The Full Review
The MEATER Plus solves the biggest annoyance of wired probes — the wire. No threading cables through vents, no melted insulation, no tangled mess. Stick the probe in the meat, close the lid, and monitor from your phone.
The dual sensor design is clever. One sensor measures internal meat temperature, the other measures ambient grill temperature. The app uses both to estimate remaining cook time, and it's surprisingly accurate.
The guided cook feature walks beginners through selecting meat type, target doneness, and cooking method. It then monitors and alerts you when to wrap, rest, and serve. It's like having a pitmaster in your pocket.
The Plus model's 165-foot Bluetooth range is sufficient for indoor monitoring while the grill runs outside. I've had reliable connections from my living room through two walls to the patio.
Who Is It For?
Smoker enthusiasts tired of managing probe wires. Tech-forward cooks who want phone-based monitoring. Beginners who want guided cooking assistance.
Final Verdict
The MEATER Plus is the best wireless meat probe available. At $100 for a single probe, it's not cheap — but the convenience of truly wireless monitoring is worth the premium.
