These thermometers seem to be essentially the same as others I've purchased in the past from different vendors. I wonder if they are all being OEMed from the same manufacturer but with different printing on the dials to customize them for the seller.

One thing that not all the sellers tell you (but Cusinart, to their credit, does in the included instructions) is that these thermometers are not safe to use on your grill in the manner you would expect and desire. Instead they make a big deal about them being dishwasher safe! What is not mentioned on the web page is that you must insert and immediately remove the thermometers once you've taken a reading. You are not supposed to leave them in the meat while it is on the grill and the lid is closed. Apparently these "Outdoor Grilling" thermometers can't take the heat in a grill. I have used another version of these sold under the Taylor brand without knowing about this restriction and they did indeed stop working after a few sessions of being left in the meat while it was grilling.

So, if you find it convenient to insert these thermometers into hot steaks and them remove them (they are also now hot) after a minute or so then you might find them handy. And this particular set of 4 I purchased was reasonably accurate or at least consistent (three read essentially the same in 140 degree water and one was a slight bit low but probably still useable for this application)

I wish I could find somemone who made a grill thermometer that could actually stand up to the heat in a charcoal or propane grill. If that's what you were looking for, then you might want to keep looking...

I rated these thermometers 1 star but would prefer to rate them no stars, if Amazon would let me, since the gauges didn't even move. We had steaks on the grill and we knew they were near done. Put the Cuisinart steak thermometers in them and after 30 second no reading. We put our old digital fork type thermometer in them and they were done. Go figure? These steak thermometers aren't even worth the time you spend thinking about buying them. Horrible product!

Used these twice just to make sure. The temp does not reflect the doneness of the meat. Thermometer read MW and the meat was still rare.

Honest reviews on Cuisinart Outdoor Grilling Steak Thermometers, Set of Four

I wish there was a ZERO rating!

These thermometers all show a different temperature with my hot water test. (So..which one is correct)?

They are very slow to attain their temperature reading, so while you are waiting for the reading, your steak will already be in the next done-ness state.

NOT GOOD, but I suppose you could develop a future temperature prediction plan.

When a NAME BRAND like Cuisinart moves to CHINA, expect the worse possible quality.

I can't think of anything to do with these things except toss 'em.

This is a nice grill. Easy to put together and all the parts were there. It was shipped quickly and I received it in good condition. I don't think the flame deflectors are going to last very long, but will see. The four wheels are nice with two locking wheels on the back. Electronic flame ignition uses a triple A battery. I like it because you just push the button and hold it until it lights. You can hear the ticking of the spark. The shelves on the side are sturdy and fold down nicely when your finished with the grill. I used thread lock on all the screws so they won't loosen up over time. The door is sturdy and has a double magnet top and bottom. The handles for the door and lid are very sturdy. The propane tank sits securely in the bottom with a butterfly nut and bolt that tightens onto the base of the tank. You will have to keep it covered and out of the weather, it's painted metal, not rust proof. For the $185.00 and free shipping it's a great deal. Stores in my area are selling them from 225.00 275.00, I would not have purchased one at those prices.

I had grill in the past but never something like this one.

1) All the grease/Fat is leaking from the back and not as supposed to.

2) The heat is not leveled, only the inside half of the grill has good heat while the front area is not really functional which makes it a very small BBQ Grill and not worth the $$$ and time I have spent on it.

I am usually not into bad reviews what so ever but this time I could have not let anyone else to make the same mistake as I did.

I recently purchased a Cobb grill and needed a grill pan that would allow me to easily cook a lot of vegetables. I purchased this item because the measurements listed on the Amazon website made me think that this pan would fit inside the dome of the Cobb grill. Unfortunately, the 11" description on the website does not accurately reflect the real size of this pan. The 11" refers to the pan WITHOUT the handles. As a result, the pan would NOT fit inside the Cobb dome.

Fortunately, the handles were only spot welded on, so my husband was able to easily snap the handles off of the pan. Without the handles, the Grill Wok fits perfectly inside my Cobb grill. The pan is sturdy and has an easily cleaned non-stick coating.

I was displeased that the website description was inaccurate, but now that we have solved the problem, I like the pan.

item arrived with one end of one of the handles detached. after a couple months of use, that handle fell off entirely. This made it impossible to use in the way I wanted, in which the handles were holding the basket on a rim directly above the coals. So i had to find a new use for it, and needed to remove the other handle. I was able to twist off the other handle with just normal arm strength.

The "nonstick" is a joke too, although given the price and the amount of heat this thing is subjected to I wasn't expecting that to last. Teflon coatings don't work in these things -I'm going to a steel or copper basket.

Best Deals for Kingsford KNS70 Grill Wok with Handles

I had ordered this one off Amazon. Price was cheap but for non-stick the coating came off it. Just have to keep it oiled and then keep it clean. I use it on 10,000 BTU burner and place all my chopped veggies into it. But I must watch it so the veggies don't get burnt. You can also steam in this just use a cover on it. I use glass one. Veggies taste better too. You'll need oven gloves as the handles do get very hot to touch.

I am only giving this 4 out of 5 stars because the coating came off the wok grill, other than that it's not a bad grill.

Reviews of Napoleon Mirage 485 Rotis Kit

Napoleon 64485 Commercial Rotisserie Kit for Mirage M485
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
I have used this rotisserie kit at least 10 times since I have bought it and have had no issues at all with it.

Meat forks: The forks that come with the unit are sharp as can be a hold food perfectly.

Counterbalance: The counterbalance they give you does the trick perfectly so your food spins at an even speed the entire cooking time.

