I’ve been using the Govee Bluetooth Meat Thermometer primarily with my smoker, and it has performed very well. It provides a consistent and reliable temperature reading, which is critical when cooking low and slow. To test accuracy, I compared the readings against another trusted thermometer when pulling meat off the smoker. The temperatures matched closely, which gave me confidence that the probe is measuring accurately. I’ve also used it in the oven with equally solid results. The Bluetooth connectivity allows me to monitor temperatures without constantly lifting the lid or opening the oven door, which helps maintain consistent cooking conditions. The app interface is straightforward and easy to read, and setup was simple. Pros: Accurate readings Reliable Bluetooth monitoring Easy setup Works well for smoker and oven use Cons: Bluetooth range can vary depending on walls or distance Overall, this is a dependable thermometer that gives peace of mind when cooking larger cuts of meat. If you regularly smoke or oven-roast meats and want consistent internal temperature monitoring, this is a great tool to have. Read more

Works well, accurate, great price, probes are decent quality. Bluetooth range is good when connected to the app. Would purchase this over any of the other 100 dollar alternatives out there! Read more

I purchased this unit to replace an older dedicated unit that performed flawlessly until I acidentally left it outside in the rain. I often do extended smoking (12-16 hours +) and need a very reliable unit. It's on its maiden voyage and these are my "first impressions". I may update later depending on further use. The good: I like the storage clips that come with the probes. Most don't have this feature and consequently the cords get all tangled up. The unit has a number of options for mounting - magnetic, built in stand and a wire hook. Having tried all 3, I found that using an "S" hook next to my smoker and hanging the monitor on this works the best. The bad: I wish that the wires on the probes were a bit longer. Probe #1 is in the back of the smoker and I use it to monitor the smoker temp. Probes #2 & #3 (current usage) are in a pork butt and some country style ribs. If the cords were just about a foot longer, this would be ideal ... they can reach now, but there isn't any extra length to allow for movement when I will need to wrap the meat. Also the app is very sensitive and drops the connection frequently even though I am only about 20 feet away from the unit at all times. This may be due to other bluetooth signals and/or wifi signals in the area, I'm not sure. It took a bit of time to figure out the app, but that's expected. I'm sure once I get more familiar with the settings, it will be a breeze. Compared to the old (Smart BBQ) one though, it's a lot tougher to figure out. Finally, there is a warning in the instructions that the probe cords should NEVER get wet. Hopefully the occasional rain shower while smoking won't affect the probe cables, but it would be better if they were better insulated. So far I give it 4 stars, if the app would hold the connection better, I would upgrade it to 5. Read more

Worked great for the price. So much cheaper than wireless probes. It seemed to be accurate in that it matched the exact temperature of my instant-read thermometer. Only thing that was kind of weird/unexpected is that it requires the app to use. It does not function as a standalone device. I had originally thought that the app would just be a feature for monitoring remotely, but I probably didn't read through the description thoroughly. Read more

I didn’t want to spend a fortune on a thermometer but wanted a good quality one. Fortunately, my brother-in-law had one and recommended this. It is just what we needed and works well. Read more

12/26/25 Updated: Govee's customer service is excellent. They quickly contacted me to offer a full refund. This is good customer service and I greatly appreciate it. I upgraded the rating based solely upon customer service. I cannot give this a low enough rating to express my thoughts about the product. I tested the thermometer at room temperature. Both probes worked and it was off by only a couple of degrees. The meal I was going to use it for got postponed and I forgot to use it in another meal. When I did finally get around to using it there was nothing but problems. After placing it in the oven, 1/2 hour into cooking one of the probes quit working. So I moved the 2nd probe to the more critical region of the turkey. I set a warning for 150DegF. My wife said she needed to use the oven so I thought I would finish the turkey in my smoker. When I pulled the turkey out of the oven it looked quite well cooked. I put a regular thermometer in the turkey. While the Govee probe said 145DegF, my thermometer read 180DegF. When I pulled the turkey out of the pan to stop the cooking and made a cut in the breast it was very obvious the white meat was over cooked, dry and tough. Unfortunately the 30 day window has expired, so I cannot return this item. Read more
