Temperature Meat Probe with Grate Clip - Pack of 2

Key Features

  • Precision Thermal Sensing: High-accuracy thermistor provides real-time internal temperature monitoring, ensuring your brisket, ribs, or poultry are cooked to the exact target temperature.
  • High-Heat Braided Lead: Features a durable, stainless steel braided cable designed to withstand the high ambient temperatures inside a wood pellet grill without melting or fraying.
  • Universal Grate Clip: Includes a stainless steel "A-frame" clip that holds the probe securely at grate level, allowing for accurate ambient temperature monitoring away from the main meat.
  • Water-Resistant Seal: The probe-to-wire junction is reinforced to resist moisture during cleaning, though full submersion is not recommended.
  • Plug-and-Play Compatibility: Features a standard 3.5mm audio-style jack for a direct, secure connection to the Recteq control board.

Compatibility & Fitment

This probe kit is specifically designed for the specialized control boards found in Recteq (formerly Rec Tec) grills. Key compatible models include:

  • RT-B380 Bullseye: Specifically designed for the high-heat searing capabilities of the Bullseye.
  • Stampede & Trailblazer: RT-590 and RT-340 models.
  • The Bull: RT-700 flagship wood pellet grill.
  • Other Models: Compatible with RT-1250, RT-2500 BFG, and any Recteq controller equipped with 3.5mm probe ports.

When to Replace

  • Inaccurate Readings: The probe shows "LLLL" or "HHHH" error codes, or the temperature jumps erratically by 50°F or more.
  • No Reading: The grill controller does not register that a probe is plugged in (often displays "---").
  • Kinked or Burnt Wires: The braided wire has been pinched in the grill lid or has come into direct contact with the fire pot/deflector plate.
  • Moisture Failure: The probe was accidentally submerged in water or left out in the rain, causing the internal resistor to short-circuit.

Installation Tips

  • Avoid Direct Flame: Even though the lead is stainless steel, direct contact with the flames of the Bullseye in "Riot Mode" can damage the internal sensor. Ensure the wire is routed away from the fire pot.
  • Cleaning: Use a damp soapy cloth to wipe down the stainless steel probe tip. Avoid getting water into the braided section or the jack.
  • Routing: Use the dedicated probe port hole on the side of your Recteq hopper or grill body. Do not pinch the wire between the heavy lid and the grill frame, as this is the #1 cause of probe failure.
  • The Clip: Place the ambient clip near the food, but not touching it, to get the most accurate reading of the air temperature circulating around your meat.
  • Calibration Check: Periodically test your probe in a glass of ice water; it should read close to 32°F (0°C) to ensure your long-haul smokes remain accurate.

FAQ

This replacement set is designed for Rec Tec / recteq wood pellet grills that utilize this style of meat temperature probe and probe holder clip, including the RT-B380 Bullseye, RT-590, and RT-700 models.
Each pack contains 2 replacement temperature meat probes and thermometer probe holder clips. These are designed to replace worn, damaged, or unreliable food probes used for monitoring internal meat temperatures during cooking.
Common signs include inaccurate food temperature readings, probe temperatures that fluctuate during cooking, frequent error messages related to the probe, slow response times, or visible damage such as a frayed cable, kinked lead, or heat-damaged probe tip.
No. A meat probe is specifically used to measure the internal temperature of food during cooking. It is distinct from the grill's internal cabinet or cooking chamber temperature sensor, which is used by the controller to regulate the grill's ambient temperature.
Replacement is a straightforward process. Simply unplug the old probe from the controller's probe jack, remove the existing holder clip, and install the new components in the same location. No advanced repair skills are required, and the installation typically takes only a few minutes.
Before replacing the probe, inspect the cable for cuts, melted insulation, or crushed sections. Ensure the probe jack is clean and fully connected, and verify that grease buildup or moisture is not interfering with the reading. If the cable has been pinched by the lid or exposed to excessive direct flame, replacement is the recommended solution.
The most common causes of failure include repeated exposure to high heat, grease contamination, moisture intrusion, cable damage from pinching or bending, and general wear from frequent cleaning or handling. Routing the cable away from direct flames and avoiding sharp bends will help extend the life of your probes.
