The IRL220 large dial Insta-Read cooking thermometer is perfect for professional results with meats, poultry, yeasts, dough and chocolate tempering. Use this thermometer for foods cooked in conventional or microwave ovens, smoke ovens, rotisserie or on the grill. This Insta-Read thermometer is a precision instrument, yet is rugged and durable. Use it for quick, accurate readings during stovetop cooking — or after food has been removed from conventional or microwave ovens. The slender stainless steel stem penetrates meat easily, and minimizes the loss of juices. The protective sheath for the thermometer, which features a pocket clip and loop to conveniently hold the probe, lists various types of meats along with the USDA recommended temperature for each. This thermometer is waterproof and shatterproof, as well as recalibratable. Featuring advanced technology, quality construction, easy-to-read displays and user-friendly operations, CDN thermometers are essential tools in any kitchen.
