MEATER Plus vs MEATER Pro
Which MEATER is right for your cooking?
Both MEATER products solve the same core problem (taking the guesswork out of cooking) at different tiers. The Pro is the upgrade for specific use cases that benefit from premium features. The Plus is excellent for most standard BBQ cooks. Here is the honest comparison:
MEATER Plus
$199 AUD : The bestseller
- 2 sensors (1 meat + 1 ambient)
- Max ambient 275°C, max internal 100°C
- Bluetooth 4.0, 50m range via booster
- Real wood charger
- Best for: standard low-and-slow BBQ (brisket, pulled pork, ribs, roasts) under 275°C
MEATER Pro
$249 AUD : This product
- 6 sensors (5 meat + 1 ambient) for edge-to-edge precision
- Max ambient 550°C, max internal 105°C
- Bluetooth 5.2 Long Range, 75m range + WiFi cloud (unlimited)
- Sustainable bamboo charger
- Best for: high-heat searing, open flame, pizza ovens, thick-cut precision, remote WiFi monitoring
Smart Temp Multisensor Technology
Five internal sensors. One ambient sensor. Edge-to-edge precision.
The MEATER Pro probe contains six independent temperature sensors arranged along its length. Five sensors monitor the meat's internal temperature at different depths and positions, while a sixth sensor on the exposed end measures the cooker's ambient temperature. This is the technical foundation of the Pro's accuracy advantage.
5
Internal Meat Sensors
Distributed along the probe shaft for edge-to-edge temperature tracking. Detects the coldest spot in the meat.
1
Ambient Cooker Sensor
Tracks cooker temperature in real time. Lets you adjust on the fly without lid-opening.
±0.3°C
Sensor Accuracy
Precision tolerance matching commercial-grade probes. The most accurate MEATER probe.
Universal Cooker Compatibility
Works with every cooker, including high-heat applications.
The 550°C ambient limit unlocks cooker types that the MEATER Plus cannot handle: pizza ovens, open-flame grilling, hot-sear stages of reverse-seared steaks, and deep frying. The Pro maintains full compatibility with all standard BBQ cooker types while adding high-heat capability:
Kamado Grill
Pellet Grill
Gas Grill
Offset Smoker
Kettle Grill
Open Flame
Pizza Oven
Rotisserie
Oven
Induction
Griddle
Sous Vide
5+1 Multisensor Probe
Five internal sensors distributed along the probe shaft plus one ambient sensor. Detects the coldest point in the meat, ensuring nothing is left undercooked on thick or irregular cuts.
550°C High-Heat Capable
Double the ambient temperature limit of the MEATER Plus (275°C). Suitable for hot-searing reverse-seared steaks, pizza-oven cooks, open-flame grilling and deep frying applications.
Bluetooth 5.2 + WiFi Cloud
Latest Bluetooth 5.2 Coded PHY Long Range delivers 75m line-of-sight via the bamboo booster charger. WiFi MEATER Link cloud connectivity unlocks unlimited remote monitoring.
Fast Charging Probe
5 minutes of charging delivers 2 hours of cooking. A full 30-minute charge delivers 24+ hours of continuous cook time. Perfect for impromptu BBQs where the probe was not pre-charged.
When the Pro is the Right Choice
The Pro earns its $50 premium on specific cooks.
MEATER Plus is the bestseller for good reason: for the majority of home BBQ cooks doing brisket, pulled pork, smoked ribs, and slow roasts under 275°C, the Plus is more than capable. The Pro becomes the right choice when your cooking pushes into territory the Plus cannot handle.
The 550°C ambient limit opens up genuine new cook types. Reverse-seared steaks where the sear stage runs at 400-500°C grill temperatures: Plus cannot monitor, Pro can. Pizza-oven cooks at 400-450°C: Plus cannot, Pro can. Open-flame grilling and asado-style cooks over live fire: Plus cannot reliably monitor, Pro can. For BBQ Republic customers running a Big Green Egg with a high-heat sear stage, or anyone with a pizza oven attachment, the Pro is the only MEATER option that works across the full cook range.
The 5+1 multisensor design is the second major upgrade. On thin cuts (steaks, chops, fillets) the Plus's single sensor is fine. On thick cuts (full-packer brisket, pork shoulder, leg of lamb, large prime ribs) the Pro's five internal sensors track temperature across the entire meat depth. The probe automatically reports the lowest temperature reading, ensuring that no part of the meat is undercooked even when the average appears done. For competition-grade brisket and serious whole-protein cooks, this precision genuinely matters.
The WiFi cloud connectivity is the third upgrade most cooks will appreciate. Plus tops out at 50m Bluetooth range from the booster. Pro extends that to 75m line-of-sight Bluetooth, plus optional WiFi MEATER Link which broadcasts cook progress to your phone from anywhere in the world via internet. For overnight brisket cooks where you need to leave the house but still monitor temperature, this is the difference between cooking confidently and cooking blind.
Getting Started
How MEATER Pro works in three steps.
From unboxing to first cook in approximately 10 minutes:

Frequently asked questions
MEATER Pro vs MEATER Plus: which should I choose?
