Modding your grill or smoker is a popular pastime for many BBQ enthusiasts. It’s a way to get even more value out of your investment and make up for some of the shortcomings many cookers have. Plus, you can tailor your cooker for your unique needs and environment.

We highly recommend investing in our Masterbuilt manifold kit; this is stainless steel metal cover that sits over the standard Masterbuilt heat manifold (the bit that the heat exits form to heat the BBQ). The manifold has turned up edges to help funnel grease over the ends rather than allowing it directly over the area the heat escapes, reducing flareups. Once you are finished cooking, simply remove the stainless-steel sheet and clean it with hot water. We also have available drip pan holders in the kit, allowing you to mount a disposable drip pan over the manifold to catch all the drips. This will make clean up easier and give you the option to use the drippings for your gravy etc. Do all Masterbuilt gravity smokers have a rotisserie option? You can space your wood chunks evenly throughout the charcoal hopper, placing a single chunk every 2 or 3 inches. This grill/smoker is aimed at people who want the taste of cooking with charcoal, without any of the hassles.The hybrid Masterbuilt Gravity Series is available in three sizes: the medium-sized 800; the monster-sized 1050; and the entry-level, smaller-capacity Series 560 I'm reviewing here. The Masterbuilt 560 is quite unlike any other charcoal grill on the market and you can be sure it will invite inquisitive glances from your guests who will wonder what the hell it is. To which you will answer "just watch and learn, and after today’s barbecue, you too will go out and buy one".

Located in Pwllheli, Gwynedd, Wales, we pride ourselves on our passion for Kamado Joe, Masterbuilt, Napoleon BBQs, and Ooni Pizza Ovens. We are committed to providing quality products that cater to all of your family's grilling needs. In this blog post, we will explore the Masterbuilt BBQs in detail, specifically focusing on the differences between the three models – 560, 800, and 1050 – and how they can enhance your family gatherings. Everything I cooked turned out great, and none of the issues I found would be considered deal breakers. Yes, you can grill on the Masterbuilt gravity-fed series. But, you can grill just as easily on a much smaller, much simpler, more fuel-efficient, and much less expensive charcoal barbecue. BUT, it’s good to have a dual-purpose bit of kit that can primarily smoke, and grill on occasion when needed.

The vertical charcoal hopper is designed to hold over 12 hours of briquettes. The hopper will hold about 10lbs of lump, give or take the size of the lump charcoal that you’re using.

Reviews

I actually recorded temperatures as high as 737°F a few times so it’s safe to say this grill can sear. Temperature accuracy test I don’t seem why that bonded section couldn’t have been put at the BOTTOM of the door away from the fire.

The Masterbuilt 1050 displays thoughtful design and skillful execution. It’s well built, and clearly, the people who designed it know their way around a smoker. Simply fill with charcoal, light, set the required temperature on the control panel and cook, it's really that easy! Yes, it sure will. Its digital fan that forces the air draft will always give you a clean fire, and we absolutely recommend you add wood chips or chunks to your fuel, experiment with different flavours. You can even place a long hardwood split log, often used for open fires or offset smokers, into the charcoal chamber, then surround it with charcoal; this will give you a long clean smoke. I have to remember that I have the 1050 model, though, the largest one available and that the 800 and 560 models are simply bound to be far more fuel-efficient due to their smaller size. GravityFed™ Charcoal System: Our patented GravityFed™ system ensures a steady flow of charcoal for consistent heat distribution and minimal refueling. Say goodbye to babysitting your grill and hello to stress-free cooking.The charcoal reservoir is designed with two baffle plates to shut off the supply of oxygen at any point when you’re done with your cook. By sliding the two plates into the closed position, oxygen will be cut off from the fire, suffocating the fire and beginning the cooling process. Simply load the hopper with briquettes or lumpwood charcoal, light the fire then set the desired temperature on the digital control panel, or a smart device using the Masterbuilt App. The variable speed DigitalFan™ will then maintain the cooking temperature at the required level as the digitally controlled fan moves air flow from the hopper to the cooking chamber to give full control over the temperature. The Masterbuilt App also doubles as a fantastic resource for recipes plus all sorts of information to master the art of smoking, grilling and more.
