Amazon.com Review
A heavy-duty tool for the detailed chef, the RediFork Pro thermometer from Maverick gives you the exacting temperature information you need for perfect results on the grill or in the kitchen. Designed for beef, poultry, pork, and fish, the thermometer features a generous LCD monitor and reasonably simple touch-button operation. To use, you simply insert to stainless-steel temperature tips in the thickest part of the steak or filet. The display comes on automatically once food is hotter than 113 degrees F. A grid appears on the display, indicating temperature and doneness levels (rare, medium-rare, medium, and well done) for each of the four categories (beef, fish, poultry, and pork), so you can check your food accordingly. This is especially handy if you have both burgers and chicken on the grill at one time--the grid lets you check them both without changing any settings. Structurally sturdy, the thermometer has a comfortable textured grip and a hook for hanging storage. An optional integrated flashlight turns on with a simple side button for grilling at dusk or in the dark. The thermometer can read in either Fahrenheit or Celsius and runs on two AA batteries, included in the package. It measures 15-1/4 inches long and wipes clean after use. --Emily Bedard

Controlled Test Results: Warning - Unacceptable Product,
By TedO (Colorado USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Maverick RediFork Pro Rapid Read LCD Matrix Thermometer (Kitchen)
I BBQ several times a week and have learned the importance of reliable equipment, especially when friends are over. I bought the Maverick RediFork Pro because it has lots of cool features such as a backlit LCD display and "headlight" for nighttime grilling. Unfortunately, my results with the Maverick were disastrous. After a couple of embarrassing cook-outs and expensive "mis-steaks", I decided to perform some controlled tests on it and similar forks from CDN, BarbequePro, and TruCook. In addition to the forks, I also tested a simple single-probe digital thermometer, the Taylor #806 Weekend Warrior.Using hot water, a control thermometer, a stopwatch, and fresh batteries in each unit, I tested for speed and accuracy. My results: the Maverick RediFork Pro was the slowest, most inaccurate, most expensive, and most confusing to use of all units tested. The Maverick took an agonizingly-long 110-120 seconds before its display settled on a temperature. Worse yet, it read under the actual temperature by 25-35 degrees; the reason my steaks were overcooked. Just to make sure I did not have a defective unit, I bought another Maverick RediFork Pro but the test results were identical. For many reasons, an accurate digital thermometer reading (i.e. +/- 2 degrees) shouldn't take more than a few seconds. Therefore, the Maverick RediFork Pro is deemed completely unacceptable in my testing. The other forks were not much better and the dirt-simple Taylor 806 was the only product to take an accurate reading in under 10 seconds. Conclusion: Keep it simple with a digital probe; avoid gimmick-laden digital BBQ forks.

Best ThermoFork around - Just don't get it wet!!,

This review is from: Maverick RediFork Pro Rapid Read LCD Matrix Thermometer (Kitchen)
This is a great tool for the grill. It is the easiest one to use I have found. The readout is a grid which tells you how done any piece of meat is based on the temp - this allows you to check different things on the grill (i.e. chicken and beef) without having to reprogram the fork. Plus the readout is backlit and it has a light to help when grillin at night. The only negative is that it is not water resistant so you have to be careful washing it. I got water in mine when washing it one time, and now it is somewhat temperamental - sometimes when checking the temp on the grill, it goes blank, and I have to pull out my old one to get a reading. I still recommend this one - just be careful when cleaning it!!

RediFork,
By A Customer
This review is from: Maverick RediFork Pro Rapid Read LCD Matrix Thermometer (Kitchen)
Accurate and easy to use--just push the button amd insert. Better for grilling than oven work.A bit bigger than I would like but not too long-maybe a foot-and it does keep your hand safely away from splattering oil. Very accurate and sturdy.The on and off label has come unglued on mine so I need to reglue it.
