Omaha, NE - Omaha Steaks today announced the addition of the iGrill cooking thermometer functionality to its Steak Time iPhone application. Steak Time, Omaha Steaks free app which debuted in the New and Noteworthy category of the iTunes store earlier this year, was designed to provide the tools for preparing and serving the perfect steak every time.

Steak Time offers an innovative Grilling Timer that enables the user to create a personalized steak timer setting for each guest. The timer indicates when to put the steaks on the grill and exactly when to turn them to achieve the specific degree of doneness that each guest prefers. The iGrill, a temperature probe cooking thermometer with a long range Bluetooth® connection, integrates seamlessly to upgrade the Steak Time app, by giving the user the ability to now cook by temperature, as well as by time.

The iGrill function enhances the Steak Time app by allowing the user to monitor the internal temperature of the items being grilled or smoked up to a distance of more than 200 feet, making it ultra-convenient for slow roasting and smoking food preparation.

• Multiple cooking timers and temperature tools which allow users to set food preparation timers directly from within recipes and view active times and temperatures from anywhere in the app.

• Ability to browse the Omaha Steaks store from within the app.
• Conversation card feature that provides a host of interesting facts and questions to help liven up the dinner discussion.
