I have an older version of this Taylor that I like:

 

 71hb36OaG0L._SL1300_.jpg

It's got a pretty good thermocouple, and a fair-to-middling IR thermometer. I didn't have an IR gun thermometer at the time so this seemed like a good idea. Now I rarely use the IR feature. But I love that it's water resistant. I just wash it like a utensil and put it away.

 

I don't have one of these, but want one: 

Smoke_generic-01.jpg?resizeid=6&resizeh=

Not so much for the remote feature, but the dual probes. They sell other probes (the included 2nd probe is for measuring oven or bbq pit temp. I'd want a second food probe). 

 

I've shopped for scientific and technical dual probe thermometers; the Thermoworks version looks like a bargain ... possibly because it uses thermistors instead of thermocouples. It's also splash-proof. Anyone used this?

Not so much for the remote feature, but the dual probes. It uses standard ones, so you can get other types of probe to work with it (the included 2nd probe is for measuring oven or bbq pit temp. I'd want a second food probe).
