can I use an oven thermometer?

We use an instant thermometer with no problem. It is not an oven as it has no insulation. I would not think an oven thermometer would be desirable because what you really need to know is the temperature of the food you are cooking rather than the temperature of the surrounding space. In an oven food starts to cook at about 180F and the length of time it takes to cook is very dependent on the amount of liquid the food contains.

sure! We use one of those with a probe attached to a cord to the display thing. Just run it under the plastic dome.

I never did but I don't see why not it is an oven, basically. Don't let it touch the top housing... I hope this helps.

Yes, you crack open the door to your oven, point the gun in, aiming away from the heating elements and pull the trigger. In one second it will tell you what the temperature is in your oven. It's great for checking your oven thermostat for accuracy.

No, you can open the oven door and take an instant reading. But, keep in mind that the oven temperature will drop any time you have the dooropen and it may take a short period of time to reach back to the reading you just observed. Dick Y

I did not "calibrate" my oven thermometer I just just the Admetior in the middle of the oven. Heated it to 350. Checked they were the same. 20 minutes later I checked again and they were the same. I can't really read my oven thermometer anymore, but at least I know it works.

My Polder thermometer is a different model, but I have ordered new probes from Amazon for mine. I would be confident enough to order this probe for a newer Polder gauge. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002GUJ82I/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER I think the polder is an excellent oven thermometer. The first one I had had a wire mesh shield on the temp probe, the new ones have a synthetic shield that holds up great.

While I have only used this thermometer for the BBQ grill, I suspect it can also be used for indoor oven. It comes with two probes - one for meat and the other for internal temperatue (Grill or oven). I am very pleaed with this product, hope the info helps.

I have never used mine in the oven but I'm guessing that you could; however I don't know what would be considered a safe temp.

measurement range is minus 58 to 400 degrees with included thermocouples. for the oven you will need the optional hi temp thermocouple, which goes up to 2000 degrees.

The thermometer will give an instant read and will continue to read if the temperature is changing.There is a hold button so you can always see what the last reading was. It does have an auto off after 10 min.As answered in all the others "IT CANNOT BE LEFT IN THE OVEN" However if you are warming a liquid you can leave the probe in as long as you like

If you go to the ThermoWorks website you can buy a probe specially-made for doing air temps. It includes a little bracket to help you attach it to a grill. It's less than $20. I'm thinking of getting one to test the temp of my oven. Hope that helps, Joe

To measure the temperature of the cooker: No. It regulates itself but you can if you're curious. For the meat: I would highly recommend using a high quality digital thermometer to determine the final temps of your meat. I use a Thermapen by Thermoworks and I always know where the meat is at and when it will be done.

I'd use a probe in an oven, not touching metal, but the heat from a BBQ will destroy the probe - IMO! You might get away with it several times, but the probe will not last on a covered grill.

The thermometer is to be inserted into the meat you are cooking. It doesn't matter if you are cooking the meat on a grill or in an oven. It shows the temperature of the meat, not the grill or oven. Hope this helps.

This is not the kind of thermometer you can leave in the oven if that's what you're asking.

No. This thermometer is designed to be used only outside the oven. The manual explicitly warns not to put it into the oven. The probe shaft is metal, but the dial and controls are plastic.

I think you can. Like most silicone cookware, oven temp should not exceed 350.

Keep in mind that this is designed as meat thermometer and is intended to measure the temperature of the meat(while cooking) it only goes to 200 degrees. I don't think you want to leave it the oven at any temperature higher than 200 degree. That being said this works fine for checking the temperature of meat, however I would purchase a different model for use as a over thermometer, fortunately Amazon has many to choose from. I hope that helps you.
