The MeatStick Introduces MeatStick V Core Set, the Wireless Meat Thermometer Built to Expand

MeatStick V Core Set gives everyday cooks and existing MeatStick V users a simpler way to start, add more Sticks, and keep them charged from one scalable system

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, June 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The MeatStick^®, the wireless meat thermometer brand behind more than 1.7 million monitored cooks, announced the launch of MeatStick V Core Set, a standalone wireless meat thermometer that brings V Series Stick technology to a $59.99 entry point.

MeatStick V Core Set ships the same Stick used in the MeatStick V Forge Set, the brand's dedicated pit monitoring system. The difference: V Core Set pairs that Stick with a charge-only dock instead of a smart base, built for active cooks where the phone stays right next to the meat.

• The Problem Core Solves
Many wireless thermometer systems are built around the base, the display, or the cloud-connected case. Those features matter for long cooks and remote monitoring, but not every cook needs the full system on day one.

MeatStick V Core Set puts the focus back on the Stick. For everyday grilling, searing, and quick proteins, many cooks just need accurate internal temperature tracking from the food to the phone. Core delivers the same five-sensor MeatStick V Stick technology used across the lineup, paired with a simple charge-only dock instead of a smart base.

No smart base. No WiFi cloud. No standalone display. Just the Stick, the app, and a clean place to charge it between cooks.

Core also solves a practical expansion problem for existing MeatStick V owners. Instead of buying another full system to get more Sticks, users can add Core Sticks, keep them organized with stackable chargers, and drop those same Sticks into any MeatStick V smart base when the cook demands more range or WiFi.

• Built for the Active Cook
MeatStick V Core Set is designed for cooks who stay close to the food: searing on cast iron, ribeyes on the grill, chicken on the stovetop, reverse-sear finishes, and weeknight grilling. Phone propped on the counter or patio table. Eyes on the temperature climbing live.

For these cooks, the Stick delivers data an instant-read can't: continuous, hands-free, never opening the meat.

For cooks that need extended range or enclosed environments (overnight brisket, closed kamado, oven roasts at distance, sous vide), pair the Core Stick with a MeatStick V Prime, V Duo, or V Forge smart base. The base extends Bluetooth range and adds WiFi cloud monitoring; the same Core Stick works with each one.

For existing MeatStick V owners, Core is the simplest way to add another Stick. The range extension and WiFi cloud you already have now covers your new Stick too.

• Built on Award-Winning V Series Technology
MeatStick V Core Set uses the same Stick technology found across the MeatStick V lineup. Five internal sensors automatically identify the coolest point within the meat, helping cooks track doneness with greater confidence throughout the cook.

The Stick delivers ±0.4°F / ±0.2°C internal temperature accuracy through four-point factory calibration to NIST standards.

The Stick stays in the food from start to finish. Its alumina ceramic handle is built on FireForge™ technology, engineered to withstand direct exposure up to 1,200°F / 650°C. The food-grade stainless steel body holds up to repeated cooking and cleaning. 50+ hours of continuous Stick battery life carries everyday meals, back-to-back cooks, and longer sessions.

For local monitoring, MeatStick V Core Set connects directly to The MeatStick App over Bluetooth^® at up to 164 ft line-of-sight.

MeatStick V Core Set is built on the same platform recognized by the Red Dot Product Design Award, the NBBQA Award of Excellence: Best BBQ Tool, and the Kitchen Innovation Award: Golden + Professionals' Choice + Consumers' Choice.

• Stackable Charger, Scalable System
Each MeatStick V Core Set includes the MeatStick V Charge Stack, a compact, USB-C powered dock for one Stick. As users add more Core Sticks, the Charge Stacks link together and charge from a single USB-C cable, keeping multiple Sticks organized and ready.

MeatStick V Core Set works on its own, and the same Core Stick works with any MeatStick V smart base when the cook needs WiFi cloud monitoring, a dual-probe LCD display, or wired ambient probe support for pit monitoring.

Each Core Stick ships with platinum-cured silicone color rings in yellow, blue, and red, with no catalyst residue migrating to food-contact surfaces. Rings are assigned in-app during Stick registration, so cooks can match each Stick to what it is tracking at a glance.

One app. Up to 8 Sticks. No duplicate range extender required.
