Holy meatballs: This MEATER Block WiFi meat thermometer deal is fire

MEATER Block WiFi smart thermometer prime day deal on grill shelf
MEATER

Grilling is an art form. Every protein you prep and cook requires a different approach. So, it’s easy to understand why a guided cooking system might come in handy. That is what the MEATER Block 4-probe WiFi smart meat thermometer offers. It’s a wireless-enabled set of probes to help you monitor the internal meat temperature and ambient temperature while cooking. You can also take advantage of a built-in step-by-step guided cooking system using custom alerts and notifications that help you get the perfect grill, roast, or sear every time. It syncs with your phone and an app but get this: you don’t need your phone if you don’t want to use it, thanks to a standalone mode. For Prime Day, the MEATER Block is 33% off — instead of $300, you pay $200. Yes, please. It’s a fantastic offer to go along with the Prime Day Pit Boss deals if you’re planning to grab a grill today.

What can the MEATER Block do for your cooks

It’s an excellent grilling companion, but you can also use the MEATER Block in the kitchen, oven, smoker, rotisserie, and more. The probes are dishwasher-safe, too, so you can easily clean them when you’re all done. Moreover, there are several ways to configure, connect, and review stats. With a MEATER Cloud account, you can keep an eye on your temps while on the go, from your phone, Apple Watch, via Amazon Alexa or even a web browser. That will be great when you’re doing long smokes and need to maintain optimal temperatures.

The block acts as a hub and has a built-in WiFi repeater to extend the range of your home network. This is mainly to ensure that the WiFi can reach your probes. It also has an integrated OLED, so you can use the block to monitor temps and check alerts instead of your phone if you’re tired of everything being so smart and connected these days.

Four separate probes, each with dual temperature sensors, are included. You can use them to monitor one big slab of meat or individual cuts, whatever you prefer. An advanced “estimator algorithm” takes a lot of the guesswork out of cooking, giving you ideal cooking and resting times for your food. Meanwhile, the guided cooking system we discussed ensures you get everything just right so you can wow your guests or your family.

Usually, the MEATER Block is $300, but for Prime Day, it’s down to $200, saving you about $100. That’s a great deal, and you can use that money you saved to get some fresh meat and test it all out.

Ninja is a big name in the small appliance world, and while you may think of it when it comes to air fryers, it also makes fantastic coffee with the Ninja Espresso & Coffee Barista System.

Stay hydrated with these Liquid IV Prime Day deals
Liquid IV in bottle outdoors while playing tennis - Prime Day deal

Admittedly, I'm not a fitness and health expert, but I do know that you need to stay hydrated -- that's pretty straightforward. You can't drink sports beverages or juice in the same way you can drink water, especially if you're outdoors in the heat, sweating, and staying active. Your best bet is good old-fashioned H20, but that's not exciting at all. Allow me to suggest an alternative: Spiking your water with Liquid IV, a "hydration multiplier" filled with electrolytes, vitamins, and nutrients, but no sugar. Conveniently, Liquid IV is also on sale for Prime Day, with a bunch of great deals on various flavors like Lemon Lime, White Peach, Raspberry Melon, and more. You can save up to 30% off select packets, but only for today.

 
What is Liquid IV and why shop these Prime Day deals?
I drink a lot of water, but I also like sweetening it up with a little flavor. Sure, you can add fresh lemon and squeezed fruits, but they don't seem to enhance the flavor enough for my tastebuds. On that same note, I don't like things to be too sweet, either. Getting that just-right sweetness is challenging. For me, Liquid IV does that, getting the flavor just right.
