Is this safe to use on the grill?

No, direct flame to it would crack the terracotta. Be careful too - I've tried to "bake" on a grill with terracotta before and it didn't just crack, there was something moist in it (a chicken) and it exploded all over the place.

Most likely these would crack/break on a charcoal grill with less ability to control temperature. Maybe on a gas grill since there is more ability to control the heat level, but I would not know about using on a gas grill. Make sure to follow the pre-moisten step prior to use. That is probably why my first one cracked in the oven, the entire baker went in dry and ended up in pieces on the pan on the lower rack.

I'm not sure, but I doubt it. It would probably crack. Maybe heavy duty tin foil would work. Good luck

I personally would not. I doubt you would get the results you expect. It is great in the oven. There isn't anything in the instructions about grilling or not. My experience is just from using it in the oven. Elsie Keith

No, I have only used it on the grill, and I didn't think it worked as well as the previous one I had.

I use it on the outside barbecue grill. I clean it after every use and store it inside, however. Our grill is about 20 feet from the storage spot in the kitchen. I store it with the cover on so it doesn't get banged around in the drawer.

No the grill gets too hot. This had a short life for the oven, you should buy a different thermometer.

i have never used it on the grill. i think an instant read thermometer might be better. i would be hesitant to use this great oven thermometer that way. hopes this helps

I personally would never place any plastic or acrylic item on a grill. Its going to melt, stink and be toxic.

It does work on the grill, however you have to be careful the cord or probe does not come in contact with the grill surface. I have accidentally allowed the cord, that was next to the metal probe, to drop on the hot grate and it burned the wire and became inoperable. I would recommend it not be in the food while cooking, with the grill cover closed, since this kind of accident can happen. If you do be very careful with the placement of the probe and cord in relation to the hot grate.

I have used it in the oven and on the grill extensively. I have no concerns.

I've never used it on grill grates but I'd be willing to bet it would work pretty well. I've cleaned a number of pots and pans with it that nothing else seems to touch.

As long as it doesn't have direct contact with your food, or an open flame, you should be fine. I think that high up from the actual burners are okay, but would advise against spraying the actual grates of your grill.

I would doubt it but not sure. I bought it for my niece and she uses it on gas grill.

It is great for cooking with on grill. It retains heat well. Cleaning is an issue tho

It is as safe as any gas grill in this regard. Yes, the element gets dripped on and will cause a grease fire, but that's part of the appeal of the grill. You get all the advantages of an open flame grill and an IR grill all in one. Like any grill, keep a fire extinguisher handy and keep the grill away from flammables.

I don't recommend the use of steel wool of any grade on the heating element of an electric grill. The danger is that tiny bits of steel wool could be left on the element that could potentially spark and cause a fire. I use and highly recommend a nylon-based scrubber like Scotch Brite or a microfiber-based scrubber. Use it while the grill is still warm but not so hot as to burn yourself. Regular use after grilling will prevent buildup on the element.

I have never used it in the grill, only the smoker. But, we love the product and it is the only thing we use. Sorry I can not be of more help.

I have not used it on a grill, have used it in my smoker and my oven. Not sure how it would handle flame-ups. Instructions say not to expose to flame, perhaps you could protect it with some aluminum foil while grilling?
