Its a wireless temp probe for cooking that you control via mobile app. What's cool is how you can program your protein and it adjusts as it cooks to give an estimated time remaining based on temp. For things like steak and chicken its pretty handy or bbq if you're needing a more accurate window on when to drop your sides based on an estimated cook completion time of your main course.
I received it as a gift and not sure I'd spring for it myself as it comes across a bit more pretentious than need be, but it is pretty slick.
I'm compelled to circle back on this.
Several weeks ago I was smoking a brisket and using this Meater+
Towards the end of the cook, I carelessly, lets call it too many beers in, tried to remove the probe with my bare hand. Of course I burnt the shit out of myself and flung the Meater+ which landed on the grate, hanging down above the coals like a Chad in the 2000 election.
Since it was towards the end of the cook and temps were dwindling, I didn't figure much damage could be done and as soon as the fire was completely out, I'd retrieve it.
Go out the next day and the Meater+ is nowhere to be found. I combed through the spent coals and nothing, nada.
Assuming it was kaput and mostly disintegrated, I continued to cook on the Egg at least a half dozen times. Adding new fuel and easily reaching +700F temps.
Fast forward to this afternoon as I'm doing a total tear down cleanse and lo and behold. There she is, beneath the remains.
Gave her a Dawn dish soap soak, updated the firmare and BAM! back in business.
Welcome back ol girl. Next time you go in the fire I'm reaching in like Krull to get you, even though I know I don't need to, your loyalty and resiliency will not go unnoticed.
I did some research and found the Braun Series 9 is considered the best for thick hair but I wasn't sure the almost $300 price tag was worth it. I found there was a stripped down (accessory-wise) version for $200 so decided to pull the trigger.
I don’t know if there was a packaging error at the plant or what, but I went into a local discount and purchased a Braun for $22(whatever model was on the box, long since thrown away.
Got it home, unpacked it and was surprised by how well it worked.
Turned out to be a Braun 9. Helluva shaver. Best I’ve owned. [Reply]
For some reason my neighbors don't like when i play the instrument but i just think they don't have any taste in music.
Was able to choose this one with the help of prime sound blog, thanks them for that.
That was my dream from the childhood to play an instrument and finally after so many years it came true. [Reply]
