With all the tailgate-centric gadgets available, it has become pretty easy for any schmoe to whip up a decent tailgating meal. But if you want to step up to the level of a true grillmaster, you need to be able to cook your beef, poultry and seafood at just the right temperature. Because nothing ruins a cook’s reputation quite like undercooked meat.
But by parting with a 20-dollar bill ($19.95 to be exact), you can purchase a device that allows you to cook the perfect temperature every time. Not only does Cuisinart’s Programmable Outdoor Digital Thermometer Fork have an impressively long name, but it lives up to exactly what its slogan says it will do, “Grill It To Perfection.”
Many digital food thermometers show an accurate temperature, but Cuisinart’s device lets you program your desired cooking specifications — rare, medium, medium well or well done. And it also has a built-in timer that counts down from 99 minutes for presetting the temperature you want to achieve. Now the grillmaster can hang out with friends instead of hanging over the grill with a stopwatch.
The loud and flashing alarm lets you know when your food is ready to be turned, basted or served. The fork part of the device is removable and dishwasher safe. And the whole thing measures 4.5” x 2” x 20.9” and weighs less than one pound. Not too shabby.
