KitchenAid KQ902 Stainless Steel Meat Thermometer, Temperature Range 120F to 200F

The KitchenAid Leave-In meat thermometer is an essential tool for ensuring that meat is cooked to the correct temperature, providing reassurance about food safety. With a 3” dial featuring a tempered glass lens, this thermometer can be safely left in the oven or grill during cooking. The pointer on the dial will gradually move as the internal temperature of the meat rises, making it easy to monitor the cooking progress.

Constructed with durable stainless steel, this thermometer also includes cooking temperatures printed on the dial for quick reference. It is NSF listed to ensure quality and safety standards. It is important to note that the thermometer will be hot after use, so be sure to use potholders or oven mitts when handling it.

For optimal use, keep in mind that at room temperature, the pointer will rest at the bottom of the dial. If the meat is colder than room temperature, the pointer may spin counter-clockwise into the number scale – this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. Since this thermometer is designed to be left in the meat during cooking, the pointer may not move instantly and will require some time to register the temperature accurately.

One unique feature of this thermometer is its sloped dial design, providing a larger printing area for easy readability of the numbers. In terms of accuracy, the thermometer is precision calibrated to track doneness temperatures for consistent results. The construction of the thermometer, including a safety glass lens and food-grade stainless steel, ensures durability and strength.

With a temperature range of 120 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, this thermometer is suitable for a variety of cooking applications. It is important to allow the thermometer to cool completely before cleaning, as it should not be cleaned while hot. For best results, hand wash only, avoid immersing it in water or putting it in the dishwasher. Simply wipe it with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly to keep it in optimal condition.
