I love to barbecue as you probably noticed when I posted about crucial BBQ Gear earlier this month. One of the most important things during barbecue is measuring the temperature of the meat or fish you are cooking. I already own an analog traditional temperature sensor but that has some downsides: you have to open the BBQ to check the temperature and it does not give alerts nor does it have an app (yes I love apps and connectivity). So it is time to review a Bluetooth thermometer and especially the Digoo DG-FT2203 to put an end to analog measuring. No more worrying about the meat will be somewhat raw or rather overcooked? The Digoo DG-FT2203 bluetooth cooking thermometer will show and alert you exactly when your meat is ready.

Build Quality & Design

Design of the Digoo DG FT2203 is not in Apple or Xiaomi style, but what do you expect from a affordable kitchen barbecue devices like this. So it’s an effective and functional device and not a piece of art. Hence, the quality and durability are more important. Things like battery life, it having a stand so you can read it from your lazy chair, but also two little magnets so you can attach it to your barbecue and it won’t fall of the table are nice features.

Verdict

I’m very happy with the Digoo DG FT2203. Firstly, for such a good price you get a very easy to use temperature meter. Besides that it is accurate and stable. And the best of it: you can use it stand alone, but also due the bluetooth 4.0 option with the free app. BBQ without checking temperature is a no go, so this device is a not to have but a needed gadget.
