Labor Day is just around the corner, but that's not stopping Best Buy. The big box retailer is having a Tech Fest sale until this Sunday, Aug. 25th. We're seeing tons of things on sale from laptops to headphones and even kitchen tools. One of the most underrated kitchen tools, a meat thermometer, is now pretty heavily discounted.
Until tonight, Best Buy has slashed the cost of this smart TempSpike wireless meat thermometer from ThermoPro to just $45. That's a $25 savings on its usual list price. This exclusive deal expires tonight, so be sure to make your purchase before then if you want to grab one at this super-low price.
This smart meat thermometer is wireless, using Bluetooth to send information and alerts right to your phone. It has a range of 500 feet thanks to the included signal booster, which makes it easy for you to continue working on other things while you cook. Essentially, you'll insert the probe -- which has two sensors that monitor both the internal and ambient temperature -- and then that data will be accessible on your phone via the app.
The app includes nine presets for meat types and doneness levels -- approved by the US Department of Agriculture, no less -- and it will provide you with an estimated cooking time and a data graph. You'll receive alert notifications so that you can cook your meat evenly every time. The signal booster has a battery life of up to three months per charge, while the probe will run up to 36 hours per charge. The probe is also made with IP67-rated stainless steel so it's dishwasher safe for easy cleanup.
