Masterbuilt Gravity Series 560 Digital Charcoal Grill + Smoker - MB20040220

Smoker was dropped shipped to my home about 8 days after order. It took about one half hour to unpackage, and about two and a half hours to fully assemble. Suggest watching assembly videos online before starting. This smoker is pretty versatile, the app allows you to control the smoker remotely. The YouTube universe has a ton of videos on recipes as well as tips and tricks to get the most out of your unit. I came from using a offset smoker that you had to tend every fifteen minutes, this unit allows me to smoke overnight or throughout the day with minimal tending.

The Masterbuilt Gravity-Fed Charcoal Smoker is amazing! It's incredibly user-friendly and versatile—you can fire it up for a quick meal in no time or let it run low and slow for hours. The flavor it delivers is top-notch, and the convenience of the gravity-fed system makes smoking so much easier. Highly recommend for anyone who loves great food without the hassle!

The Masterbuilt 800 Charcoal Grill Griddle Smoker has become my go-to for backyard barbecues, delivering the rich, smoky flavor of charcoal without the hassle of constant tending. I recently fired it up for a 27-person cookout, and the digital temperature control was a game-changer: set it to 250°F, and it held steady through hours of smoking pork ribs and brisket, freeing me to mingle instead of babysit the fire. Toss a handful of hickory or applewood chunks into the hopper, and you get that non-stop, authentic smoke infusion that elevates everything from meats to veggies. I've flipped between the griddle and grill sides seamlessly—the griddle shines for smash burgers with crispy edges and perfectly charred vegetables, while the grill handles ribs, steaks, and hot dogs like a champ. Easy cleanup, versatile performance, and that unbeatable charcoal taste make this smoker a must-have for anyone who wants pro-level results with minimal effort.

Received as a gift. Highly recommend the 545. Cooks very well, keeps temp constant. The cast iron sear plate works perfect. Love it!

I've had my Masterbuilt 1050 for about 3 years and have been able to provide incredible smoked meats for personal and company events. Recently, we had a retirement party for one of my staff and i was able to put 2 large briskets and 2 pork shoulders on the smoker at the same time. These meats came out perfect and were enjoyed by the attendees. Having that much space in the Masterbuilt 1050 made this cook so much easier.

Easy Charcoal grill / smoker to use. Love that charcoal can be shut off and not wasted.

Gravity Series cover is so simple to put on and take off. Does an excellent job keeping weather off of grill.

These lumps burn smooth and even and provide that perfect smoke flavor. The fire starter blocks make getting my gravity grill going super easy.

I still have my original cover on my 560 from 2019. It is very faded, ripped in one place and the draw cord has basically disintegration, but it still holds and keeps most of the unit covered and safe so I still use it

I bought this 3 years ago with high expectations. I have been grilling for decades and this machine seemed like the answer to those of us who prefer charcoal. I am sad to say that in my hands, he machine had a fatal flaw concern the partially used coal blocked the air flow such that the entire hopper has to be emptied to clean out the coal catcher that was blocking the fan. Because the partially burned coal blocked the removal of the coal catcher, I have stopped using the machine for two years and will have to get a Weber which I am very good at using.
