The turkey, the ham, the roast beef – all deliciously browned on the outside – may be half-thawed bacterial breeding grounds on the inside. There is only one way to know for sure that will not ruin your meal, and that’s an instant read thermometer.
The best of the lot, the Thermapen by ThermoWorks, is truly instant, measuring the temperature inside your roast in seconds rather than minutes. It’s also sadistically expensive for a tiny little kitchen gadget, which somehow makes the meat even tastier.
