Abstract:

An oven includes a housing including a heating chamber. A door has an open position for allowing operator access to the heating chamber and a closed position for preventing user access to the heating chamber. A heating system heats a food product located within the heating chamber. A wireless temperature sensor is configured to be inserted into the food product by an operator for measuring food product temperature and to provide a wireless signal indicative of food product temperature. An oven control system includes a sensor communicator for receiving the temperature indicative signal from the wireless temperature sensor. The oven control system operates in response to the wireless signal.
