Prime Day Deal: Shred Meat Like Wolverine for Only $9 with These Alpha Grillers Meat Claws
Summer is here, and you know what that means? Barbecues, cookouts, smoky meats and lots of sunshine. And don't forget that delicious pulled pork -- seriously, who doesn't love some pulled pork (besides those who don't eat meat)? But you know what doesn't rock? Shredding that pulled pork or other meats. Regardless of how you do it, the task can be tough and tedious. But not if you have these amazing Meat Shredder Claws from Alpha Grillers, which is down to just $9 thanks to Amazon's Prime Day deals, which is $8 (47%) off the normal $17 price. Look at these things. Grab them, and you have some freaking claws on your hands -- you can go to town on all the meats you want. I mean, you can look like the Wolverine of barbecues, and who doesn't want that? Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Slap these bad boys on your hands and you've got the ultimate set of claws to just rip that pulled pork to shreds. No more using forks and knives to shred up that meat, just use your hands. They're durable and heat-resistant thanks to lightweight, BPA-free nylon, so you don't have to worry about them melting even if things are just too hot to handle. And they also have grooves for that super ergonomic feel because you need that comfort when ripping meat to shreds. While these are designed to make shredding meat easier, you can also use them for a lot of other things. You can shred up poultry, lift those turkeys out of the roasting pan for the next holiday, or you can impress your vegetarian and vegan friends by tossing salad around with your Wolverine claws. These also make a great grip when you slice up big melons -- no, not with a sword, just a big kitchen knife. Let's not get carried away here. When you're not flexing around with your meat claws, they can be washed by hand or in your dishwasher, and they're easy to store in your cabinets. These make a great gift for any guy who loves barbecuing, cooking and smoking meats. Don't forget to check out other great Amazon deals under $25. Why this deal matters You want claws.

I'm a pro baker: Here's my foolproof way of telling when cakes are perfectly done
Psst: You, with the toothpick you're about to stick into your freshly baked cake — I know your intentions are pure and that you're simply observing the methods described in countless recipes. But, if I may, I'd like to share an alternative way of checking the done-ness of your creation because, frankly, it's much better. As someone who used to bake for a living, I've learned that the most accurate way is by taking its temperature. Doing this eliminates a lot of guesswork, and by using an instant-read thermometer — like the highly rated Alpha Grillers Meat Thermometer — you'll get your verdict in seconds. There's no shortage of methods for gauging the doneness of various foods (steak "finger test," anyone?), but if it's true accuracy you're after, temperature is your best indicator. I rely on this method for cakes especially, as the top of a cake can look perfectly golden brown and still be raw inside. Sure, a toothpick will convey that if it's covered in runny batter once you take it out — but often, recipes will tell you a cake is done when a toothpick comes out clean. Here's where my issue lies: Cakes will continue to bake once they're out of the oven due to residual heat, so when a toothpick comes out clean, there's a chance that cake will be overbaked by the time it's cooled. Plus, a toothpick will come out clean whether the cake is overdone by five minutes or 20 minutes, so it's not a good test when it comes to ensuring you don't end up with a hard, dry brick. To achieve a perfect consistency every time, I always set my timer for half the amount of baking time called for in the recipe. At the halfway mark, I rotate my cake in case of oven hot spots, which can cause certain areas of the cake to bake more quickly. Then, I set my timer for half of the remaining time — oven temperatures can vary wildly, so I'd rather check on it more frequently. Once the timer goes off, I'll see if the cake visibly needs more time, i.e., has a center that jiggles. If so, I'll set the timer for 3-to 5-minute intervals and — you guessed it — keep checking. Once the cake looks done, I'll take it out and take its temperature by inserting my thermometer into the middle, about halfway down, as that's the part of the cake that takes the longest to bake. In general, I know my cake is ready when it's around 205° to 210° F — it varies a bit depending on the cake. You can also use visual cues along with (not in place of!) temperature: In many instances, a finished cake will start to pull away from the edges of the pan and there won't be runny batter on the thermometer's probe. Using an instant-read thermometer like Alpha Grillers allows you to get a reading ASAP, which means you'll be able to pop your creation back into the oven if needed without it cooling down too much. Plus, the thin probe won't make a huge hole right in the center — and if you use it for meat, it even comes with a handy temperature guide. Nearly 60,000 home cooks and bakers swear by this little doodad. "This thermometer is great!" exclaimed a satisfied shopper. "So easy to use on everything — not just meat — I will no longer overbake cakes and banana bread from now on. And I really appreciate that it is magnetic, so it's always on my refrigerator when I need it." "I bake artisan sourdough bread as a hobby at least once a week," shared another. "This instant-read thermometer was so helpful, as it determined the exact temperature of my bread, telling me when it was done. It created the perfect loaf without me having to guess whether or not it was done inside. It was very easy to use. I will never be without this again." "I was so surprised [by] this little thermometer," wrote an appreciative myope. "It's so fast and accurate ... I need this for baking ... because every time you open the oven, the temperature drops, so a fast-read thermometer is best. ... The display is super bright and the numbers don't need me to have my glasses on." "It hasn't lied to me yet, since I haven't gotten sick from food poisoning!" declared this grateful grouser. "[My] only complaint is it is not for left-handed people. I've gotten used to reading it upside down, but otherwise [it's] very easy to read. Tells the temp quickly, but I give it several seconds to make sure. ... I like that it has all the temps on it that you need, since I don't have them all memorized." "This is way better than the unit it replaced," said an underimpressed user. "Seems to be accurate and is easy to recalibrate if needed. I love the magnet and backlight, although I wish the light stayed on a bit longer." While we're on the subject of cake, here are a few of my go-to tools: If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem.
