Read MoreTurkey Keys to Success Video (Part 1)
Watch ThermoWorks Founder Randy Owen explain one of the most neglected keys to success on Thanksgiving: Verifying the uniform temperature of your Turkey meat before you put it in the oven or on the grill.

Read MoreTurkey Temp Tips: The Quest for the Perfect Turkey
No other holiday has such a laser focus on a single piece of food–the Thanksgiving Turkey. Say what you will about the sweet potatoes, green beans, mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, the pies, even the rolls (oh, those rolls); all eyes are on the turkey on Thanksgiving afternoon. They don’t call it Turkey Day for nothing. If the turkey isn’t right, the day gets an asterisk. If the...

A probing comment on the YouTube comments page of our recent “Making a Proper Ice Bath” video deserves further explanation. @prototype3a posted: While this video is educational, it is misleading since a single point calibration at 0°C does not help if you are using your thermometer to measure any temperature other than 0°C. A minimum of three calibration points are necessary to...

On the official website of the SANAP Antarctic Research Expedition it explains that due to the logistical challenges of operating in a sub-zero environment for extended periods of time, “only the strongest engines will do.” That’s why we were so happy to hear from Tyrell Sassen, a member of the 10-man “over-winter” team currently at SANAP—they arrived last January...
Read MoreMeat Should Rest
Cooked meat should be allowed to “rest” after cooking and before cutting. This permits the juices to be reabsorbed into the fibers of the meat. If you skip resting, you will lose more flavorful juices when the meat is cut. The temperature of the meat will always continue to rise a little during the resting period, so you should remove your meat from the oven or grill prior to reaching your...
