Most grillers grab their tongs and their thermometer separately — then spend the next ten minutes trying to remember where they set the probe down. TempTong ends that.
TempTong is an all-in-one BBQ grilling tool that combines heavy-duty culinary-grade stainless steel tongs with a built-in digital thermometer and retractable probe — so you flip, grip, and temp in one motion, with one tool. It took home Best New Product in the BBQ category at the Hearth, Patio & BBQ Expo in New Orleans, and it earned that recognition the honest way: by solving a real problem that every backyard cook has.
The retractable probe keeps you a safe distance from the heat while still reaching the center of whatever you're cooking — where the only temperature reading that actually matters is. A backlit digital display reads clearly in full sun or night cooks, and a built-in meat temperature guide is stamped right on the tong arm so you're never guessing whether your chicken is done.
TempTong works across the full spectrum of backyard cooking — whether you're managing a charcoal kettle, working a gas grill, or running multiple proteins on a pellet smoker. It handles everything from searing steaks to checking a whole bird. Pair it with a quality [instant-read thermometer] for double-checking thicker cuts, or grab it as a standalone workhorse when you want to keep things simple.
This is one of those tools that becomes so natural to use that cooking without it feels like a step backward.
