Gravity-fed hopper feeds the coals so you’re not standing over it with a chimney and a prayer. Set the temp on the digital controller, let the fan do the work, and get charcoal flavor with the kind of hold you expect from a smoker built for a shift, not a Sunday. Runs low and slow for a shoulder or ribs, then opens up hot enough to sear once the bark’s set. One grate, two jobs, less tending. Good for the cook who wants real smoke without feeding a fire every twenty minutes through an eight-hour cook.

What cooks are saying
  • 01Set-it temperature control frees hands for other prep during long cooks
  • 02Charcoal flavor without the constant fire management of a stick burner
  • 03Wide temp range covers both low-and-slow smoking and hot searing
Why it's here

I run the 600 wood-only rather than the charcoal-plus-wood Masterbuilt advertises. The hopper feeds splits fine and you get real smoke instead of charcoal with a wood accent, which is the whole reason to own a gravity feed over a pellet grill. Pair it with a Fireboard for more fine-tuned results and capabilities such as unattended smoke temperature adjustments for long cooks — lower temp smoke on the front end, higher temp to get close to target, and drop down for extended hold and finish of render. The design and the technique are the same across the range — only capacity changes.

What I'd add to it
Why the pros use it

On a line where you're running six things at once, a smoker that holds its own temperature earns a spot. This one lets you load it, set it, and walk away to work the rest of the pass, which is the difference between a smoker you use on Sundays and one you use on Tuesdays too.
