Key Features
- Includes a flat top griddle insert and cast-iron grates for low and slow smoking or high heat searing
- DigitalFan for precise temperature control
- GravityFed Charcoal Hopper holds 16 lbs of briquettes or 10 lbs of lump charcoal for up to 10 hours of fuel
- Convenient fold out storage behind side shelf to prevent loss or damage to the power supply
In just 10 minutes, it can reach smoking temperatures as low as 225 F, or climb to 700 F in only a few minutes more for a perfect steak sear. The vertical charcoal hopper holds up to 10 lbs of lump charcoal or 16 lbs of briquettes, providing up to 8 hours of consistent cooking time. As gravity pushes fresh charcoal toward the fire, spent ash drops into the bin below for easy cleanup. For shorter cooks, simply insert the included slides to cut off airflow, extinguish the fire, and save your unused charcoal for next time. Enhance flavor by adding wood chunks either to the charcoal hopper or the ash bin to generate rich, smoky notes. Heat and smoke flow evenly through a precision-engineered manifold with graduated ports, ensuring consistent results across the entire cooking chamber. The main cooking area features cast iron grates and an optional flat-top griddle insert, giving you plenty of space and versatile cooking options for entertaining any party.

My husband was excited to get this grill after it being recommended to us by a friend, but we've had problems with the fan going out, as well as the seal around the hopper completely melting.
The Masterbuilt Gravity Series 1050 is hands down one of the best purchases I've made. It's so good, I honestly don't have enough words to describe it. The temperature control is incredible — set it and it holds steady without constant checking. The gravity-fed charcoal system makes it super easy to get that authentic wood and charcoal flavor without the hassle of babysitting the fire all day. It heats up fast, cooks evenly, and produces amazing smoke flavor every single time. The cooking space is massive, perfect for family gatherings, parties, or game days. Brisket, ribs, chicken — everything comes out juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. If you're thinking about getting a smoker, stop thinking and just get this one. It's a total game changer. Highly recommend!
I have been using this grill for a couple of months and have done everything from steaks to brisket to pork fish to eggs&bacon to cheese (cold smoked). After about the third cook I really got the hang of being able to get a fire started quickly and dinner going. The best so far was smoked 13lb turkey that I spatchcocked and it only took about 1:45 and was perfect.
I use my grill weekly and love it overall. Since day one the computer part has not worked as well as I had hoped. I do not keep it plugged in unless I am using it. Once I get the fire going I plug in the grill to start setting the temp and get the blower going. I do it in this order because the computer malfunctions / errors out every time and just beeps until I unplug and plug it back in. The screen throws all kinds of codes and it just won't do anything but beep. Sometimes it works after this process of unplugging and plugging back in after one time and time and times it takes three or more time. The temperature control using the knob works a quarter of the time and then I'll have to unplug and plug back in to do a system reset. The thermometer probes and ports have never worked correctly since I got the unit as well. If you put the electronic problems aside, and get it working right after all the unplug and resets, I absolutely love the grill. I love that you have a three in one unit. The few times that I have done a long smoker it is a little difficult to manage the smoke but that is part of the fun of smoking. I find that it is a pleasure to use, when its working how it should be. The charcoal consumption is good and I find myself using it year around.
This smoker is very easy to use. I enjoy the ability to check temps and adjust temps right from my phone. I can be fishing or at the store and still be in control of my smoker.
Bought this 4 years ago. Great features but don't always work properly. The computer components are not top quality. And it will randomly stop running or stay on when opening the lid at times. Other than that th whole concept of it is amazing
This is the best grill I have ever owned for cooking, Grilling, Smoking anything you want a BBQ for this does it better.. Hands down better than any pellet grill and I have had several of the top names.. I have to say that I am having a problem with mine and need a new display, Mine quit lighting up so I can not see temp or anything to set it.. Might be a fluke or maybe other people have this issue
I love the versatility of this grill. Low enough to smoke with great charcoal flavor. High enough to sear a ribeye or porterhouse. Then insert the griddle for smash burgers or Philly cheesesteaks!
It stopped working, replaced all switches and fan still not working. To much spent to have such a short life span.

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
