ChefAlarm is a leave-in probe thermometer and timer that tracks your cook from start to finish. Set high and low temperature alarms, monitor min/max readings, and time your recipe — with all data visible on a single backlit display. Whether you’re roasting a turkey, proofing dough, or holding a braise at temperature, ChefAlarm shows you exactly where things stand.

Insert the Pro-Series® probe and take control of your cook with ChefAlarm’s full monitoring dashboard. Set your target temperature and high/low limits, track minimum and maximum temps, and run a countdown or count-up timer — all from one clear display. A 47-inch cable keeps the unit safely outside the oven, and the adjustable alarm (up to 92 dB) cuts through kitchen noise. Whether roasting, frying, baking, or cooking overnight, ChefAlarm keeps time and temperature working together.

  • Set Exact Temperature Limits: High and low alarms define your range for roasts, custards, candy, and delicate cooks.
  • Read Your Data at a Glance: A large, backlit display shows current temp, alarms, min/max, and timing simultaneously.
  • See Temperature Over Time: Continuous monitoring shows how heat rises and falls while you step away.
  • Manage Time Alongside Heat: Built-in countdown and count-up timers handle rests, bakes, and multitasking.
  • Cook with a Pro-Series® Probe: 700°F rating, precise response, and durability that outperforms standard kitchen thermometers.
  • Hear Alerts When It Matters: Adjustable alarms up to 92 dB cut through busy kitchens.
  • Handles Kitchen Mess: IP65 splash resistance stands up to spills and splashes.
  • Place It Where You Need It: Fold flat, stand upright, or mount magnetically on metal surfaces.
  • Keep Cooking Without Battery Swaps: Up to 5,000 hours of use on two AAA batteries.

Working on second one.

"The ChefAlarm is an accurate and versatile thermometer. After about three years of service my first ChefAlarm started to work intermittently. I noticed that when the display was bent up, leaving the base flat on the counter, the display would go blank. When the product was laid out without flexing, it worked without any problems. After doing more investigation, and repeated failures, I decided to take the unit apart. I discovered that the upper display portion and the lower battery and temperature measurement portion were connected using a ribbon cable. Unfortunately, due to repeated folding of the product that ribbon cable broke in the middle from bending. Considering that the product worked fine without folding, I wanted to know if I could simply replace the ribbon cable which is a simple fix. Repairs are not made for this product failure. So I had to throw the product away and buy another. If the weak point in the product design is only the ribbon cable, perhaps using a heavier gauge cable, or perhaps making it simple to replace when it does go bad is a possibility? In any event, I am happy with the product, and will purchase another as backup."

No light? Check your batteries

"I tried to use the light on my timer yesterday, but it didn't come on. It beeped when I pushed the button, but no light. I put in new Duracells, and the light came on! Very happy that I can continue to use it. It is 2 1/2 years old, and I think it still had the original batteries in it. Love how loud it is, and it is very easy to use as a timer, as long as you only need full minutes on the countdown."
