So what's the deal with the Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800? That's the question that I am here to answer today. In this overview you will get a feel for every aspect of the Masterbuilt Gravity 800!
The Masterbuilt Gravity Series 560 treat me well for the past two years... It was such a cool concept that I even got the Char-Griller Gravity 980. Fast forward 2 years and here I am with the Masterbuilt Gravity Smoker 800. Now they also have the Masterbuilt Gravity Series 105, but I personally wanted the Masterbuilt Gravity 800 griddle.... I even added the Masterbuilt Gravity Series Rotisserie Kit.

I do wish the 1080 came with the griddle or I totally would have went bigger. So far, I've done some steaks, burgers and did my first pork shoulder over the weekend. Everything came out amazing. I did see you tend to use two fire starters when you light the grill. I've honestly had zero issues using 1 masterbuilt fire starter. Wait like 90 seconds and we are off and running.

Thanks for this I just ordered the 800 today. Was almost about to buy the 560, because it was cheaper, and with an extra pair of racks, it would hold the same as the 800 (could get a pair of racks for $50CAD). That was until I came across a blog post that mentioned that the sidewalls of the 800 were thicker and porcelain covered, whereas the 560 was something like double-thin steel. Really looking for firing mine up, been a few years since I've cooked with charcoal (my last two smokers were the Traeger Tailgeter and the Master Chef Turismo Pellet Grill, which died within a year)

@AndersonsSmokeShow 2 жыл бұрын

The charcoal definitely gives a stronger smoke over the pellet grills. I’d take the 800 over the 560 any day…. Even at the extra cost

@@AndersonsSmokeShow Did get an 800. Used it a few times, the jury is still out. What I don't like vs pellet, is the creosote build-up.

Still experimenting with it, and haven't gotten sick yet

I really wanted the cg980, but I got the mb800 because it was on discount at costco. I felt like a settled, but I didn't realize the mb800 goes 50 degrees lower. I too smoke fish, in fact thats what I smoke the most. I actually prefer to cold smoke, and in my old chip burner I would cycle the smoker on and off so I could achieve ~100f. in other words, I only cured and smoked and never ever cooked my fish. really happy I got the mb800 now, much safer for the way I like to smoke fish to know it can cut itself off at 150 even if I neglect it a little.

Besides that, it works fine but I expect for these amount of money an undamaged grill.

Hi bro, How to turn off the fire with left over charcoal briquettes in the hopper.. Pls advice?

@AndersonsSmokeShow 2 жыл бұрын

You turn the grill off and put the metal slides back in place…. This cuts off air to the fire and will choke the fire out.

Thanks a lot Andrew, thinking about purchasing a gravity fed charcoal grill Already have a Blackstone and my Traeger (Ironwood 885) pellet smoker, so griddle plate really isn’t necessary for me 560 model good model, looking to do occasionally grilling and some smoking on it here and there

I personally like the 800 better. You can get the 800 without the griddle at Costco and it’s slightly cheaper

Hey there, i have the traeger silverton 620 right now! Just got it, but its costco 😁, would this be a better buy? I may trade out this weekend!

I mean that’s a tough question… pellets are a more mild smoke where charcoal is more bold. Masterbuilt requires slightly more involvement at startup where as pellets don’t.

Wow that’s a tough one honestly…. I think I’d have to go with my Camp Chef pellet grill. I probably cook on it more than any of my others… it just runs great, clean and easy to operate too. Don’t get me wrong though, there isn’t a grill that I have that I don’t like… that’s probably why I have 13 🤣

I sure hope this video didn’t warrant a purchase of this pos for any of you. Most of these videos are influenced by Masterbuilt with free demos and promotions, etc. and Masterbuilt does a fine job of filtering any comments or negative posts. I have a 14 month old boat anchor of a 1050. First the switches, seals and temp controller will die, after your 1 year warranty is up you’ll notice that your firebox completely burned away. You’ll also learn from customer service that this is to be expected, but their research team has determined it would be years before this has happened, so you’re just SOL. I challenge any of you who have owned one of these longer than a few months and several cooks to let me know your unbiased experience.

@AndersonsSmokeShow 3 ай бұрын

They posted videos for years on how it works. You have a hopper full of charcoal, it burns from the bottom, and a fan blows through the coals and blows that heat into the smoker. The strength of the fan, which is controlled by the controller, is how it regulates temperature. It’s a very simple design.

The Gravity series is total shit. I've had my grill for 6 months and so far have had to dismantle and clean it, replace 2 switches & a cord and the computer will not update or connect to my phone. The fan will randomly quit working. I've had emails to and from the company and demanded phone calls. I've gotten exactly 3 cooks out of it and have been embarrassed with guests waiting on food. IT IS A PIECE OF SHIT!!! Don't buy it.

Sorry that you’ve had a bad experience. I’ve got two different masterbuilt gravity series grills and haven’t had an issue with either one… I can’t speak to the customer service though as I’ve never had to use it.
