Inkbird
4.3
(46)
"I have an inkbird IBT-6xs and I love it. It's only bluetooth so it may not be great for everyone. I highly recommend them, their app is great and it's very responsive."
"Huge fan of inkbird wireless, not bluetooth. 4 probes, simple reliable app. monitor from anywhere."
"I switched to Inkird 4 probe wifi after having range and disconnection issues with a ThermoPro Bluetooth unit. Agreed that the Inkbird is great value! Works really well, and I have had none of the connection/range problems."
"I got an Inkbird recently and love it. I will say the temperature is more accurate when you take the little rubber things off the end of the probes."
"I use my Inkbird 4 probe Bluetooth multiple times per week whether smoking, grilling, roasting in the oven, or slow cooker."
"IV been running the ink bird waterproof, 4 probe Bluetooth versions for a couple of years and have no issues with it."
"Meater is shit IMO. Inkbird is fantastic bang for the buck."
"I went cheap(er) with an inkbird and love it. After a year, I've never had a problem with it."
"The Wi-Fi feature is great because it lets me do other things around the house."
"Try the Inkbird IBBQ-4T. There are 4 probes included (color coded). This product has been a staple in my life for about a year."

"Have been rocking a fireboard for years. Have never regretted the cost."
"I’ve got the FireBoard and love it."
"Love my fireboard! Alittle pricey but never let me down. Battery lasts for almost 2 brisket cooks ha"
"Second this, Fireboard has been fantastic"
"I've had a fire board for 3 years. It works perfectly and has the ability to manager 6 probes."
"Have been using a Fireboard for some years now and it has never let me down."
"Love my Fireboard. Also am digging the new Spark from Fireboard as well."
"The best is Fireboard, but that's out of your budget. Seriously consider it though, I love mine."
"FireBoard will do all that you ask."
"Love mine too. My grill has WiFi probes and I still prefer my fireboard."

Thermoworks
4.5
(22)
"I bought Signals on sale a couple weeks ago and couldn't be happier! It's a bit pricey but now that I know this is something I love to do, it's worth the money."
"Seconding the Thermoworks Signals. It's a pricey product, but "buy once, cry once". You get what you pay for."
"Any Thermoworks product. Little bit more money but you will only need to buy it once"
"I have a ThermoWorks Signals and really like it, it’s both wi-fi and Bluetooth."
"I use Thermoworks Signals. Thermoworks and Fireboard are the gold standards."
"ThermoWorks Signals. 4 probes, including smoker temp. Works 12+ hours on a single charge, and has both Bluetooth rams WiFi capabilities. Cannot recommend enough."
"I recently got thermoworks signals. Its fantastic and way better than the built in probe that came with my traeger."
"If you want to upgrade on top of the smoke, I recommend their Signals thermometer. It has 4 probes, connects via Bluetooth and wifi."
"Thermoworks 4 probes, Wifi and bluetooth : https://www.thermoworks.com/Signals"
"Signals from Thermoworks is definitely tip top."

Meater
3.5
(21)
"MEATER - 100% satisfaction rate on my grill oven and smoker."
"In the end I bought the "Meater" thermometer...I have not been disappointed...tha App is amazing"
"Love my Meaters. Have + and the new one as well. They do operate best with a device nearby but once connected to cloud then pretty seamless."
"The Meater plus has a bluetooth booster in the charger and I use an old phone to connect to the home wifi. It works really well for me."
"No issues with my meater yet. Doesn’t have the range they advertise but not a deal breaker"
"I have an original Meater+, it works great. I suspect most of the negative reviews are from people who aren't using it correctly."
"Never had a problem with my MEATER 2 probe. Occasionally it will disconnect for a few seconds but other than that I’ve had it maintain connections for 8-10 hour cooks no issues."
"MEATER is great. It’s as accurate as the traeger probe but the Bluetooth kinda sucks.. if you walk away with your phone it disconnects like 4 feet away it’s ridiculous with the price tag it has."
"I have a Meater + and it works a treat. Great for use with a rotisserie. No pesky wires!"
"Check out Meater. I’ve been very happy with mine"

