Almost all of the food thermometers available today are supposed to be inserted into the food. Food thermometers are classified into two groups which are the digital food thermometer and the dial food thermometer. In digital food thermometers, the thermocouple is the common thermometer used in the kitchen among thermistors, oven cord thermometers, and thermometer fork combination. The dial type food thermometer are made with bimetallic cord which are inserted into the food. Some of these dial type food thermometer are safe to go inside the oven while others offer instant read of temperature after few seconds.

How should a meat thermometer be inserted into a roaster?

Hi there a meat thermometer should be inserted very central .Being central will mean it will be show the temperature inside the food so you would know if it was cooking ok in there or not. be ssur to also insert it upright. Most thermometers have a mark indicating how deep the thermometer should be inserted. If not then insert up to the dial. If you mean a roast by "roaster" than as close to the center of the meat as possible or the thickest part of the meat.

What is the difference between a rectal thermometer and an oral thermometer?

The tastes differ. An oral thermometer has a longer slender end that's inserted (into the mouth), compared to a rectal thermometer that has a short bulbous end inserted (into the rectum). The bulb reduces the chance of tearing the rectal wall, especially in infants. Some digital models have a setting for rectal vs. oral on the unit. The rectal temperature is known to be a little warmer and more accurate to body temperature. If you still have a glass and Mercury thermometer, be aware that mercury is a deadly toxin, and consider replacing the thermometer with a digital model.
