    I was driving myself NUTS trying to find a cheaper alternative, so I figured spend the money on Thermoworks SmokeX4 or spend the money on counseling.

    The reasons I went with this option is

    • Reputation
    • Quality Product
    • High and Low Alarms (when I hack my pellet grill to smoke since I don’t have a dedicated smoker and can’t do the scheduled temperature cycling

        Hey guys… I’m getting tired of buying wireless meat thermometers on Amazon only to find they have big temp fluctuations. Or the probes crap out after a few uses. What’s the best one to buy?

        BubbaSmoke1963 - I use a meater Plus most of the time on shorter cooks (4 hours or under) - It works great. On longer cooks I like to use my I-grill 3.

                Dr_Pain Darn you. I know I should’ve got the 4 instead if the 2. But, I think everyone is very happy with their very good but not cheap products.

                  I got the 4 over the 2 because with the discount of 10% for signing up as a new customer the difference was $26, about the cost of one probe

                              Yep. I have 2 thermapens, a time stick, a smoke, and a dot. Great products.

                                I have the Smoke 4x and this bad boy is plain awesome. I don’t know why it took me so long to make the purchase. My Thermapen is the best investment I’ve ever made. Not sure you need to spend the extra for the One. I think the MK4 on sale is a better value.

                                      Idaho Smokey Go for the 4 channel. I kicked myself because I only got the 2. Reason: You can reverse sear 4 steaks to 4 different temps when company comes over. Don’t kick yourself for not choosing it.