Honest answer: most home BBQ cooks should choose the MEATER Plus ($199). The Plus handles standard low-and-slow BBQ (brisket, pulled pork, ribs, roasts) under 275°C beautifully and is the global bestseller in the wireless smart thermometer category for good reason. The MEATER Pro ($249) is the right choice for THREE specific use cases: 1) high-heat cooks above 275°C (hot searing, pizza ovens, open flame), 2) thick-cut cooks where 5-sensor multisensor accuracy genuinely matters (competition brisket, large roasts), 3) remote monitoring needs (overnight cooks, away-from-home monitoring via WiFi MEATER Link). If none of those use cases apply to your cooking, the Plus is the smart choice.
What is Smart Temp Multisensor Technology?
Smart Temp Multisensor is MEATER's name for the Pro's 6-sensor probe design: 5 internal meat sensors distributed along the probe shaft plus 1 ambient cooker sensor. Traditional single-sensor probes (including the MEATER Plus) report the temperature at one point in the meat. The Pro's 5-sensor design reports temperatures across the entire probe length, which means the app can identify the coldest spot in the meat and report that as the safety-critical internal temperature. This matters most on thick cuts (full-packer brisket, large prime rib, leg of lamb) where the centre of the meat warms more slowly than the edges. The cook is genuinely done when the coldest sensor hits target, not the average.
Can I use MEATER Pro in a pizza oven?
Yes. The Pro's 550°C ambient temperature limit comfortably handles most domestic pizza ovens which operate at 400-450°C. This is one of the key Pro-only use cases: the MEATER Plus tops out at 275°C ambient and cannot safely operate in pizza-oven conditions. Use the Pro to monitor protein cooks in your pizza oven (lamb, chicken, fish) or to verify oven floor temperature consistency. Note: do not exceed the 550°C ceiling: this is the safety limit for the probe construction.
What is WiFi MEATER Link?
WiFi MEATER Link is the Pro's cloud-monitoring feature. With Link enabled, the cook data broadcasts from the probe to your phone via Bluetooth, then from your phone to MEATER's cloud servers, then from the cloud to any other device with the MEATER app and internet connection. The practical implication: you can monitor an overnight brisket cook from your bedroom, from a hotel room, from another city. The cook stays visible regardless of distance from the cooker. Setup requires home WiFi at the cook location and a second device (phone, tablet, computer) to monitor remotely. This feature is Pro-only: the Plus uses Bluetooth-only monitoring with a 50m maximum range.
How accurate is the Pro probe?
±0.3°C accuracy: commercial-grade tolerance for food temperature measurement. For comparison, this is more accurate than most kitchen ovens (typically ±5-10°C tolerance) and equals or exceeds professional kitchen probe accuracy standards. The implication: when the app says the brisket is at 95.5°C internal, you can trust that the actual temperature is within 0.3°C of that reading. For competition BBQ, food safety verification, and serious culinary applications, this precision genuinely matters.
How does the fast charging work?
The Pro probe charges much faster than the MEATER Plus. 5 minutes of charging delivers approximately 2 hours of cooking time. A full 30-minute charge delivers 24+ hours of continuous cook time. The bamboo charger uses 1 AAA battery (included) which provides approximately 2 years of typical use (based on one steak cook per week). For impromptu cooks where the probe was not pre-charged, plug it in for 5 minutes while you prep the meat and you have enough charge for a typical steak or chicken cook.
Is the MEATER Pro dishwasher safe?
The probe itself is constructed from stainless steel with a zirconia ceramic band and is water resistant. Refer to MEATER's official guidance for current dishwasher safety status (the Plus probe is officially dishwasher safe; check MEATER's documentation for the Pro probe specifically). The bamboo booster charger is NOT dishwasher safe (contains electronics): clean with a damp cloth only. We can confirm current dishwasher safety guidance in-store at the BBQ Republic showroom.
What does the 2-year warranty cover?
MEATER's 2-year manufacturer warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. This includes electronics failures, sensor malfunctions, charger issues, and similar manufacturing defects. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse (exceeding the 550°C ambient temperature limit, dropping the probe, water damage to the bamboo charger), normal wear, or accidental damage. Contact BBQ Republic if you need warranty service: we coordinate with MEATER Australia for warranty claims on behalf of customers.
What is in the box?
The MEATER Pro multisensor wireless probe, the bamboo booster charger with built-in Bluetooth 5.2 range extender, an AAA battery to power the charger, and a quick start guide. The MEATER app is a free download from the iOS App Store or Google Play Store. Compatible with iOS 13+ and Android 8+ devices. No additional accessories required to get started. For WiFi MEATER Link cloud monitoring, you will also need a home WiFi connection.
Can I pick up from the showroom?
Yes. The MEATER Pro is on display and available for immediate pickup from our Wetherill Park showroom: Monday and Wednesday to Friday 10am to 5pm, Saturday 9am to 2pm (closed Tuesday and Sunday). Sydney metro delivery is also available. Call 0434 010 411 to confirm current stock and arrange pickup or delivery. We can walk you through the initial setup, including WiFi MEATER Link configuration, in-store if you would prefer that to setting up at home.
