Bullseye Lid Thermometer

[Chris_G]

Following my Weber heritage I was thinking of installing a thermometer in the lid of my Bullseye.
Appears that RT installed the thermometer on earlier models but currently sold out.

Anyone else done this or is it just a bad idea in general??

I have asked this before. I wish my Bullseye had one.

Looks good to me. Just be sure of the stem length you want. I think it would be nice to have another tool to cook with. But it could just add confusion. At least you would have a quick indicator if you had a grease fire.

That was the shortest stem I saw. I didn't want to go to long on length so food like a turkey would get in the way. I have used these thermometer and the price is less.

The issue with lid thermos is your not getting accurate cooking temps. Cooking temps your worried about are at grill level. Secondly those types arent quite accurate to begin with.

But again to each it's own.
