Cooking with Metallic Foil
If your recipe calls for wrapping or covering the meat in tinfoil, Smart Thermometer must be pierced through the foil itself and into the meat. To maintain a connection, the black tip of the thermometer must be clear of any metallic foil obstruction.
What are the Temperature Limits?
Smart Thermometer, when correctly used, can withstand up to 210°F (99°C) of internal meat temperature and 572°F (300°C) of ambient cooking temperature for any duration of time. It can also withstand flare-ups of 1100°F (593°C) for up to 3 minutes. The dock should never be placed on a hot surface.
My Turkey has Pink Juices. Is it Safe to Eat?
A turkey with pink juices is perfectly safe to eat if the meat has reached 165°F in both the breast and thigh. Check the temperature in both areas, as they can cook at different rates. The pink juices are caused by a protein called myoglobin that’s stored within the muscles and is found mixed with water as the pink fluid. Depending on the acidity (pH) of the meat, which can vary from one turkey to the next, the myoglobin may not change color until the meat reaches as high as 180°F — and that would result in an overcooked turkey.
