Upgrade Replacement Thermometer for Big Green Egg, with 3.3" Large Dial

I love this temp gauge. Replaced the bands and gasket on my Big Green Egg and decided I'd change out the dome temp gauge; the old one had started getting condensation inside, and I wanted a larger one. Temped it for accuracy when it came in and it was spot-on. My BGE is about 15 feet from the back door and this gauge is large enough for me to look out the door and across the deck and easily see what temp I'm running. And it goes up to 900°F! Don't really need that, but 700° for pizza is common. I highly recommend this item.

I had a Tel-Tru in my Big Green Egg for a number of years until it broke. Since it did a good job I ordered another Tel-Tru BQ325R here on Amazon. Unfortunately, the Tel Tru that I bought was leaky and within a short period of time there was water in it. Drops of water, not just a little bit. If you look at the reviews for Tel-Tru it's not an uncommon complaint. Bought one of these because the Tel-Tru failed and it's worked really well. It's accurate - compared it with another thermometer that clips on to the grate and most importantly it doesn't leak. Have had it out in the weather and the inside is as dry as a bone. Another big benefit - this thermometer is significantly less expensive. Next time I need a new one for my Egg, I'm getting another one of these. Why spend twice as much for a lousy product. Tel-Tru has really dropped the ball.

Nice looking and easy to read. Appears sturdy enough. Haven’t had the opportunity to try it.

Its big, alot bigger than the original that came with my green egg so it takes some getting used to - what i mean by that, is that i know where 250 is on my old thermometer at just a glance but with this one, i have to walk up to it and check, just something different to get used to, But unfortunately mine will not read above 425- just stays there, doesnt seem to be hitting the backing or binding anywhere, just defective i guess, So do yourself a favor and check to make sure you are getting the full range of the thermometer, don't wait till you want to sear a steak in order to find out it doesn't work, Im passed my return time so ill just use it for low and slow. other than that not a bad thermometer. UPDATE: this company stands by there product got a free replacement and this one works perfect. Wouldn’t hesitate to purchase from them. Good product and great customer service

Seems to work well.

I can read it from a mile away!

More accurate temperature than the previous BGE thermometer.

Big and easy to read!

It's a great size, visible from, afar, and seems good quality materials. The only concern is that the clamp-on device is pretty thin, as is the thermometer stem it has to hold onto. I'm going to add a fender washer ( big diameter, small hole) to give the clamp a better surface to hold onto. Otherwise, I'm a happy customer!

Thanks!!

Tested the temp with boiling water and it was accurate. Excellent start. Went to use it the second time and the dial fogs up for some reason. I’m cooking at 24c ambient temp so no reason for that to happen. Not happy.