Cleaning: Easy.

Setup: This takes a bit of time each time you want to cook but once it is set, you don't need to even worry about it. When I cook a small chicken I set the temperate at about medium and leave it for 45-50 minutes and it is ready to go. The chickens turn out to be very juicy and tender!

What is really nice about cooking on the M485 is that you can put a tray under the chicken (or whatever food you are cooking) to catch all the drippings so your grill is extremely dirty the next time you cook. Plus since you are using your rear burner, you don't need to worry about flair ups or anything like that.

I also recommend trying a pinapple on the rotisserie. You cut each side off the pinapple and put it on the rotis kit and cook it. Near the end, you put some maple syrup or honey on the pinapple and it is very tasty. I hope you upload a picture to show you. Enjoy!

When they say "personal size" it means if you took an avocado and sliced it in half, it would fit. And a very small piece of fish with no marinade would work. If you have more than one person, or one person that is really hungry, these are not for you.

Have used these planks on a variety of fish: salmon, grouper, hake, swordfish. On all kinds of fish these planks really enhance the flavor noticeably. Only key item is to soak them in water for as long as possible (with a heavy object to ensure planks stay completely immersed)...I generally try to have them soak about 3 hours. This really moistens the wood planks provides most flavor and avoids planks being burned through (cook with BBQ at medium heat). Planks are high quality and durable, good for at least two uses. Just wash after use, air dry at least overnight and wrap in clear wrap until next use.

Best Deals for Elizabeth Karmel's 5.5- by 7.75 -inch Organic Cedar Personal

We got these to grill salmon outside on our grill. They worked just fine and kept the fish from sticking to the grill or falling apart. If you keep them away from direct heat you can reuse them in theory. Ours were put over direct low heat for faster cooking and were of course charred after 25 minutes. Grilled salmon is delicious though. So buy some planks if you like it as much as we do.

Honest reviews on Elizabeth Karmel's 5.5- by 7.75 -inch Organic Cedar Personal

While these worked well, it is a lot cheaper to just buy a length of cedar fencing and cut and sand it your self. Just make sure that it is not treated with anything.

Ordered these b/c we do ALOT of grilling. Just an FYI, if you are cooking for more than two people you might want to look at getting some bigger cedar boards. However, these are PERFECT when cooking for 1-2 people. The flavor it instills in fish and chicken is AWESOME! Would suggest these to everyone!

I had originally destroyed my old grill racks on my Grill Master grill by a year of heavy use and poor maintenance. The cost of an original replacement grill grid would have cost me nearly $150 which was ridiculous because the whole grill cost only $200 brand new. I was so happy when I found this replacement for about $50 and it works great. So far I have used it about 20 times. The fit isn't 100% exact but it's close enough for the price probably about 1/32 of an inch too short (enough to allow the grid to move a little when installing).

This pizza cooker works really well. I have a grill large enough to use 4 at a time. A couple of hints for using the cooker ;turn pan 180 degrees ocationally for more even cooking and when dough is just starting to get firm, slide a non stick spatula under to lift dough out of the holes in the pan.

I really wish I could give this product a good review. The pizza turns out great and the company has great customer service. But, unfortunately the product is seriously flawed. I bought two of these and the first pizzas I made were good and we ate them, but then I was cleaning the pans and realized the surface had come off. I could see it on the bottom of some of the uneaten pizza. Sure doesn't look healthy, but we'd already downed them. So I called the manufacturer and with very little discussion they sent me two new pans that I received just a couple days later. Super customer service. This time I well oiled the pans and used prodigious amounts of flour on the bottom of the pizza. The problem was much less but the pizzas were still peppered with the pan coating. When the pans are clean you can see the bare spots where it flaked off. This can't be healthy and frankly even though the company was very supportive, the product should be pulled for safety reasons. Bummer! If anyone knows of an alternative that doesn't flake please reply. Maybe there is a cast iron pan out there with holes I could use on top of the heat shields?

This is an excellent addition to both the outdoor and indoor kitchen. Zagrill makes a great pizza on the grill, is easy to use, and clean up. The pizza cooks up evenly, and the crust comes out crisp, the toppings and cheese evenly cooked, and the crust does not tend to fall through the grill racks as it had before on me. Regulating the temperature on the grill posed a little challenge, by using the outside burners, as opposed to the burner directly under Zagrill, I was able to keep the temp at an even 350F. When I use this in the oven, I use the Zagrill one level below center position in the oven, and have had many great pizzas,stuffed breads, and calzones.

Honest reviews on Eastman Outdoors 90414 BBQ Grill Pizza Pan

I use this for hand-tossed pizzas and it works quite well. It takes about 11 minutes to cook in a grill that has been pre-heated about 15 minutes. The pizza cooks evenly and the crust is perfectly done. My only gripe is that I wish you could get a bigger pan so that one could cook a larger (14-17") pizza.

Za Grill makes great pizza. The big secret is that just using the bottom part and closing the gas grill you can bake almost anything! We bake quiche, pies, chicken etc. and don't have to heat up the house! We have 2 Za Grills so we can cook 2 pizzas at once or larger quantities of other food.

Good product, fits just like the original flame tamer. I am only giving it four stars, because I feel Cuisinart should have included a set of replacement clips which hold the flame tamer centered and in place. Without new clips the flame tamer shifts either forward or backward if you are not gentle when turning the items you are grilling or if you bump the grill. When this does happen the flame will escape the flame tamer and create direct areas where the flame creates hot spots on your grilling items.
