helps prevent microbes from growing on the surface.
The display features extra big digits and can be backlit
for low light conditions.
The TCT572 offers Minimum and Maximum modes.

interference, briey turn off the induction cook top to get a digital
thermometer reading or use a dial thermometer.
Tip: Meat should be allowed to “rest” for 10 to 15 minutes after
it is removed from oven. This allows time for the meat’s internal
temperature to stabilize and the juices to redistribute. This will
result in a roast that is both juicier and easier to carve.
