ThermoWorks DOT ThermometersThermoWorks DOT from ThermoWorks makers of the nearly universally lauded Thermapen

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

  • Probe-Style Alarm Thermometer
  • Probe cable (47″ long) survives 700°F
  • Big digits are seen from a distance
  • Now includes a backlight
  • Designed in Utah by ThermoWorks

DOT is engineered to do one thing really well. Set your target temperature with the up or down buttons, insert the probe in your food, and DOT beeps when it gets there. Simple as that. Hit any button and the beeping stops. The display still flashes till your temperature drops below the setpoint. DOT uses any of the Pro-Series probes designed for our popular ChefAlarm. The included 4.5-inch probe reads temperatures up to 572°F with a cable that withstands 700°F. Designed for commercial food service, DOT beats houseware brands for intuitive usability and survivability.

DOT is designed to track temperatures over an extended period of time with moderate-heat cooking methods such as smoking, oven-roasting, deep-frying, homebrewing, and Sous Vide and to be used while grilling. DOT is not meant to be used in place of a digital instant-read thermometer, such as a Thermapen MK4 or a ThermoPop, or used with broiling.

Only two buttons to learn – Up and Down! No complicated programming, no flashing piggies, chickens or cows. Made for people who know what they’re doing in the kitchen and who don’t want to get bogged down in gadgetry or hemmed-in by someone else’s “pre-programmed doneness”. Set your own temperatures, faster than anything out there. When the alarm sounds, if you want you can add a few degrees just by tapping the Up button.

Use DOT for Sous Vide, roasting, baking, smoking, breads, pastries, candy making, home brewing and lots more. The included 4″ probe can be used for hundreds of things but versatility is expanded by four optional Pro-Series probes. If you’re international or uber-scientific, change from Fahrenheit to Celsius using the On/Off button on the rear.

DOT is a professional tool designed for commercial use. Molded-in, splash-proof seals and commercial grade plastic body survive messy kitchen hands. Includes a tilt-out stand for counter use and strong magnets for metal surfaces. Pro-Series probes last much longer than houseware probes.


 

For a short time ThermoWorks is marking down the DOT by a whopping 35% to $29.25. No coupon code required, check product page to see if you can still get this deal.

Franklin Steak: Dry-Aged. Live-Fired. Pure Beef. [A Cookbook] Kindle Edition

Franklin Steak: Dry-Aged. Live-Fired. Pure Beef. [A Cookbook] by Aaron Franklin


From the book  description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

The be-all, end-all guide to cooking the perfect steak—from buying top-notch beef, seasoning to perfection, and finding or building the ideal cooking vessel—from the James Beard Award–winning team behind the New York Times bestseller Franklin Barbecue.

“This book will have you salivating by the end of the introduction.”—Nick Offerman

Aaron Franklin may be the reigning king of brisket, but in his off-time, what he really loves to cook and eat at home is steak. And it’s no surprise that his steak is perfect, every time—he is a fire whisperer, after all, and as good at grilling beef as he is at smoking it.

In Franklin Steak, Aaron and coauthor Jordan Mackay go deeper into the art and science of cooking steak than anyone has gone before. Want the real story behind grass-fed cattle? Or to talk confidently with your butcher about cuts and marbling? Interested in setting up your own dry-aging fridge at home? Want to know which grill Aaron swears by? Looking for some tricks on building an amazing all-wood fire? Curious about which steak cuts work well in a pan indoors? Franklin Steak has you covered.

For any meat lover, backyard grill master, or fan of Franklin’s fun yet authoritative approach, this book is a must-have.


Kindle Edition books can be viewed on your Kindle Device or on free reader applications available for your iPhone, Android or Windows smart phone – and  for your web browser.
