Essential Thermometers for Home Chefs

Serious Mealtimes / Vicky Wasik

After extensive testing our favorite instant-read thermometers are the ThermoWorks Thermapen ONE and the ThermoPop 2. Both are blazing fast and accurate.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: every kitchen needs an instant-read thermometer. I’ve said it so often to everyone who will listen that even my friends accuse me of being on the payroll of the thermometer lobby. And yes while we here at Serious Eats do recommend ThermoWorks instant-read thermometers like the Thermapen and ThermoPop 2 on a regular basis (and we earn a small affiliate fee on all purchases of said thermometers made through our site) all we really care about is that you have a reliable instant-read thermometer in your kitchen drawer (we’ll even recommend devices made by ThermoWorks’ competitors if that helps. It should!).
