Even if your team didn’t make it to Super Bowl LIX, there’s no better excuse to fire up the grill, turn on the oven, and gather some friends for a game-day feast. Great food is as much a part of the Super Bowl as the halftime show and the commercials, and the right tools can make all the difference. ThermoWorks has a lineup of kitchen essentials that can help take the guesswork out of cooking, including the Square DOT thermometer and the High Temp Silicone Trivets. Whether you’re monitoring a brisket in the smoker or setting down a piping-hot casserole, these products make game-day cooking easier and more precise.
ThermoWorks Square DOT
If you’ve ever pulled a roast from the oven only to find it’s either undercooked or dry as leather, you know how unpredictable cooking temperatures can be. Ovens, grills, and smokers don’t always stay at the temperature they’re set to, which can throw off your timing and ruin a meal. That’s where the ThermoWorks Square DOT comes in. This compact, rugged thermometer has two channels, letting you keep an eye on both your food and the ambient temperature at the same time.
One of its standout features is Average Mode, which calculates a 15-minute running average of your oven or grill’s temperature. This lets you see how much your cooking environment fluctuates, helping you make real-time adjustments to get better, more consistent results. If you’ve ever had an oven that runs hotter or cooler than its setting, you’ll never want to cook without this feature again.
Setting up the Square DOT is simple. Just use the up and down buttons to set high-temperature alarms for each channel, so you’ll know exactly when your food is done. It comes with a Pro-Series penetration probe for checking internal food temperatures and a Pro-Series air probe to measure the ambient temperature inside your oven or grill. The probes have cables that can handle up to 700°F, so there’s no need to worry about melting them under high heat.
The Square DOT is built to last, with a backlit display, splash-proof seals, and a durable plastic frame. It even includes a fold-out stand and a magnetic back, so you can position it wherever it’s most convenient.
The ThermoWorks Square DOT is regularly priced at $69 but is currently on sale for $41.40.
ThermoWorks Silicone Trivets
Once your food is perfectly cooked, the last thing you want to do is scramble for a safe spot to set down a hot pan. ThermoWorks’ High Temp Silicone Trivets are designed to handle the heat, protecting your counters and tables while also doubling as grip pads for handling hot dishes.
These trivets are heat-resistant up to 600°F, making them ideal for anything fresh from the oven or off the grill. The non-slip silicone material ensures a secure grip when you’re lifting heavy cookware, even if your hands are wet. When it’s time to clean up, just rinse them off or toss them in the dishwasher.
The Round Silicone Hotpad/Trivets come in two sizes, and there is a larger 9″ by 12″ rectangular design, perfect for bigger dishes like casseroles and sheet pans. With ten color options, you can match them to your other ThermoWorks gear—or just pick your favorite.
Right now, these trivets are on sale at 60% off, with the round trivets starting at their sale price of just $3.58 and the rectangular version available for the sale price of $7.18.
