Great  review!!

Was looking to order a Maverick or the TW  ThermaQ  and got the email regarding the Smoke and ordered it  right on the spot.

Looks like its already been delayed  however.  Originally they stated it would ship  10/20 and now its back to the 28th... :(

I received my order last week.  They must have a supply problem.

I got mine over the weekend, can't wait to try it out!!  I

Pretty solid feeling,  gots some heft to it!!   


I also got an extra probe. 

Lots of parts  would be nice if they made a case available  like the  Chef Alarm to hold it all together.

100% Agree.  I'll mention that to them.

I really like the ChefAlarm case.  It'll hold the ChefAlarm, two probes, and a DOT (another Thermoworks thermometer) if you're careful with it.  That was my go to thermo combo before the Smoke came out.  I actually still use that combo, especially when I want to temp two different grills.

Thermoworks is currently offering Pro-Series probes for 20% off.  Makes the Smoke thermometer with needle probe deal look a few dollars better.

I have one of the new Smoke thermometers but have not used it yet.  I did take advantage of the 20% sale and bought the two probes that come with the Smoke so that I would have an extra set in case one of my original ones quit working. 

I can't wait to try the smoke out.  I've been using a Maverick 732 which is a good thermometer but the Smoke is so much easier to set up.

Yeah Smoke is a significant upgrade.  While they are still on sale I recommend you grab a needle probe.  They read faster than the penetration probes and are so tiny it's very easy to check several spots in a hunk of meat without fearing you're turning it into Swiss cheese!

Thanks for the great video. I've owned a ThermoWorks ChefAlarm for over a year and recently purchased the ThermoPop. I love both products.

I was eyeballing the Smoke for while. I emailed my wife the link in the  review post. She asked if I wanted the Smoke or Samsung G2 smartwatch...without hesitation I said Smoke. Can't wait for Xmas to get here!

Thanks @GunSlinger!  Much appreciated.  You're going to love the Smoke thermometer.  Ask her to grab you a needle probe while she's at it and to buy this weekend using promo code SAVEMORE16 to get at least 10% off.

This may seem like a dumb question but..., I'm assuming if you don't care about the pit temp you could get another food probe and use that where the pit probe went? So you could monitor 2 pieces of meat instead.

Yes.  I have a setup where I use a ChefAlarm with the air temp probe for pit temps and my Smoke with two needle probes for meat temps.  Works really well.

Great video. I would buy anything from Thermoworks. Great company and products

Great review!

When I end up buying one I will try and remember to use your link.

Agree ! ! !

But, I already have 3 Mavericks (2x732, 1x733).  But this will be the next one I buy.
