So ever since the very first Meater product was released I never had any good experiences with it. The original Meater was notorious for dropping Bluetooth signal and after numerous attempts I just lost all hope for that product.
One of my subscribers were telling me about the Meater and I found myself giving it a bad review. After a few messages I thought it would just be better if I were to buy the new Meater + and see if there has been any improvements.
This video is my first run at using the Meater +.

I too was at first disappointed with dropping the signal. I went back to KZbin and checked with the factory and they used an iPad and a phone blue toothed to the Meater+. I tried the same and it worked. My cousin and I were using a Kamado Joe on a brisket. Kamados have very thick ceramic walls that might block the signal, but with the new set up I actually went 3 miles away to my cousins house while the brisket was cooking and I could monitor the ambient temperature of the cook and the internal temperature of the brisket on my cell phone.. Once I followed what the factory said to do it worked like a charm. Today I ordered two each Meater+ as Christmas gifts for family as I strongly believe in this product. I have cooked many times since with this product and it has never once failed to help guide my cook to perfection. For some reason, now I only use my cell phone to monitor the cooking process without having to use the iPad. You failed to talk about the program that Meater+ uses and they ask you to download. I also find that program to be top notch. Thank you for your entertaining video.

My Meater + keeps disconnecting. "Move the Meater Plus charger closer to the probe" I have the charger 6' away from the probe. In addition, it should have a flip timer in the software. I flip steaks, on the grill, every 2 minutes. This means I have to run Meater software AND my timer simultaneously. So, Meater keeps disconnecting, alarms keep going off for flipping, I'm flipping the steak, switching softwares, waiting for reconnection etc etc It's a complete pain in the a** adding this expensive device to what was an otherwise pleasurable experience. My Thermapen is just fine, thank you very much. Now, on longer cooks I can see the benefit. The Meater software does eventually reconnect. Then my only issue is hearing it disconnect every couple of minutes. It's annoying, but it works.

I bought the block with 4 probes, off your review, I'm not having good luck with, it disconnects all the time, probe to block, I also had two probes side by side, the temp were 8 degrees difference , Not sure if i'm doing something wrong, if you have set temp , it flags you 5 degrees before and locks up, I just got this in late 2023

It works good when it wants.. I have problems where I'm cooking a brisket, and it gets up to temp and time to wrap. I end up removing the probe just to wrap it, and then when I stick the probe back in the general area where it was before removing, it's now reading different temps. It's very aggravating cause now I risk screwing up a huge chunk of meat. I do have other probes I stick in that connects to my grill but it's just garbage. Even my hand held thermopro I question sometimes on how accurate it is.

I am interested in getting a Meater thermometer probe. The person stated that the meat probe and the charging block work together from another review. The power block needs to be near the meat probe being used in the grill. The power block sends the signal to your device of choice. If it is connected to an iPad or a tablet on a wifi network, you can access the probe from anywhere using your phone with the Meater app if you have to leave while the meat is cooking.

Meater should post may not work on heavy duty smokers before it is ordered.

Come on homie, don’t pick apart my video like that. I showed the Meater+ in the bird and let it do its thing. I didn’t need to prove the validity of the connection. I’m not taking Meater to court where I hafta prove every step. Me telling you how it preformed is the experience. That’s why my title says “find out what I think”. If the Meater didn’t connect I would tell my viewers that. But for this cook it actually worked great. I wish I could say it does that all the time, but it doesn’t! Now I’ll kindly appreciate you removing the 👎 and hit that 👍! 😎

I got this product as a present for Xmas from my wife. We were both excited as we had watched a cooking show that uses this. While it is ok for smoking meat or cooking indoors it is totally useless for grilling. Most people know that wood, charcoal, and even gas grills cook at well over the 575 degree limit of the product. My gas grill cooks at 700 degrees. My wife pointed out that she often cooks roasts in the oven that start at 575 degrees and later get reduced. This product probably works well for anyone cooking below 500 degrees but for over that it will likely not work (gets high heat alert) or break the probe.

Do not trust this product. It’s over cooks 100% of the time by a significant amount. The customer service is terrible these are their actual words; “With regards to the rest period, it is actually quite normal for the internal temperature to exceed the target. “ “Although the temperature may exceed, we do see the temperatures drop back down and the results are typically what we are looking for!” So by their own words the cook doesn’t match the target temp. It over cooks then you let it get cold so it matches. To give you an idea of how out. On a target temp of 63c / 145f for a pork loin. The meater will over cook it to 70c/158f

I found that my Meater + is temperamental. Sometimes it works great and sometimes it doesn’t. It lives on my fridge now. I don’t find it reliable. There’s nothing like my ThermoWorks MK4 and BlueDot! Always accurate and always reliable!

@@madswinebbq meater refunded my purchase. Can’t believe they actually said to me that because the app doesn’t know the size and weight of the meat it’s estimator can’t work! It’s basically a wireless thermometer. Just ordered the thermapen and blue dot about an hour ago! Thank you.

You have awful WiFi if you couldn’t get 20ft with the original. I get 35ft easy and it’s super accurate. Anytime I lose signal for roaming too far it’s fine, once I enter range again it picks up live data in real time. Not sure why the comments are being so dramatic about the range. You could’ve gotten a lemon I guess, but your experience definitely falls outside of the norm. - Jake

I had trouble like you did at first on my Komado Joe Jr. and then went back to the factory instructions for setting it up {on KZbin} and now I love this product. I was cooking a brisket at home and went to my cousin's house 3 miles away and was still monitoring the ambient and internal temperatures on my cell phone at his house. It has never failed me since on many other cooks.

I can tell you that I have been using meater for a couple of years. Nothing but disconnecting problems and with brand new batteries still is never charged. I have been through the tech people at the company but they can't ever fix any problems. Last contact said to send it to them on my coin and they will look at it. I know that I will never buy a meter product again and I did try it today after charging it with a new battery for 2 days. Doesn't work. Just saying. I smoke a lot of meat, my hobby, my weakness. But will look at other companies that offer a unit that plugs in to charge. Replaceable batteries are prehistoric in this day and age. Is there a reason they couldn't just send me a new unit to see if the one I have was a faulty one. No need to give them more money for nothing. Just purchase something else. They don't seem to care. I am not bitter, just want what they promise. I don't expect this post to stay on without being deleted also. We all need the truth.
