IR really doesn't work that reliably against reflective surfaces.
Personally I use https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083SZC6S/ with https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GFHYA8 to read it if I need that answered.
They make other K Type Thermocouples but basically you drop the tip in the bucket and it tells you how hot it is.
I tried IR against various surfaces; the only surface it works great at is is non-reflective. So if you have something behind the banger that won't reflect ... you can get a reading
The issue with those temp guns is that they are garbage for any kind of reflective surface, even with adjusted emissivity.
If you want to know the REAL dish temperature, i suggest you get a contact thermocouple and sit it directly in the bottom of the dish, touching it. You'll get a MUCH more accurate read. My emissivity adjusted temp gun reads about 75 degrees out (higher or lower) than a contact k-type does. It's also a pain in the ass to know if it's really looking at the bottom of the dish, or just some heat radiating off the side. Those lasers aren't lined up well.
Somthing to this effect, usually they can plug into a nice multimeter or a standalone device:

That one goes to 1000c, 1832f.
They exist. How they engineer them must be interesting.
I feel like measuring temperature is a big deal.
Would this work (2 Thermocouples and a microcontroler):
