Hay Justin I watch a lot of your videos what part of Texas do you live in? Would like to meet you sometime.
Thanks for making this video. I decided to get the Mk4 until I saw the Thermapen One is on sale! I'm excited to see that you're posting new videos again. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the integrity of your review. I have the OG Thermapen from 15 years ago and still love it. No reason to upgrade yet.
You sold me! Just ordered mine using your link in Tennessee Orange. Will take a couple weeks longer to get it, but hey, I will be one of the first in the country to have that color. As always, great job Justin!
I just received the notification today about the 1 and you have it already! Great video, thank you for sharing!
Was about to buy a 4 when I stumbled upon this video. Thanks for the review.
Wonderful review Justin! Very informative and funny. Miss ya brother!!!!

Great comparison. I've been using the MK4 for about 2 yrs. Just bought my son the One & Smoke for Xmas for his new off-set, but as you said the adult in me will continue w/the MK4 for myself. UNLESS my boy starts cooking better BBQ than me:)
I don't even remember how I got subscribed to you, but this was a really good review, great job man.
Appreciate the honest review, purchased one using your affiliate link this morning
Getting the mk4 at a discounted close out price seems to be something nobody is talking about. I am considering purchasing a 2nd mk4 as backup or to at some point gift.

I was just thinking about purchasing a insta thermometer since I got a green egg for Father's Day. The KZread algorithm is clairvoyant. Just purchased. Thanks for the thorough review.
Geez, I just got the e-mail from them yesterday and you have one! Lucky you. I love my Mk4 and won’t upgrade. My wife even uses it when she bakes bread. So versatile. For those that want the new one, be a good person and give your old one away. Someone will love you for it.

I really love your channel. Your reviews and presentations are just like your thermo pen you just reviewed. They get better and better. There is such a polish and shine that I am always looking forward to what you say. Thanks for your hard work. Maybe you should buy a bunch of instant read thermometers and test them. Using this pen you just reviewed as the gold standard.
I still have the original Thermapen my wife bought for me in 2014 because I wasn't going to spend the $99. Best money she ever spent. Still going strong and dead nits accurate.
Thanks for the review. using your link!

I have a Thermapen that is at least 10-12 years old. Had to send it in once for a free repair. Now the battery door is broken but a piece of tape and it is still going strong.
Thanks for the video. 👍🏼👏🏼 Love my themapen IR. Won’t buy the new one till I want to gift the older. Then I’ll need a NEW thermaworks. Also Love the Smoke for my long cooks. Thermaworks is AWESOME!!!
Thanks Justin! I’ll stick with my MK4 for now, by the time my bbq is ready to temp, the beers have slowed down my vision where I wouldn’t know the difference. Appreciate the review. Keep up the good work!

Do grilled brisket tacos (the best) 1.) Slice raw brisket thin 2.) Season with season all or lawrys 3.) Grill on high heat (watch for flare up's because of high fat content) 4.) Using a clever chop meat (because of toughness) 5.) Serve on grilled corn tortilla (chopped onion, cilantro, lime, and salsa opcional) Creamy green salsa (most people think it has avocado but its a lie) 1.) Grill 5 jalapenos 2 serranos 2 cloves of garlic and a 1/4 onion 2.) Once charred blend everything together 3.) Crucial step slowly drizzle canola oil while blending to emulsify (if oil seperates stop and remove excess oil and reblend) 4.) Add salt to taste (even though it has a lot of peppers it is not a very spicy salsa. Really creamy in texture)
Good stuff Justin. Very thorough review.👍

Without watching the vid and just by the specs alone I would certainly go for the upgrade. Faster response times and a smaller margin error are always a step in the right direction. Upgrade, UPGRADE EVERYTHING!
Good in-depth review, Justin. I will buy the Thermapen One when and if my Mk4 gives out.

Great review. I'm a long time Thermoworks fan and upgraded to the Mk4 from a Classic a few years after it was released. Undecided if I'll upgrade again but I may gift my Mk4 to a friend or relative if I do (better than "accidentally" dropping it onto a 700 deg F grill). Excellent comparison showing what I will get if I do upgrade. 5 year warrantee is a plus. I had a Thermoworks timer fail after 25 months of modest use, it had a 24 month warrantee.
Thank you for the Great review.
Love my pen don't know how I got buy without it. Works great so I'll keep it. That said if I already didn't have one, I'd buy the new one just because of the long warranty. Thanks Justin. ✌🤟🖖
Awesome review. I never had the MK4 but got the ONE and it is amazing. Hopefully I will have a review up in the next day or two.

