Works very well when cooking on a gass grill with indirect heat, but overheats the probe when cooking steaks on direct heat Keeps saying "flair up"
Response from traegergrills.comBy Traeger Grills, Traeger, July 18, 2025
Thank you for your feedback. Based on your experience, it sounds like the probe is being exposed to temperatures beyond its intended range when used over direct flame. MEATER probes are designed for indirect heat environments where the ambient temperature is more stable. Using them over direct high heat or open flame, especially during flare-ups, can trigger overheating alerts or damage the probe over time.
For optimal results, we recommend placing the probe in areas of the grill where it’s protected from direct exposure to flame, such as using a two-zone cooking setup or placing a barrier between the flame and the meat. This helps maintain accurate readings and prolongs the life of the probe.
If you'd like help optimizing your setup or have any other questions, feel free to contact us at 1-800-TRAEGER. Our team is happy to assist by phone or chat.

Is it really this easy…?

I had no clue the MEATER PRO DUO was going to be so easy to use. We literally use this bad boy on our Woodridge Pro, the oven, the deep fryer and in the Air-Fryer! This is a major game changer in our household. Perfect Tri-tip every time! A phenomenal meatloaf! Did you know the perfect baked potato has an internal temp of 204 degrees??? The MEATER PRO Duo made sure of it! This thing charges in like 30 minutes and last 24 hours and dishwasher safe! WIN!
I would recommend this to a friend!

For grilling I luv those probes. Before I would just go back and forth to see if I burned the meat. These probes are going to make my life just great. These probes make grilling now very detailed. Everything I cook now comes out perfect. All my friends think I'm becoming a great pit master and they luv the Bbq food I cook. Doing all of this on wifi apps is just wonderful. Now I have more time to watch nascar racing. Thank you Meater.

Good Things Come in Duo

I have been waiting to buy another MEATER, and was super excited to get the DUO. Having the ability to be dishwasher safe, and use up to 1000* was extremely appealing. I can use it with all of my cooks; regardless of where or what I am cooking. I prefer this battery as it can be charged vs replaced! One star less due to connectivity distance but extremely happy with it! Perfect gift idea for the chef in your life!

Best cooking tool ever!

This has been one of the best cooking tools I've owned. I've been experimenting with more challenging cooks because I can trust the MEATER will help guide me to perfect results. I love how it incorporates carry over cook, I never thought about that until I used the MEATER and now my food is the exact temp I want it at and now over cooked like it used to be. WiFi was easy to connect and its been very reliable for the several cooks I've used it for. Zero issues with range and the battery life has been remarkable. 10 out of 10, I'd recommend!

I use my MEATER Pro Duo with almost every cook. I own 4 other MEATER Pros, but I love this Pro Duo. Takes all the guess work out of any cook. Super accurate, easy to use, easy to clean, and so versatile. From the Traeger to the sous vide, I can always count on my MEATER Pro Duo.

BEST MEAT THERMOMETER EVER!!!

I've had this Meater Pro Duo for a little over a month now, and I do believe that it is the BEST Wireless Meat Thermometer on the Market! I have smoked everything from Brisket and Pork Butts, even used it for steaks and burgers. The great thing about them, is the versatility, I even used them in the fryer! Its so ACCURATE and EASY TO USE! When connected to Wi-Fi, it has Unlimited range and I can be at the store and still be able to keep track of everything. I'm so happy to have such a versatile tool to use when I'm cooking and would recommend it to anyone looking for a way to ELEVATE their cooking!
