The Original Cooking Thermometer/Timer by ThermoWorks Review

The Original Cooking Thermometer/Timer by ThermoWorks
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I read the Cook's Illustrated magazine review. They rated this number 1. I called Thermoworks to ask about the probes. They said they are NOT "sometimes defective". But, over time heat and moisture can damage them. Or, if you let the cable rest against a heating element it will burn through the cable. So I got an extra probe. The price is fair. But still haven't needed it. I also asked about Polder. They said it is actually the same thermometer internally and made by the same factory in China. But they said they are not associated in any way with Polder. I've had mine since last Thanksgiving and I use it at least once a week in the oven or on the BBQ. It's easy to set and at this price I figured it was such a low risk. Since then I've decided its one of the best values in my kitchen. I also have the Thermapen - much higher price. Both work great. -- By the way, don't use the polder replacement probes. The one I tried was not accurate with this unit. Get the correct thermoworks one - TW362XX.

The TW362B has a robust design and a slide switch so the unit can be powered off. The well-loved simplicity means you won't need to find the instructions each time you set an alarm. The stylish housing folds the display up for counter use or flat for less obtrusive magnetic mounting to an appliance door. This is a huge kitchen favorite in commercial and home kitchens as well as industrial and lab use. Buy several for the kitchen, the BBQ, the RV, the vacation home or as gifts for friends.

Rachael Ray Stoneware 4-Quart Covered Bubble & Brown Casserole "Casseroval", Red Review

Rachael Ray Stoneware 4-Quart Covered Bubble and Brown Casserole Casseroval, Red

I've always wanted to get a Rachel Ray item and until recently she only had orange items, so I was very excited to see this red casseroval with AMAZON FREE SHIPPING!!!
First off, I didn't read the item description well, saw that it said "from stove to table" and stopped reading.
When I got the casseroval, I was so excited I opened the box, washed it, turned the stove on medium/high, and put pork chops on. Within 5 minutes, I heard a crack. The entire bottom was cracked into 4 large pieces. After cleaning up the mess and putting out a small fire (literally), I opened the instructions... first words in big black bold lettering: "DO NOT USE ON STOVETOP!!!" ... my $40 lesson learned.
Aside from that horrible lesson, I LOVED it for the 5 minutes that I took it out of the box, washed it, and put it onto the stove. The handles are large, it's not as heavy as a cast iron (which is stove to oven to table), and is a great size for a family of 4. You are to fit about 8 good sized pork chops into it (double layered) to put into the oven.
I must say that I even loved it enough that I will probably order another one, and this time, will be using IN THE STOVE and TO THE TABLE :) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Great pastry/dough scraper!! I have looked and looked in the stores for the Wilton pastry scraper to use on my silcone pastry mat. I found it here at Amazon. Just the right size for scraping the silcone mat clean of dough without harming the mat. Also great for scoring of scones before baking

Taylor Digital Cooking Thermometer with Probe and Timer Review

I ordered this item when my old timer (which is almost identical to this one) just went and stopped working on me one day. I loved the model I have, so I wanted something that was similar. This fit the bill. And it was cheaper! The meat thermometer works great and I haven't had any issue with this timer at all yet. (I've had it for less than six months.) My only complaint is that the on/off switch is kind of tough to slide back and forth at times. But it's not a dealbreaker for me.
