Product Description The food safety branch of the USDA advises cooking ground meat patties to an internal temperature of 160oF to assure a safely cooked product. Tests have shown the color of the patty is no indication of doneness. A thermometer must be used to assure that the correct temperature has been reached. The DBBQ212 is one of the best thermometers to use because the temperature is measured at the bottom. Measurement Range: +32 to +212°F/0 to +100°C. One-button operation-big digit- easy to see day or night. The stainless fork tines and sure-grip handle let you lift up to 8 lbs. Aaccurate temperature readings for thin cuts of meat, fish or poultry.

Good Value For the Money
CDN BBQ Fork Thermometer Model DBBQ212The fork appears to be durable but I still prefer my tongs for steaks. It does a good job on temperature measurement. My big gripe is that it is slow and too short. Short could be overcome if it gave you an instant temperature reading. However when it is slow and short there is a tendency to lose all the hair on your knuckles. This is making the rash assumption that you have hair on your knuckles. I do and burnt hair is in no way aromatic.So for the price it is a good deal. I got it at Amazon for a whopping $12.49. It does the job for which I purchased it. Given a choice I would prefer a longer handle or a faster temperature reading but again for the price it is a good value for the money.I received no compensation for this post.

NOT backlit
Although the description on Amazon says that the display is backlit, it is not: I ordered this item only to discover that it is not indeed backlit (confirmed by the packaging, manual and on the manufacturer's website), but also that at 11" it's considerably shorter than most thermometer forks, which will likely lead to some very hot fingers over the grill.I'd suggest looking at the same company's model DTF212 CDN TempFork Thermometer (also available on Amazon), which is only a little more at $19, but is almost twice as long and does have a backlit display, along with a bunch of other features that may come in handy.

Great idea but not well built
These are a great idea, but not very well built. Almost immediately some water fogged up where it shows the temp and years later, it's still very hard to see the temp.

Great product!
I purchased these for my husband after his last pair broke. It works very well and is very well designed. One thing I want to point out on these is that the prongs are one solid piece. With hubbie's old pair, the tips of the prongs were a second piece and they eventually broke off.

Works fine, feels a little cheap
The temp comes up fine and seems to be accurate. It's a bit small and feels a bit cheap. It does the job though. I have seen nicer looking ones for less, but I have no Idea how well they work as far as getting temp.
