Re: New Thermapen Mk4
Very nice that the display rotates. I found myself the other day trying to read mine upside down and then awkwardly switching hands while holding something to get it to orient the right way.

Re: New Thermapen Mk4
Interesting! Still not convinced it is worth over 3X as much as their Thermopop model though.

Re: New Thermapen Mk4
I recently bought the Thermopop. I really wanted the Thermapen MK4 but in the end just bring myself to spend that much more. Maybe someday.
I am liking the Thermopop. My first experience with them and it has been really helpful in cooking meats to the proper doneness on the grill. I have taken things off much earlier or later than I would have prior to using the thermometer. Can't wait to use it for steaks.
One thing I am not crazy about with the Thermopop is the small size. It can be very difficult to use over a hot grill. I wonder if the Thermapen is longer?

I use tongs to remove food that is on the center of grill before using my Thermopop to avoid getting my hands burned.Great thermometer for the price.

New Thermapen Mk4
I don't use any glove when checking temps with my Thermopen MK4. It seems to have a long enough reach to keep me safe.

Re: New Thermapen Mk4
This looks nice!
I may get one if my $10 digital one from academy ever craps out.... Not sure if it's gonna happen LOL. Tough little thermometer.

Re: New Thermapen Mk4
Haha....thanks Ware!
Yea the Thermopop is 6" or 7" long at most. The extra length of the Thermapen would be nice. I can always upgrade
