Only when I’m slow roasting something that take hours. I got a bluetooth meat thermometer as a gift a little while back and it’s really convenient. There’s an app that goes with it. I just set what type of meat it is and insert the thermometer and let it cook. The app tells me when the food is ready.
But that’s only for large pieces of meat that take a long time. For anything on the stovetop or grill, or any smaller pieces of meat in the over/airfryer I just do it by feel. I’ve been cooking long enough that I can tell when a piece of meat is ready just by pushing on it to feel the firmness. And I have a pretty intuitive sense for how long something takes to cook.
