Abstract

A thermal timing device formed by a meat thermometer provided with a removable heat insulating shroud or jacket. The meat thermometer may be used in the usual fashion without the jacket to indicate the extent to which meat is roasted. With the jacket in place on the thermometer, the timing device may then be used for controlling other cooking processes such as broiling, baking, deep fat frying, and boiling.
