Now everyone has been asking... Camp Chef Woodwind Pro or Masterbuilt Gravity Series?? Well I put them to the test and I'm here today to squash that beef, and by beef I mean smoked beef ribs! The results SHOCKED me!

I wanted to choose a protein to smoke that really put these to the test, so I got myself two 4-Bone rack of Certified Piedmontese beef ribs and prepared the experiment. ( bit.ly/40mI6v7 )
my homemade rub:
2 TBSP Coarse Black Pepper
1 TBSP Salt
1 TBSP Lawry's Seasoned Salt. ( amzn.to/3x0uyI5 )
1 TBSP Granulated Garlic
1 tsp Granulated Onion
1 tsp Paprika
1.5 tsp Brown Sugar
Prepared and seasoned exactly the same, then smoked at 200F for 1 hour, then 300F until 190F (bark set up), then wrapped in beef tallow covered butcher paper until 203F internal temperature. You can see that these smoked dino beef ribs turned out amazing.... but who was the winner? You tell me!
I hope you enjoyed this video experiment here at Andersons Smoke Show! I can tell you that both grills performed flawlessly and that the results honestly shocked me!

They say that the Camp Chef produces a smoke profile like no other pellet grill. Lone Star Grillz Pellet Smoker has been said to be the closest thing to an offset wood smoker. So let's see which one comes out on top between the Camp Chef Woodwind Pro and a Lone Star Grillz Pellet Smoker.

I’ve been loving my Woodwind Pro. For pork, and anything that works with a milder wood, I basically over smoke it early on. Break up cherry coals with an old pair of scissors, and Jam Pack that smoke box with another chunk plus some chips to maximize the space. Every 30-45mins, I almost never wait a full hour. Great strategy when using Cherry or Apple, in my opinion.

I’ve had the WWPro for about 11 months now. I had one augur issue that popped up in a video, but my grill was basically a pre-release, and they made an enhancement to a part inside due to issues that surfaced with the pre-release Grillz. So the issue that I had would not be seen by the public. Other than that, I haven’t had any problems with it now the Masterbuilt doesn’t really have any moving parts besides the small fan that used to control temperature. There really isn’t much to go wrong other than maybe the sensors but they all kind of share that as well.

I own neither, but think both are great concepts. And as you referred to with trying different proteins is if the results are neck and neck without seeing major differences after several comparisons would be cost and longevity. Say on average you use your smoker/grill 25 times a year, does it still run and operate as it should? Will either last 5-10 without changing major components that impact the cost of ownership? Only time will tell.

I appreciate your videos, really, I do, however, in this one I think there are some inequities that does not make it an apples to apples comparison. First, start off with the fact that you put the Wagyu beef tallow in the camp chef, but you didn’t show putting any of that into the master built. Second, the video shows plenty of smoke coming from the camp chef every time you open the lid, but there was no smoke visible at all coming from the master built. Did you not include any wood chips with the charcoal? All I’m saying is it doesn’t appear to be an apples to apples comparison.

@AndersonsSmokeShow Жыл бұрын

Well I used operated both grills per their recommended operation. The Masterbuilt had roughly the same amount of hickory scattered throughout the hopper as what I used in the smoke box. The difference is the type of burn that the hardwood goes through between the grills. I didn’t count them out but I guess in the next cook I will. In regards to the tallow I didn’t have much left and it didn’t make sense to try and split it up between the smokers… but both racks of ribs got the tallow during wrapping and at the end.

Yes, he also cooked too far left on Masterbuilt. He sabotaged the Master Built cook. He could only sabotage it visually though. Even without wood and low temps the Master Built tasted better. His family even said so. He getting paid. 😂 All good..Don't know why the KZfaqrs want to hide that they're getting paid? He's probably not lying saying that's he's not sponsored, but there is a difference in sponsorship and donation. Anyone that knows anything about smoking knows that a pellet will never be better than charcoal and, or wood......

I've seen people commenting that the Masterbuilt Gavity series seem to run cooler than the temperature you select. So, even though you selected the same temperature on both, did you check to see if they were REALLY the same? 25 degrees across many hours could make a big difference.

@TheIngoBeck 11 ай бұрын

It all depends on conditions. My MB GS runs hotter than settings here when it's 110°F. I would expect it would probably be cooler when it's 40°F. Either way, I use a ThermPro+App instead of using the MB app to monitor my temps.

@LogicallyKnot 11 ай бұрын

He cooked too far left with the master built. Yes, the left side is cooler. Which is why the bark wasn't as pronounced. Also looks like he used very little of any wood. He knows the temp difference, I've seen him do a video on it. Seems he may have sabotaged the Master built. 😂 Also his family said the master built tasted better and he went with CC. Probably got him a fat check.....

Maybe I missed it but I didn't see anything showing what fuel was used. I've tried many different pellet brands and have given up using any pellet smoker because of no flavor. Might as well just use a gas grill. Gravity with lump or a stick burner is my go to for flavor.

A few inches of charcoal and then a few chunks of wood isn't the best method to get bark and smoke in the MB. Layer wood and lump vertically in two even columns inside the hopper, that way you get even smoke and heat the whole cook. Going full wood in the hopper is good too.

What was your opinion of the Piedmontese ribs? I cooked them on my woodwind pro too and I was underwhelmed with them tbh. They’re definitely tender but I think the lower fat content hurts the flavor. I’m used to beef ribs being very rich and fatty, these didn’t really do it for me. Definitely still great ribs but didn’t hold up to what I’m used to for a beef rib.

@AndersonsSmokeShow Жыл бұрын

The Piedmontese beef is definitely leaner which does change things up a little bit. In general I find the Piedmontese beef to have a beefier or earthier taste when compared to other beef. I also don’t think they suffered from lack of juiciness or tenderness either. Fat plays a major role in meat and flavor and it’s something to get used to if you go towards a leaner option. One of the things that I love about certified Piedmontese is the mission and promise. My family for several generations back were farmers and I have an appreciation for going the more natural route.

Not a real comparison if the fuel is different. You used Hickory pellets and chips for the cook in the Campchef and Charcoal and Hickory in the MB. To do a side by side just use a charcoal bed to get the MB started and then fill the hopper with hickory or as others have suggested put splits of hickory surrounded by charcoal so there is hickory smoke the entire time. That would be an accurate comparison.
