Review: Oregon Scientific AW131 Grill Right Wireless Talking BBQ/Oven Thermometer

Friday, June 13th, 2008

I don’t know about you, but I love setting meat on fire. It’s a fantastic and educational hobby. Recently, however, I was shocked (shocked I say!) to discover that once you’re done setting meat on fire, if you do it properly, you can eat the burnt meat! It was a total revelation to me as well.

Meat Burning, or “Grilling” as it’s known to practitioners of the hobby, is quite complex and difficult. Cook something too long and it’s all dry and crumbly, cook it for too short of a time and you risk killing yourself and those you cook for. What makes matters more complicated is that different meats cook for different lengths of time.

It takes careful timing and a close eye with a meat thermometer to make sure that you’ve grilled your meat to perfection. But what if you want to invite a bunch of people over to set meat on fire with you? Then you’re stuck alone by the meat fire, jabbing it with a prong and hoping that you’ve killed all the bacteria hidden within. It doesn’t make for a very fun party.

Well, worry no longer. The Oregon Scientific AW131 Grill Right Wireless Talking BBQ/Oven Thermometer has come to save the day. You just jab the transmitter’s probe into your piece of meat, set the receiver with meat type and target doneness and walk away. The receiver on your belt will let you know when the food is just about done, and then let you know when it’s ready to roll. It has a great range and it’s loud enough to hear it over party music.

There are a lot of products like this, but I’m really fond of this model for a couple of reasons:

  • Stylish: It has a cool red finish, and it doesn’t make you feel stupid walking around with it
  • Accurate: I’ve used digital meat thermometers before, and I’ve been less than impressed by how well it can tell the difference between “Medium” and “bloody.” If I wanted a rare steak I would have ordered unicorn.
  • Loud voice: You don’t need to use one of these things when you’re grilling for the family. You bust something like this out when you’re having a party, and parties are loud. It’s nice that the device is loud as well.
  • Manual set timer: I like to time out things like pre-heating and veggies and such. It’s nice that it’s a timer as well

There is also one downside to the Oregon Scientific AW131 Grill Right Wireless Talking BBQ/Oven Thermometer. When you select what type of meat it shows a little digital picture of what you’re going to cook. There’s a little sheep for lamb, a cow for beef, etc. I know what the word “Pork” means without needing to see what the animal was before it was cut into delicious pieces.

All in all, for the difficult task of safely setting meat on fire while being a good host, you can’t go wrong with the Oregon Scientific AW131 Grill Right Wireless Talking BBQ/Oven Thermometer.
