Tel-Tru Thermometers

Tel-Tru thermometers feature 3″ glowing dials with 1/2″ NPT stems and ±1°F accuracy from 100-600°F, mounted directly through smoker walls for Shorty’s BBQ real-time firebox and cook chamber monitoring. Heavy-duty stainless construction handles Florida humidity while bi-metal coils respond instantly to temp swings.

This setup tracks 225-275°F target zones essential for Shorty’s 72-year rib recipe, preventing dry brisket or undercooked chicken during 10-hour shifts. Dual-probe systems cover firebox (400°F max) and meat internal (145-205°F), with glow-in-dark faces visible during night catering.
