Turn up the heat with Infrared Laser Thermometers
I’m trying to tell if my meat thermometer works correctly. I know you’re not supposed to put them in water, but how do I test it to make sure it’s registering at the proper temperature?
*the thermometer does say not to put it in water.
We purchased a meat thermometer and today I wanted to try oil frying some chicken wings. I’ve never cooked in oil after I burned myself one time, and completely destroyed the food. So does anyone know what kind of thermometer I need to measure oil?
I heard somewhere that by poking through your roast with a thermometer, you’re allowing moisture in the steak to be released.
I tried doing a roast without the thermo, and it actually came out to be more tender than my previous roasts, even though it was cooked to medium well done. I don’t know if this is just the cut of the meat or what.
I’m planning to cook a pork tenderloin for dinner tomorrow. I’ll be using a meat thermometer (non digital) to confirm that the tenderloin is fully cooked. I’ve never used one before and I have a some questions.
What internal temperature should pork tenderloin be cooked to? Do I insert the thermometer at the beginning or end of cooking? Where in the meat should the thermometer be inserted?
Thanks for your help:)
I have started baking my own bread and they suggest using a liquid thermometer to measure the temperature of the water you mix with the yeast. All I could find was a thermometer that seems designed for measuring meat. Is it okay to use that?
For a few days, I’ve been looking for a candy or sugar thermometer because my chemistry class is making peanut brittle (YUM,YUM!!!). However, no matter how many stores I’ve been to, I cannot find one. Just recently, I’ve noticed that my teacher’s candy thermometer looks somewhat like a meat thermometer, but it clearly says candy thermometer in the front. Can I use a meat thermometer in place of the candy thermometer? If not, are there any other replacements for a candy or sugar thermometer that are in everyday household convenient reach?
These are the following stores that I’ve been to:
Albetson’s
Target
Stater Bros
Henry’s
and a few no-name specialty stores
I have a Harry and David’s near my house. Would they possibly have one????
Im making a prime rib roast can i keep a metal thermometer in it while its in the oven roasting?
