You need to find a multi meter that will work with a TC. Usually the multi meter will come with the TC and the connectors and a dial position that says "C" or "temp". I was amazed to find one at Wall Mart for $17 with a TC. Most cheap multi meters do not have TC support.

Here is another example: http://www.techbuys.net/tm-108.html

Both of mine only have a 1C resolution though which means it round the numbers to the nearest whole number. In other words 4.51 will be rounded up to 5. or 4.5 will be rounded down to 4. Would be nice to have one that read 4.25 ect...
