Grate probe clip alternatives?

levi27123 · Mar 21, 2015

I lost mine I was trying to see what else can I use I had just put my through a potato but I do know if that's proper reading

Crumbled up ball of aluminum foil.

You could drill a hole in a block of wood and slide the probe through it.

I just let mine hang through the top shelf/grate.

You go get some clips from Radio Shack and crimp your lead to them, then clip to the grate where your food is.

A small potato. Stick the probe through it and set it on the grate. When you're done cooking you can throw it at an annoying neighbor :-D

What Ron L said. Works great. And if the neighbor is really annoying, use a bigger potato.:biggrin1:

I broke my alligator clip pit probe a while ago.
I just balled up some foil around a regular meat probe and that worked.
I've also just let it hang between the grates and that works fine too.

Lol. I use either the grate clip that comes with the maverick or alligator clip with the guru. You can find the maverick clip on ebay. I've also heard of using a wine cork.

I've used one of those black document binder clips you have to have something on which you can clip it.

If I had to replace mine, I'd order one of these:

I've got one of those and they are really nice and easy to work with.

Look at the thermo sites. I have seen replacement clips on there. They are the same as the clips for turkey fryers.
