Would this be ideal to check the temp of a bbq or smoker?

Yes. Pretty interesting to use for heat distribution with a fan/ ceiling fans near a fireplace too.

Yes, this would be able to check the temp of a BBQ or smoker. I have had one for a few months now and it has worked great so far. No problems or issues.

No it's a single probe and measures one thing at a time. It will measure smoker or oven temp if it's not in the meat and you make sure the probe tip isn't touching anything.

The gauge is off so I use a electronic gauge that has a remote one I can keep in the house and keep track of the temp. I really like the smoker it does a good job.

they both work well. I use mine to read the temp of my automobile components (exhaust hedders, water, etc) If you need a device that is incredibly accurate, youre looking at the wrong thing,however, if you just want to know the temp of an object, the cheapest one will do the job.

You may want to check the temperature range of this unit and see if the probe can take the temperature of your smoker. If the range is within your specs and you are able to use the output to manipulate your smoker to increase or decrease the heat, sure why not.

it should work great for that . I use it on my off set smoke and it does the job.

I keep it on grill for continuous use in determining the correct temps. when I'm smoking meats.

No; this is meant for meat temps only if you want one that does the air and meat. I use the Maverick M Remote Smoker Thermometer [ET-73]. I've used it for 2 1/2 years now. It does air temp and meat temp. It has temp probes with wires so that the digital reader stays out of the pit. Amazon sells it or you can go to www.amazingribs.com and see reviews for several different devices.

The answer is NO. This is to be used to observe or read temperature in short term where the dial (working parts) are NOT exposed to DIRECT HEAT as in the internal temp of chicken, candy or other like cases as in checking the internal temp of grilled beef, pork etc.

Only if you want to drill a hole in the side of your oven. This is specifically made for a smoker/bbq. You can get an oven thermometer that is made for regular ovens at almost any hardware store for $5 to $10 dollars (every so often you even can find them at a grocery store).

I use it to fine tune the flame on a 35,000 BTU low pressure burner. This is a nice needle valve regulator with a very wide range, with fine tuning capabilities. It will work well for fine tuning smoker temperature. Just keep in mind that it is capable of dumping WAY too much gas to your unit if you open it up all the way.

My silicone coated needle probe did not last on the BBQ, so I would not use any probe for anything on the BBQ apart from taking a quick temperature reading. Here's my review of the probe: http://www.amazon.com/ThermoWorks-Pro-Series-Needle-Probe-ChefAlarm/product-reviews/B00EZBB8AQ/ref=cm_cr_pr_top_recent?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints;=0&sortBy;=bySubmissionDateDescending

Absolutely, I have two and use one to monitor the smoker's temp and the other in the meat.

This thermometer ranges from -58 to 572 F it should work,but I would be weary careful if you use it for that purpose.Frying oils are extremely hot,it can cause second degree burns instantly.

I use it to monitor the temp and check if there is water in a room that is unheated - I have seen it down as low as 25 degrees. It works well.

Yes. I bought this and 100-300 degree thermometer to upgrade my masterbuilt smoker. Works better than new. The cord comes out of the opposite side of this unit, fyi.
