Taylor Commercial Digital Thermometer

I have become a stronger believe in having a thermometer readily available in order to check the temperature of your meats. There are traditional ways to get around this, such as slicing the meat or using a utensil to poke it and check the center for juices. However, the truth is that all of those ways are pretty messy, and take away from the look of the final product. Sometimes, it’s just really hard to accurately check if a chicken is done unless you either tear it up or stick in a thermometer. The Taylor Commercial Digital Thermometer does all this and more. I definitely recommend keeping one in your kitchen arsenal.