If you're going to upgrade your thermapen, get the Thermapen IR, it combines the thermapen Mk4 with a IR gun in one unit, I use mine constantly for everything when I'm cooking.
Such a wonderful review of fantastic product. I have been a Thermapen fan for many years. I have given many as gifts to people that loved them and were so happy with the improvement in their grilling accuracy. It gives novice and even experienced cooks a new sense of confidence on their grills. I couldn't resist getting the new MK4 but I agree that the improvements are nice but really not a reason to discard your old pen. Mine have lasted for at least 8 years. The only one that failed is the one my wife put in the dishwasher. Not covered by warranty. Go buy this tool if you don't have one!!
Hey Justin, this is a good review. Ironically this past Thursday I purchased the MK4 due to it being 30% off LOL. Thanks for the video! Cheers brother!

So first off Justin it's always good to see your vids. Next up,you're timing couldn't be any better. My grandfather started teaching me how to grill when I was 5. That was about 57 years ago. Why do I say this? Because we didn't have instaread thermometers back then so learned the hard way meaning I don't use them for steaks,chicken parts,etc. But dammed if they aren't wonderful for roasts,briskets, turkeys, etc. And I recently decided if I can justify a crazy ass propane flamethrower for lighting my fires ( yes it is the grill gun of witch I speak) I might as well as break down and finally get a thermopen. So thanks to you I'll not mess around and place my order for the new one. Thanks. Now back to the grill gun. I wonder just how fast you can toast a marshmallow ? FIRE 🔥🔥🔥😄👍
Nice review, Justin. I’m gonna check em out.

Thanks Justin for your thorough evaluation of both Termapens but especially for your honesty about the new one versus the old and not playing the drama queen that everyone has to buy one or you're bbq experiences will be ruined for life.
I’m very frugal, but the Thermapen is a luxurious, robust mechanical work of art that is a joy to use and well worth the price. They do go on sale or buy two get one free every once in a while.
Not upgrading, but another great video!
Great review Justin! I think the MK4 is absolutely perfect. With that said I’m still gonna buy the new one 😬 Cheers🍻

Great review! I love Thermoworks products......I have their Thermapop, Smoke, and a Thermapen MK4. I recommend their stuff to all my friends. Snagging a MK4 at close out pricing is a no brainer IMO if you’re in the market for one. I often recommend the Thermapop to folks as well if spending more than $50 on an instant read thermometer is a little rich for their wallet.......it’s a great device for the money and better than the sea of knock off thermapen type devices on the market. It’s virtually as accurate as the MK4 just not as fast or as easy to use
Very nice!!! I dont have one yet but i think I might need one :)
Awesome review Justin! I totally agree that the ThermoWorks Thermapen is the very best investment you can make if your serious about BBQ and want dead on accuracy that you can trust. I will probably end up getting the Thermapen One just because it is the best instant read out there right now!

Great review.....my original thermopen is at least 12 years old....you open the battery compartment with a nickel. It still works flawlessly I did purchase a MK4 while they were on sale. I bought the glow in the dark cover that has magnets for both units......the MK4 won't work with the magnets making the cover useless. Might be something you could review & bring up to the powers that be at thermopen.
LOVE my MK4. If it ever breaks I'll upgrade but I think it will last a long time because it seems to be very well made. I bought my sister their DASH Thermometer and it has worked great. When my cheaper wireless smoking thermometer dies I'll be looking at the SMOKE.

Yeah, totally. It's the "cheapest hammer is the most expensive" theory. The 5 year warranty is a nice change this time around but it's probably a pretty safe bet on their part. They are made so well.
Just ordered the MK4 at a good discount and am very happy….
I can't find any reviews on KZread for the SNS-500 digital thermometer from SlowNSear. Any chance you could check it out?
I will upgrade eventually only because I love the company and my thermapen is the single most used tool I have for cooking, even beyond BBQ. Just getting water temperature right for baking, etc. I’ll wait a bit to make sure there’s no gremlins and they don’t come out with a 1.1 model in short order.
