The Joy of Cooking with Instant Read Digital Thermometers

My family, friends, and co-workers (even the unsuspecting cashiers at the local grocery store) know that I absolutely SWEAR by the instant read digial thermometer. I could spend hours extolling the virtues of the lowly meat thermometer to anyone willing to listen (or unfortunate enough not to have the choice BUT to listen!). In this day and age, I don't know how (or WHY, for that matter) anyone could even function without this inexpensive kitchen and barbeque tool!

Instant read digital thermometers take the guesswork out of cooking!! No longer will you overcook (remember Grandma's roast-leather beef?) or undercook your meat, always ensuring that a safe and proper internal temperature has been reached and that any potentially harmful bacteria such as E. Coli and Salmonella have been destroyed.

The best news is that this 'mini wonder' will not break the bank. A decent instant read digital pocket thermometer can be purchased for under $10.00, with a more deluxe model going for under $20.00.

Do yourself a favour, and make sure you equip your kitchen with a digital instant read thermometer today - your tastebuds (and your guests!!) will love you for it!!
