the recommendations.  I'll be paying a visit to my usual BBQ shop later in the week after pay day.

I think @Lightning pic needs to go to Thermapen. Maybe they will use it as marketing material and send him a freebie

Seriously guy, don't let them work you to death. Your health is more important than their success. Been there, done that, won't be doing it again.
