 Highly Recommend The AW131 BBQ/Oven Thermometer August 31, 2008
BBQ Cook (South Carolina)
This is a great choice if you want a serious cooking thermometer. As soon as I received it I tested it against a digital instant-read thermometer in a glass filled with ice cubes and water and then in a pan of boiling water. In both tests it was right on the mark with the instant-read thermometer.
Later in an actual cooking test with a pork roast in the oven it came out with exactly the same reading as the instant-read. Finally, cooking some pork shoulders in an outdoor barbecue pit, it once again was right on the mark with the instant-read.
For me, two additional features that are important are, 1) it warns you when the meat temperature is 5 degrees away from the target temp allowing you to remove the meat at that time and allow the carry over cooking to reach the final temp thereby keeping the meat from over cooking; and 2) you can manually set a target temperature of your own choosing, such as 190F, if you want really tender pork shoulders/butts for pulled pork.
I highly recommend the Oregon Scientific AW131 BBQ/Oven Thermometer. It is accurate and has operated flawlessly for me. Be sure to read the instructions and don't forget those parts of the instructions about resetting both units.

The product works fine when you figure out how operate it. After a lot of frustration trying to activate the thing it occured to me to push the reset button on the receiver and the sender at the same time. Worked like a charm.

Works as advertised. I found I had to press and hold the on/off buttons for a couple of seconds to get things started. Instruction weren't clear about that. Other than that, I really like its performance. Range was excellent. I have aluminum siding on my house and a lot of times remote devices can't penetrate but there was no problem with the 131.

Somewhat confusing to begin with, but accurate once you figure out how to operate it.
Works anywhere around the house and yard June 12, 2008

Had it for a year now, and use it on the BBQ rotisserie for chicken. Don't ask how. Is accurate to 1 or 2 degrees. Have probably cooked 30 chickens with it. Is the only one I found will operate anywhere around inside and outside the house. I think you could actually get over 300 feet with this one. The other brand couldn't make it 10 feet through a stucco wall. Be sure to turn on the transmitter first, then the receiver. The manual could be better. I forgot to turn down the left burner and fried the wire to the probe, my fault. Don't expect the wire to survive over a large flame. I got it hot enough to melt the metal jacket. Time for a probe replacement.
