If you're in the market for a high-quality meat thermometer and find yourself confused between the Meater Plus and Meater Pro, this blog post is here to help. Both devices are highly popular, but they have distinct features that set them apart. Whether you're an amateur home cook or a professional, understanding the differences between the Meater Plus and Meater Pro can help you choose the best thermometer for your needs.
The Meater Plus is a second-generation wireless thermometer that connects directly to your phone via Bluetooth. It's designed with simplicity and convenience in mind. The Meater Plus features a main probe sensor that reads the internal temperature of the meat, along with an ambient sensor at the rear of the probe, allowing it to measure both the temperature inside the meat and the surrounding cooking environment.
One of the standout features of the Meater Plus is its smart app integration. The app not only helps you track the current temperature but also predicts the cooking time based on the temperature you're aiming for. This makes cooking much easier, especially for beginners.
However, there are limitations with the Meater Plus. It's not submersible, so you can't immerse it in water or a deep fryer. It also can't withstand high temperatures, so you should avoid using it near direct flames, such as on a grill or broiler. Despite these drawbacks, the Meater Plus excels in low-temperature cooking scenarios, such as in ovens or sous-vide, and is ideal for those looking for a simple, easy-to-use thermometer.
The Meater Pro builds on the strengths of the Meater Plus but adds significant improvements, making it more durable and versatile. For one, it’s made almost entirely of stainless steel, except for a small ceramic strip that allows the signal to transmit. This robust design makes the Meater Pro fully submersible, meaning you can safely clean it in the sink and even use it in a deep fryer without worrying about damage.
Another major upgrade is the additional sensors in the Meater Pro’s main probe. Unlike the Meater Plus, which only has one sensor in the probe, the Meater Pro features five sensors that measure the temperature from the tip to the center of the meat. This provides a more precise reading and gives you greater control over your cooking.
The Meater Pro is also designed to withstand higher temperatures compared to the Meater Plus, making it suitable for grilling and other high-heat cooking methods. However, like the Meater Plus, it includes the ambient probe, which is helpful in monitoring the cooking environment.
Both the Meater Plus and Meater Pro offer a “Meater Blocks” option, which allows you to use multiple probes simultaneously. This is ideal if you’re cooking large cuts of meat or different types of food at once. The Meater Blocks are equipped with Wi-Fi, which is a significant improvement over the Bluetooth-only connectivity of the standard models. Wi-Fi connectivity allows you to monitor your cooking from anywhere, even if you’re far from your kitchen or grill.
While Bluetooth works well within a short range, Wi-Fi is the preferred option for larger cooking spaces, as it can cover longer distances and isn’t affected by thick steel chimneys or ceramic kitchens.
Ultimately, the choice between Meater Plus vs Meater Pro comes down to your specific needs:
No matter which one you choose, both the Meater Plus and Meater Pro will help you cook your meat to perfection every time.
