Govee Bluetooth Meat Thermometer, Wireless Meat Thermometer for Smoker Oven, Digital Grill Thermometer with 2 Probes, Timer Mode, Smart LCD Backlight BBQ Thermometer for Cooking Turkey Fish Beef

I’ve been using the Govee Bluetooth Meat Thermometer primarily with my smoker, and it has performed very well. It provides a consistent and reliable temperature reading, which is critical when cooking low and slow. To test accuracy, I compared the readings against another trusted thermometer when pulling meat off the smoker. The temperatures matched closely, which gave me confidence that the probe is measuring accurately. I’ve also used it in the oven with equally solid results. The Bluetooth connectivity allows me to monitor temperatures without constantly lifting the lid or opening the oven door, which helps maintain consistent cooking conditions. The app interface is straightforward and easy to read, and setup was simple. Pros: Accurate readings Reliable Bluetooth monitoring Easy setup Works well for smoker and oven use Cons: Bluetooth range can vary depending on walls or distance Overall, this is a dependable thermometer that gives peace of mind when cooking larger cuts of meat. If you regularly smoke or oven-roast meats and want consistent internal temperature monitoring, this is a great tool to have.

Good attachment, it fit my current thermometer. Works great.

I use this all the time when I smoke meats. It gets the job done and does it well. I like that you can track the temperature over time. However I wish there was a way to turn off the sound on the actual unit but not the app. I like to smoke overnight so it’s disruptive for the unit to beep but I need to have it on so I can monitor when the temps get too low or high.

Worked great for the price. So much cheaper than wireless probes. It seemed to be accurate in that it matched the exact temperature of my instant-read thermometer. Only thing that was kind of weird/unexpected is that it requires the app to use. It does not function as a standalone device. I had originally thought that the app would just be a feature for monitoring remotely, but I probably didn't read through the description thoroughly.

Love this thermometer. It's eay to use and is very accurate. Built well

5/5 stars for the Govee Bluetooth Meat Thermometer. This thermometer honestly exceeded my expectations for the price and has become one of my favorite accessories for smoking and grilling. Mine came with two probes and batteries included which was a nice bonus since it was basically ready to use right out of the box. One of the biggest pros is the design of the main unit itself. It has a built-in speaker, hanging hook, and kickstand which makes it easy to place wherever you need it while cooking. The display is also very easy to read at a glance and clearly shows both the current temperature and the target temperature you have set, which makes monitoring cooks much simpler. You can set target temperatures and the unit will alert you once the meat reaches the desired temp which is really convenient during longer cooks. The probes also seem accurate from my experience and the stainless steel braided cables feel durable enough to handle smokers, grills, ovens, air fryers, and pretty much anything else without worrying about damaging the wires from heat. The cables are also a decent length at around 16 inches long, which gives you plenty of flexibility when positioning the probes in larger smokers or grills. Overall it feels very versatile and useful for many different cooking applications beyond just smoking meat. What really sold me on this thermometer though was the Bluetooth app. A lot of other smart thermometers with apps and extra features cost an arm and a leg, but I picked this one up on sale for around $18 if I remember correctly. For that price it honestly feels like a steal. The app itself is simple and easy to use and it even comes with preset temperatures for different meats which is helpful if you are newer to cooking or smoking. The only real con I have noticed is that sometimes the app takes a little bit to refresh and update the meat temperatures again. It is not instant all the time, but honestly for the price I can live with that. Being able to sit inside the house and still monitor my smoker temperatures from my phone is incredibly convenient and makes longer cooks much easier to manage. Overall I think this thermometer is absolutely worth the money. Even at full price I would still buy it again. For anyone looking for a reliable Bluetooth meat thermometer without spending a fortune, I would definitely recommend the Govee.

Update: Govee reached out to me about the problems I was having with this. They had me run some tests and after some back and forth they sent me a new unit. The new unit and probes are within a couple of degrees of the expected values in ice and boiling water. Great customer service to reach out and make sure the issues I was having were resolved! The app is great and I haven't had any connectivity issues. This allows you to smoke and monitor the temperature from your phone. With the configurable alarms, I'll get alerts at set temperatures which is super convenient. I can now highly recommend this thermometer and Govee customer support! Initial review: Great in so many ways other than providing an accurate temperature. In a cold water bath, it reads 50 degrees. In boiling water, it reads 245 degrees. Disappointing, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to calibrate this unit.

I purchased this unit to replace an older dedicated unit that performed flawlessly until I acidentally left it outside in the rain. I often do extended smoking (12-16 hours +) and need a very reliable unit. It's on its maiden voyage and these are my "first impressions". I may update later depending on further use. The good: I like the storage clips that come with the probes. Most don't have this feature and consequently the cords get all tangled up. The unit has a number of options for mounting - magnetic, built in stand and a wire hook. Having tried all 3, I found that using an "S" hook next to my smoker and hanging the monitor on this works the best. The bad: I wish that the wires on the probes were a bit longer. Probe #1 is in the back of the smoker and I use it to monitor the smoker temp. Probes #2 & #3 (current usage) are in a pork butt and some country style ribs. If the cords were just about a foot longer, this would be ideal ... they can reach now, but there isn't any extra length to allow for movement when I will need to wrap the meat. Also the app is very sensitive and drops the connection frequently even though I am only about 20 feet away from the unit at all times. This may be due to other bluetooth signals and/or wifi signals in the area, I'm not sure. It took a bit of time to figure out the app, but that's expected. I'm sure once I get more familiar with the settings, it will be a breeze. Compared to the old (Smart BBQ) one though, it's a lot tougher to figure out. Finally, there is a warning in the instructions that the probe cords should NEVER get wet. Hopefully the occasional rain shower while smoking won't affect the probe cables, but it would be better if they were better insulated. So far I give it 4 stars, if the app would hold the connection better, I would upgrade it to 5.

Works well and keeps the precise temperature. Easy to wash and store away.
