[allen42]

what do yall use ? i bought one , the kind you stink in meat ,,,, you have to look stright down to see it & the still is around 6' tall !!! i have read about the digitil ones , but my wife already is thinking i am wasting money on summin that is gonna get me thrown in jail !! lmao another 30-40 bucks & she might turn my a@@ in !! , any ideas? besides standing on a step ladder to see it ?

also , after i drill a hole for the shaft of the thermometer to fit in , what is that rubber piece called & where do you get them from ?

thanks so much yall !!
