Both are good. Use them to get you close. Just set them 10 degrees under your target and babysit the last bit of cooking with an instant read. This will help keep you from overshooting your target temp.

Agreed, this is the correct answer. I have the ThermoPro wireless thermometer (with wired probes) and once I see that I'm getting close I finish it up with my instant read. I'm in the market for a complete wireless thermometer but didn't know the MeatStick exists...back to more research!

Many presenters have tested these two devices and each has its list of pros and cons. One user may feature one over the other but there does not seem to be a “clear cut winner by a landslide”. That being said it could be a flip of a coin or which device you may catch on a sale or special price that might tip the scales in favor for one over the other. If one likes fancy apps that might be a selling point or maybe the range differences might also become a deciding factor. One more question remains: in the long run how do each of the tested devices hold up after 6 months, 12 months, 18 months etc! User confidence in a product is extremely important as well. How many of each are stable and working fine with absolutely no issues after a term of usage. Also very important!Good presentation. Now I’m off to look for another comparison video 😂

Problem with these kind of "comparisons" is that meat is not a stable constant medium. A real comparison would be Boiling water or even Ice Water as that is a constant temp.

I will agree 100% on the assessment of the meater plus on this. I have it. I like it. But the range needs to be better.

Can you do a boiling water and ice bath comparison please. Your current video has way too many variables to make a purchasing decision. A few degrees either way could the factor of a great cook or bomb. Boiling water and ice would take out 99% variables. If you want bring in distance into equation, please tell us 100 feet or 135 feet. I don’t know how big is your yard from front to back. Thank you.

Love this comparison. I wasn't impressed with the Meater and so I think I'm going to go ahead and buy the meatstick now. I do like the range because I always tend to forget something and have to run to the store.

That’s funny you say that. I think it comes down to each individual person’s experience. Saw another KZbinr do a comparison and they said the Meater+ was better. I guess you can’t go wrong with either one.

Thanks for the (non-scientific) comparison. Probe insertion has to be exact to compare apples to apples. I have all the Meater products since the very beginning, and I'm completely pleased with my cooking results. - Cheers!

My meat stick is trash, it constantly lose connection. I think I'm done with it.
@BakersBBQ2 жыл бұрын
Good video comparison 👍🏻! I had to return my Meater+ because I couldn’t get more than a foot or two away without loosing connection. Glad to see that’s not the case with yours. Happy Smoking Brother!

Mine can be glitchy as well. The MeatStick seemed to hold a good connection. Thank you for watching!

Nice review, thanks for doing it. But it can sometimes be hard to follow when you say "this one" rather than the product name, for future reviews.

I have never used either one. What concerns me about the Meat Stick is that it appears you have to pernitrate further than the Meater. That might not be practical in some situations like chicken. ??? The "friendliness" of the app would be my deciding factor. Those things are not cheap. So, getting the one you will end up liking is important. Thanks for the review.

Meatstick X was by far the worst purchase I have made… replaced after 6 months due to loss of connection, a month later same story. Straight in the bin. Worst $169 I have spent.
