Square DOT
Measure both your food and the cooking environment with Average Mode OR set two high alarms to track two different foods while they cook. Just press the Up and Down buttons to set your High Alarms for each channel. Press ANY button to activate the backlight.

Pro-Series Probes
The High Temp Air Probe with the included Grate Clip allows you to measure both the current and the average cooking temperature in your oven or smoker with Square DOT. The Pro-Series cooking, penetration, and needle probes give you ultimate flexibility to measure the internal cooking temperature of any food.

SPOT spots
0.9-inch diameter metal mounting plates with adhesive backing. Pack of 5. Attach anywhere you want to be able to place your Square DOT with its two powerful magnets on the back.

Verified Accuracy
Each Square DOT comes with its own NIST-traceable calibration certificate verifying its accuracy to national standards.

Square DOT has 2 channels and an amazing new air temperature average function. Channel 1 functions as a regular alarm thermometer while Channel 2 can operate in two different modes. Average mode shows you a revolving average temperature calculation of the last 15 minutes, starting when the alarm is first reached. It’s perfect for determining your average oven or smoker temperature as you cook, so you can adjust in real time to get the most accurate results for any recipe. When average mode is disabled, Channel 2 will function as an alarm channel. Like DOT, Square DOT has big, easy-to-read digits, backlit display, ThermoWorks’ signature molded-in splash-proof seals and a commercial-grade plastic body making it a durable, user-friendly tool. It comes with a fold-out stand and a magnetic back for surface mounting. The Kit includes a Pro-Series penetration probe, and a Pro-Series air probe, a Pro-Series cooking probe, and a Pro-Series needle probe for ultimate flexibility with your cook—each with cables that withstand 700°F (371°C). Kit also includes adhesive metal disks for mounting and two Grate Clips for placing the air probe near the cooking surface of any oven or smoker.

  • Dial In Your Oven Temperature: Most ovens and smokers cycle 20–30°F above and below the set temp. Average Mode shows a rolling 15-minute average so you can adjust for normal heat swings instead of reacting to every spike.
  • Monitor Two Temperatures at Once: Track food and oven temps simultaneously — or keep tabs on two dishes — for better timing and consistency.
  • Set Precise Temperature Limits: Independent high alarms help you catch doneness, stalls, or overheating before they affect results.
  • Read Everything at a Glance: Large, easy-to-read digits show current temperatures, alarm points, and averages on a backlit screen.
  • Built for High-Heat Cooking: Includes Pro-Series® probes rated to 700°F for ovens, grills, smokers, and fryers.
  • Hear It from Across the Kitchen: A 70 dB alarm cuts through everyday noise so you don’t miss key moments.
  • Ready for Kitchen Chaos: IP66 splash-resistant housing protects against spills, splashes, and steam.
  • Stays Visible Where You Need It: Magnetic back and fold-out stand keep Square DOT secure and easy to see.
  • Runs for the Long Haul: Up to 5,000 hours of battery life on two AAA batteries.
  • Verified Precision: Each unit is accurate within ±1.8°F and ships with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate.

Kit includes:2-channel Square DOT, 4.5-inch Pro-Series High Temp Straight Penetration Probe, Pro-Series High Temp Air Probe, 6-inch Pro-Series High Temp Cooking Probe, 2.5-inch Pro-Series High Temp Needle Probe, adhesive SPOT Spots for attaching Square DOT to a surface magnetically, and 2 Grate Clips.

Probe Mix-Up

"I ordered a 2nd probe for meet do my husband could keep up with my meet and his. I eat smaller and often thinner cuts. We used the wrong probes and the meet got way over cooked before reaching medium rare temperatures. $48 worth of steak was ruined. We will read more on this or call customer service to see how to do better."

Love it!

"I got the 4 port system and love having all four temperatures in the same unit. I purchased one more temp probe and a case for it. Used it for the first time at my last BBQ competition. The second unit that reads remotely was super nice to have in my trailer. Great product and great customer service."

High temp needle probe.

"This works very well for me, and it is quickly becoming my "go-to" probe for most of my cooks. I do disagree with the statement the temp. probe can not be used for the pull-temp for my cooks. I have two Mark 4 probes and they have done an excellent job for me, but I have used a carefully placed temperature probe to be my "final cook"."

"Works great - happy to do business with you!!!"

Van W. (5/5)

Good probe, not durable.

"They just don't last. The first one I had lasted about two or three years with moderate use. When I bought replacements, I ordered the silicon sleeve to help protect them, but they still lasted less than a year."

"Very nice! The unit and included probes are accurate! It’s so nice to know the actual temp in the oven/grill and of the food being cooked."

Kenneth R. (5/5)

"This is the thermapen for the oven. Reliable air and cook temps, without having to open the door to check. If you care about precision, this is a good supplement for baking, roasting, reverse sear, anything oven."

Elijah (5/5)

No Instructions on proper usage

"I did not get any directions with my Square Dot unit. Once I removed the plastic strip that was protecting the batteries it turned on and started blinking that the probe(s) was not attached. It has been blinking for 2 days and I have not found a way to turn it off. It would also be nice to find out the proper way to use the attachment for the grill or pot that came with it. The unit was recommended, but the information provided with it definitely needs help."

Best Investment

"Love it. Best Investment for the oven or BBQ. I did a brisket this past weekend and with the Square I was able to watch and hear the right temperature being reached. I should have bought a thermometer like this years ago."

Matthew S. (5/5)

I bought it to track

"I bought it to track the temperature inside my oven and so far I am liking it as long as it is truly accurate. Not sure how I would know if it is. It is saying my brand new Viking is 25 degrees off."
