DOT is a single-channel alarm thermometer built for cooks who want reliable results without complexity. Set your target temperature, insert the probe, and DOT alerts you when your food is perfectly done. No presets, no complicated menus, no extra steps. The large display shows current and goal temperatures simultaneously so you can track progress at a glance.

Designed to work with ThermoWorks commercial-grade Pro-Series® probes, DOT reads temperatures up to 572°F and delivers the accuracy trusted in restaurants. It’s ideal for roasting, smoking, baking, frying, candy making, and sous vide — or any cook where tracking temperature over time matters more than split-second readings. Splash-resistant, magnetic, and built for years of use, DOT delivers focused temperature monitoring in its simplest form.

  • Set Your Target and Walk Away: Choose your desired temperature with simple up/down buttons and let DOT monitor the cook for you.
  • Track Temperature Continuously: The probe keeps tabs on your food’s internal temperature so you can pull it the moment it’s ready.
  • See What Matters Instantly: A large display simultaneously shows both current temperature and alarm temperature within ±1.8°F accuracy.
  • Hear the Moment It’s Ready: A 70dB alarm alerts you when food reaches your set temperature — no guessing required.
  • Handles Serious Heat: The included Pro-Series® probe withstands temperatures up to 700°F for ovens, grills, and smokers.
  • Built for Real Kitchens: An IP65 splash-resistant housing protects against spills and splashes.
  • Stays Visible and Secure: Mount DOT on metal surfaces with strong magnets or sit it upright on the counter using the kickstand.
  • Powered for Daily Use: Up to 5,000 hours of battery life on two AAA batteries means DOT is always ready.

Reviews

Simple - perfect

"This instrument is like a Thermapen with an extended probe. It fits my requirements perfectly: accurate, just the basics, nothing fancy, affordable. Upon reflection, may be I should have spent a bit more and gotten the Bluetooth version, but that would've added just convenience to an already great tool. Highly recommended!"

— Brian S. (5/5)

Amazing thermometer

"Just as simple to use and accurate as the other thermometers I have from ThermoWorks but with the long probe it great for simple quick things like a quick tri tip of the bbq"

— Robert A. (5/5)

I had no idea

"Long, slow cooking never was less stressful. Knowing the internal temp without opening the door makes a huge difference. Pastrami came out perfect twice in two tries!"

— John F. (5/5)

Great! But on the Dot,

"Great! But on the Dot, needed to go online to find out how to change to Celsius. So, needs more written instructions to come with it."

— Charlie H. (5/5)

When is my bread done? Just use a dot!

"This is my second. I use them all the time when I bake bread to know when the loaf is done. They are great."

— Sharon J. (5/5)

Color

"Color may not matter to some, but when you order it for a specific color it does. The hot pink is very misleading. Definitely isnât the vibrant pink that is in the picture. I was so disappointed when my dot came yesterday and more of a well not hot pink!! First picture is what I got. Second picture is what I expected. 😔"

Q&A

how long is the cable? I don't want the plastic housing to melt when I BBQ.
The cables of the Pro-Series probes are 47 inches long (almost 4 feet). The housing can handle up to 122°F. Most importantly, don't stick it to the outside of the grill/BBQ and you should be safe from the housing melting.
Does it come with a probe and if so, how long is the lead?
Yes, DOT® comes with a Pro-Series® penetration probe included, and the cable is about 47 inches long.
