MEATER Pro meat thermometer

MEATER Pro is a high-end wireless smart meat thermometer designed by Apption Labs. The product range is recognized for its dual-sensor technology that monitors both internal meat temperature and ambient cooking environments, transmitting data to a mobile application via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.

The brand's roots are in Leicester, United Kingdom, where Apption Labs was founded in 2015 by Joseph Cruz and Teemu Nivala. While the engineering and design concepts originate from the UK, the physical manufacturing of the probes typically takes place in Taiwan to leverage specialized electronic manufacturing expertise.

In July 2021, the brand's growth trajectory shifted significantly when Apption Labs was acquired by Traeger Inc., a leading American manufacturer of wood-pellet grills. Under this ownership, MEATER continues to operate as a standalone brand within the Traeger umbrella, focusing on the intersection of culinary tradition and internet-of-things (IoT) technology.