ThermoWorks
4.6
(15)
"I have the 4 probe wifi version, added the specific ambient temp probe for smoke temps at the grate and my results got much better."
"Second Thermoworks. Great product *and* great customer service."
"I’ve had a thermo works smoke with a wifi gateway for almost ten years now. It has remained super accurate and trustworthy throughout almost a decade."
"I use a Thermoworks Smoke with their add on Wifi gateway. works great."
"I’d suggest something using RF or WI-FI so it’s either further distance (RF like ThermoWorks Smoke or Signals) or cloud enabled (like ThermoWorks with their WI-FI gateway for example)."
"Thermoworks vision or fireboard are the best out. Both are wifi/bluetooth/cloud enabled with apps on your phone."
"Check out the Smoke from ThermoWorks. ThermoWorks has a wifi adaptor that will probably be exactly what you are looking for."
"I've been happy with the Thermoworks Smoke, I also have the wireless gateway so I can monitor from anywhere."
"The Thermoworks Smoke has a wi-fi option. The wireless range alone is claimed to be 300 feet and I have no reason to doubt it. I love mine."
"Thermoworks smoke. Not wifi or Bluetooth. Radio with a mile of range."

ThermoPro

(12)
"Try TP20 from ThermoPro. The temperature of each probe is shown on the sending unit, which can hold up to two probes."
"ThermoPro TP20 Wireless Remote Digital Meat Thermometer Cooking Food Thermometer with Dual Probe for Smoker Grill BBQ Thermometer."
"Stay away from Meaters. They have good branding and the app looks nice but the probes are shit. I received Thermopro Tempspike and just used it last night for the first time, I like them so far."
"I've been using the thermo pro temp spike. It's a completely cordless solution that monitors both ambient and meat temps."
"I have great luck with Thernopro thermometers. I really like the dual probe wireless with high and low alarms."
"ThermoPro TP20 with rtl_433 has worked well for me. It integrate with HA via MQTT."
"I have this four probe bluetooth one from ThermoPro. I like it a lot."
"ThermoPro TP-07 Digital Wireless Remote Meat Cooking Thermometer ThermoPro."
"I got a ThermoPro TP65, there are a bunch of options."
"Not exactly what you asked for, but I use this inexpensive remote monitor."

MEATER

"The MEATER+ is a highly regarded wireless meat thermometer that offers both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity for remote"
"I use MEATER + for a while. I like that the meat thermometer is dishwasher safe and easy to clean."
"MEATER Plus changes the game. I have a large walk-in smokehouse cook house, and it's hard to just go in there to check the temperature of the meat without losing heat or dying from inhaling too much smoke."
"Meater+ gets my vote."
"I got a Meater+ and leave an old phone plugged in the outlet by the traeger connected with Bluetooth to the probe. I monitor the temp anywhere I can get cell service or WiFi through the app on my real phone."
"Just got the meater block as a gift and it is quite awesome. Calculates time remaining and rest period to ensure you don't overcook during rest."
"The Meater+ sends the signal to the case, which sends it much farther to a phone. The Meater block does a similar thing but puts it on Wifi. I am super happy with never having to deal with untangling or coiling wires."
"I have a MEATER+ and like it. It is a dual thermometer with one on the end so I can see the meat’s internal temp and the temp in the smoker."
"I have a Block, and it works great."

FireBoard

"More than your target but I really like the fireboard in my Yodersmoker 640, wanting to add another set like these."
"Fireboard or Thermoworks Signals"
"FireBoard 2 with a set of competition probes. You won’t find a better Wifi/cloud enabled thermometer or a better app."
"Decided to grab the fireboard 2 pro for the higher temp range when I want to do pizza. Loving how easy it was to get started."
"I have the FireBoard 2, it’s awesome, app is very simple, tracks your cooks and you can add all kinds of notes."
"FireBoard 2"

Weber

"Suggest Weber iGrill."
"The cheapest I can personally recommend is the Weber igrill i have never had problems with it only gripe is the wifi connection isn’t very far."
"The weber igrill2 has been a great thermometer for me. 4 probes, digital readout, Bluetooth and a really good app."
"Buddy of mine has a igrill set of wifi thermometers he loves them and i think it has 3 probes."
"I love my Weber iGrill 2. It has up to 4 probes, works over Bluetooth and has an app with the ability to do alarms for ranges or for set points."

"Extensive range and doesn’t disconnect like Bluetooth, and will still work if your internet ever acts up."
"Maverick ET-733. Doesn't get any better than that."
"I have the Maverick. But if I had to buy a new one, I'd go with the Thermoworks Smoke. Not wifi or Bluetooth though. But does have a wireless receiver."
