ah it’s this way.

ok, just consider buying bare sensors and attaching them to some MCU boards you like - with good connectivity and all - some distance away from the boards (working MCU alters readings significantly unless you bump it into ultra low power, which makers of these simple adafruuit probes often do not care about). It’s way cheaper and easier to integrate in most cases, also you get to choose sensors just for the task, often you can get insane performance (like, glass-clad Pt thermal probes are often surprisingly cheap, for example)
