Get a Tel-Tru I have used them for years and they can be calibrated.

Here is the one you want and it can be used for cooking meat and checking water temps.

Helpful hint.
To test the accuracy of a thermometer get a class fuul of ice and water stir it up and put the thermometer in it.
It should read 32 degrees F or 0 degrees C.

I use mine to cook meat like a pork roast.
When the temp of the center reaches 145 I pull the roast out.
It will then go up to about 150 degrees, the NEW safe temp for pork which I have been cooking it for years anyway.

Thermometers are so exciting and useful all around the house.
