MEATER Plus Smart Meat Thermometer

The MEATER Plus is a wireless smart meat thermometer originally developed by Apption Labs, a startup founded in Leicester, United Kingdom. The brand gained significant traction through crowdfunding and innovation in the culinary tech space. While the company was founded in the UK and maintains a strong presence there, the manufacturing of the electronic components and the product itself is primarily outsourced to China.

In 2021, the brand's reach expanded significantly when Apption Labs was acquired by Traeger, Inc., a prominent American company known for its wood-fired pellet grills. This acquisition integrated MEATER’s smart technology into the Traeger ecosystem. Today, the brand continues to operate as a leading subsidiary within Traeger's portfolio, maintaining its identity as a pioneer in wireless kitchen technology while benefiting from American corporate oversight and global distribution networks.
