Calibrating Oven

[Taurus50]

Whats the best way to calibrate an oven?

I'm guessing just put a thermometer in the bitch and close if, then let it sit in there for a while...Pull it out and if it says 275 and you got it set on 275 then you are good to go...

What kind of thermometer do I need for this?

Thanks brothas,

get two baking thermometers. 3 bucks at walmart. place them in the oven and set you dial give it 30 mintues or so and look at thermometers while in the oven. adjust dial til you get to the right temp and then mark it on the dial. your oven will be off more than likely. most are. if you have a big disparity in the two thermometers get another and try again. getthe free standing thermomoetr or the kind you can hook on a rack.
