Is there a big difference between the Thermoworks ones and these I found on Amazon: Lavatools PT12 Javelin Digital Instant Read Meat Thermometer for Kitchen, Food Cooking, Grill, BBQ, Smoker, Candy, Home Brewing, Coffee, and Oil Deep Frying https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GRFHXVQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_O9zkEbB0W3ZZD ThermoPro TP20 Wireless Remote Digital Cooking Food Meat Thermometer with Dual Probe for Smoker Grill BBQ Thermometer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GE77QT0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_naAkEbXZQT599

I don't like the idea of depending on any of their shitty software so I have one of these:

In addition to the other recommendations having a good thermometer is very helpful.

I’d also get a pair of welding gloves for handling hot stuff. They’ll last a lot longer then many of these woven fabric gloves you can find on Amazon.
