From Breakfast to BBQ — How the 2-in-1 Thermometer Transforms Griddle Cooking
288 Comments
Cooking on a griddle is one of life’s simple joys. From crispy bacon and fluffy scrambled eggs to perfectly seared steaks and homemade pancakes, griddles offer unmatched versatility. But there’s one challenge every griddle enthusiast faces: uneven heat distribution.
A griddle’s surface rarely heats perfectly evenly. That means one side might be hot enough to sear meat while the other is too cool to cook eggs properly. Without precise temperature monitoring, you end up guessing — and guesswork can ruin your cook.
Enter the TP420 Infrared Thermometer. Designed specifically for home chefs and cooking enthusiasts, the TP420 is a dual-function thermometer that solves these challenges. It delivers instant, accurate readings for both surface and internal temperatures, giving you total control over your cooking.
Whether you’re a weekend griddle master or a passionate everyday cook, the TP420 will change the way you cook. Here’s why.
1. Understanding Griddle Temperature Challenges
Griddles are versatile — you can cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner with them. But one thing they all share is temperature inconsistency.
Even the most expensive griddles often have hotspots and cooler zones. This makes cooking tricky, especially when timing and heat precision matter. You can end up with burnt edges and undercooked centers — not the results you want.
The missing ingredient for perfect griddle cooking? Accurate, instant temperature measurement.
2. Why the TP420 Stands Out
The TP420 is a dual-function thermometer built to solve this exact problem. It combines:
- Infrared scanning to check surface temperatures instantly.
- Probe measurement to check internal food temperatures without guesswork.
This means you can measure exactly how hot your griddle is in real time and know precisely when your food is done — whether you’re flipping pancakes or checking a juicy steak.
3. Key Features of the TP420
Here’s why the TP420 is loved by cooking enthusiasts:
- Dual-Function Design: No need to choose between an infrared thermometer and a probe thermometer — the TP420 has both.
- Fast & Accurate Readings: Measures temperatures in just 2–3 seconds with ±1.8°F accuracy, covering a wide range from -58°F to 572°F.
- Safe, Efficient Surface Scanning: Non-contact infrared measurements with a 12:1 distance-to-spot ratio and <500ms response time.
- Versatile Applications: Perfect for griddles, pizza ovens, BBQ grills, frying pans, candy-making, and sous vide.

4. Real Results: How TP420 Transforms Cooking
Griddle cooking is all about control — and the TP420 gives you just that.
Imagine making breakfast with even, perfectly cooked eggs every time. Or grilling burgers with an exact sear without cutting them open. Or preparing pancakes where every spot of the griddle is the ideal temperature.
With the TP420:
- Scan your griddle surface before cooking to find the perfect temperature zones.
- Check internal temperatures to ensure food is perfectly cooked without overcooking.
- Avoid guesswork, reduce mistakes, and save time in the kitchen.
5. Tips for Using TP420 for Griddle Cooking
- Preheat and Scan: Before cooking, use the infrared sensor to check your griddle’s temperature across multiple spots.
- Use the Probe Wisely: For meat, check the internal temperature to guarantee perfect doneness.
- Adjust in Real Time: If certain areas of your griddle are hotter, move food around or adjust burner settings accordingly.
- Clean for Accuracy: Keep the probe clean and store the device properly to maintain accuracy over time.
