On the 4th Day of Christmas… A Thermapen Giveaway! (Winner Announced)

December 6, 2011      2,046 comments »

UPDATE: The winner of the Thermapen instant-read digital thermometer is:

#1,344 – Jaclyn: Her entry on being a Facebook fan was the winner, but how does she like her steak? “I like my steaks medium rare :) ”

Congratulations Jaclyn! You should have already received an email from me; make sure you reply with your mailing address so I can get your thermometer in the mail to you!

Thanks everyone for entering, and good luck as the giveaways continue! :)

Welcome to Day 4 of the 12 Days of Giveaways!

Yesterday I gave away one of my kitchen essentials – a kitchen scale. Today I am following that up with another piece of essential equipment in my kitchen – an instant-read digital thermometer. And not just any thermometer – a Thermapen. It’s pretty much the Cadillac of digital thermometers and has received the “Highest Recommended” tag from Cook’s Illustrated.

The Thermapen is basically super duper awesome. It was originally created for commercial kitchens – it reads a temperature to 0.7°F accuracy within 3 seconds. It’s water-resistant and can be used on anything and everything from meats to bread to deep frying to candy. You can use it for everything, it’s insanely fast and accurate… it’s no wonder I’m totally in love with mine. And I want you to have one too!

Giveaway Details

One winner will receive one (1) Thermapen instant-read digital kitchen thermometer.

    Oh Michelle, this has been on my wishlist for so long! I think I actually gasped when I saw I had even a remote possibility of winning one. :) My steaks are cooked WELL done. It’s a travesty for those that love a tender piece of meat, but I can’t bring myself to eat it any less. Thanks!

    I am a medium to medium-well done girl. I would just flip out to own one of these. I could finally cook steaks at home correctly instead of literally butchering them every time.

    Sarah Z. on December 6, 2011 at 12:24 am

    I love my meat cooked medium rare personally. The meat is more tender and full of flavor that way I think. I heard these thermapens are the best to have as far as cooking meat. Thanks for giving us a chance to own one :)
