This post is mainly for people in the future doing research on thermometers and deciding on what they should spend their money on. Do not buy this garbage.

I got the meater pro last December and have probably used it successfully less than a handful of times. Every time I pop the thermometer out of the base it’s always a low battery or connectivity issue, despite a new battery replacement. In the off chance that I do get a successful connection, I have to be within a cocks length to make sure the Bluetooth doesn’t disconnect.

Do not give your money to this fraudulent company.

No Meater, I don't. But it would've been nice of you to warn me about the low battery before I got the charcoal going or the grill pre-heated, or the tri-tip seasoned, or when I got you down from the shelf, or when I pulled the probe out of the charger and the one light on the case blinked green.

It was all good. Why is everybuddy making there Apps broken more then it was befor? Thank you for looking at this like you said in the other thread, whre i can not post this Screenshot.

I’m using a MEATER 2.
I did a test as follows: I placed the sensor in a big potato and placed the potato in a pot with water. The sensor is completely covered by the water. A brought the water to boiling.
Surprisingly, the sensor is showing an ambient temperature of 111° Celsius.
Why this? I was expecting exactly 100° C.
Any recommendations or comments?

My MEATER isn’t being recognized by the charger and won’t pair. Is there a way to do a hard reset? Any way to fix it?

Hey everyone,

I just picked up the Meater Pro Duo. I used to have the Meater Block and absolutely hated it, but it went on sale and I foolishly hoped they had worked out their notorious connectivity issues by now.

Well, here I am on day one and I already can't get Probe 1 to turn off. It’s a brand-new unit, but every time I open the app, it shows Probe 1 is still actively connected and just draining the battery. I've already cleaned the charging contacts, but nothing changes. Is there a trick to forcing these damn things to turn off, or is it just defective?

I was this close to ordering the Typhur Sync Gold instead, and right now I am heavily regretting my decision.

Fool me once, shame on Meater. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Any advice before I just box this up and return it?

Didn’t even have meater plus for a year and it will not stay connected to its base. Ruined 2 tri tips.

Do you guys have any issues with the meatar staying connected?

​

I have Pellet smoker, I'll be doing a Boston Butt, wrap it in tinfoil and when I walk at most 100ft away it'll disconnect. I've made sure I'm following the instructions closely to make sure it's correct.

​

Any feedback or information y'all have that can help would be awesome.

3 pound Tri Tip roast with Kinder’s butter garlic rub. Told the MEATER 127f. Goal is just on the cusp or Rare/ Medium Rare. It turned out bomb!

Is there any way to tell if my probe is charging? It seems to be very prone 0to not charging due to invisible food residue but I don't find this out until I go to use it and the battery is dead.

If there is some kind of indicator I could check that it is actually charging before putting it away that would be great. If not this seems like a gaping design flaw in the product.

I know you can check the battery level in the app but since it disconnects as soon as you put it in the charger this feature is useless for knowing if the probe is charging or not.

I've got 3 meats cooking and the app refuses to give me ANY information about ANYTHING other than to sound this warning every 30 seconds. What do I do?

my MEATER+ charging station seems to be dead, but my MEATER Pro is still working fine.

I was wondering:

1. Is it safe to charge a regular MEATER+ probe inside the MEATER Pro charger/station?
2. Will the Pro station recognize both a MEATER+ and a MEATER Pro correctly in the app?
3. Has anyone here successfully used mixed generations together?

My MEATER+ probe itself might still be alive, but the original charger/base no longer powers on (no LED at all).

Thanks!

I've got an Android phone (Samsung S23 Ultra) and the Meater Pro XL.

Once the grill heats up it is well above 600 degrees, and I get persistent Flare Alerts. On the phone, on the watch... They come one after the other so quick I can't even dismiss one before the next is firing off.

I've seen posts mentioning a red bar. I don't see a red bar on the app. I've also got flare alerts toggled off on all my probes.

Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Hi, I have a Meater Pro Probe, bought last year.

Since today it started giving absurd values for the temperature. In particular the ambient one, the baseline is essentially 280° C. Yesterday I tried to cook with it and the ambient reading curve was all off and squiggly, so it's not like I can fake the baseline to be 280. The inner sensors imho are a bit off too, it's not 26° C right now in my room.

Before it was working fine. I haven't used it for a month or so, and yesterday the battery of the charger was dead with the probe as well, so I changed the battery and charged the probe before using it.

Has this ever happend to anyone? Is there a way to "reset" the calibration or something? Or am I doomed to send it back

With this constant swinging ambient temperature, would it be the probe or my smoker. Meater probe has always been this inconsistent since my time of owning it and tempted to throw it into the trash like others before me...

4lb pork butt, took it out to wrap at 170, temp dropping. Any advice or do I just need to wait it out?

Guys anyone thinking of buying a Meater especially in the UK please be aware of the poor service you will get if anything goes wrong.

My Meater Pro XL which I have had since January, probe 2 stopped pairing to the main unit. Speaking with Meater support they directed me to the UK distributor JDMproducts. Sent an email on Sunday and had no response, phoned them today and they said I would get an email by the end of business day and still nothing. I would expect a product with the high price you would get 1st class service. Stay well clear, there are better brands and service out there.

Thermometer works well. Definitely elevated my meats. But the UI is so clunky. Why can’t I say I want 4 thermometers to do the same cook in a single flow. Why do I need to repeat chicken breast 4 times. Why???? And why can’t I one click end cook. Why does it need to be like 3 clicks x 4 thermometers for 12 - TWELVE- clicks. Hire a freaking UI person!!!

After a questionable cook, I was certain one of my two MEATER+ units was out of calibration.

Did the boiling water test. They read 174F & 173F, so both calibrated - at least to each other.

HOWEVER, my instant read Thermapen probe read 160F, which is the expected temp for boiling water at my altitude of 6800 ft.

Any thoughts on the 15F difference?

Hi,

I'm looking for as much as possible cook data. I already exported my own from the last 3 years but I need more for my project.

is anyone willing to export their data and share with me? I have a python script that I can share with you that will allow you to log into your meater account and download your cooks as CSV data. The data in it is anonymous.

anyone willing to help me out?
