Maverick RediChek Remote Wireless Smoker Thermometer

The unit's functionality is great. Aside from the annoyance of where the on/off switch is on the transmitter, I would be singing praises. However after just one use, it is not measuring the temp properly so it will be returned.

I've only used it once on an overnight smoke of a couple pork butts. It worked as advertised, no surprises. My only complaint is the range. It wouldn't read more than ~25' through one wall into my family room where I was trying to get some sleep on the couch. Still, much better than the old system of setting an alarm for every 2 hours to mop and check the fire through the night.

The wiress remote failed to link when trying to use it the second time. I was able to use the remote sensor which connects to the smoker and meat fine.
I have to send it back to the company to get a replacement under their 90 day warranty.
I would use it again.

This is the third time I've purchased this product, because it is so useful if you smoke food regularly. I have wood, charcoal, gas and electric smokers and now that I have calibrated the electric smoker using this product, I don't need it as much, but when I use any of the others, I can regulate the temperature much better and know how cooked the food is without opening the lid. The latter is important if I'm on a tight schedule and want to add a glaze.

The problem is that I have had to purchase three of them because they stop working after a year or two.

The Redi-Check SMoker Thermometer is a must for every serious and backyard BBQ'er. It's simple to operate, very accurate and has improved my end results quite a bit. Temperature and timing a keys to good BBQ and this is the tool to do it.
