ABSTRACT:
A cooking tool is disclosed which is a combination of a spatula for handling food and a boom-mounted probe having an indicator for checking temperature or doneness attained during cooking. The disclosure includes both a home and a fast-food restaurant embodiment of the tool. In both embodiments, the tool has a probe for measuring temperature mounted on a manually retractable boom, which probe is extendable over various sites of the food being checked. The boom is pivotally attached to the elongated arm of a spatula and by a scissor-like action is raised out of and lowered into the food. In the home model, the tool is provided with a temperature indicator in the form of a digital readout. In the fast-food restaurant model, the indicator provided is a GO/NO GO gauge and the probe and indicator fit in a quick-disconnect receptacle. In the latter model, a different gauge, when required for a specific application, may be substituted. Both units are designed for one-hand operation and have a manually controlled boom.
