Meat Thermometer
basically, a Bimetallic Stemmed thermometer is a thermometer that is used when cooking meats- like turkey (well turkey is poultry, but that is not the point) . They have a long stem that you poke into the meat and there is a dial on the top that tells you how hot the inside of the meat is.
The meat thermometer probe can be inserted into the thickest part of the meat like the thigh or breast.
The inside meat temp should be about 160 to 180 degrees.
