What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the grill for delivering authentic charcoal flavor, remarkable versatility, and set-it-and-forget-it convenience. Many highlight the gravity-fed system's ability to smoke, grill, sear, and rotisserie with consistent results across hundreds of cooks. Reviewers consistently report three to five years of reliable use without major issues, calling it a workhorse and best investment. A small number mention controller or fan failures after extended use, but these concerns are vastly outweighed by widespread satisfaction with performance and flavor.

Still Performs Like A Champ!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grill is a great smoker imparting wonderful flavor and spot-on controlled-temperature cooking. Being able to have a high-temperature option for the grill to sear meat is a definite plus.

Great product!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm happy with my 1050 purchase. I chose the larger racks and don't regret it. No problems and no error codes. And best? At a reasonable price.

Phenomenal Grill
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had many grills, this is the only one that is a joy to use. It has a simple app that's actually useful. Fast and easy to light and grill, takes less than 10 min and I'm grilling! The temp holds very well, and the flavor of the meat is excellent!

great smoker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have enjoyed the ease of smoking with 1050- have made brisket, ribs, chicken, pork shoulder - able to smoke overnight without refilling charcoal

Amazing
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 800 series 2.5 years ago and loved it from the first time it was lit! Cooks perfect every time. Holds the temp (we live in Michigan) no matter how cold it gets. Can't say enough good stuff about it. I have 4 friends that have bought the same smoker and they all love it also.

Great smoker overall
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this smoker for a few years now, and my favorite part about it is that it uses charcoal instead of pellets. I have compared pellet smokers to this and the flavor from the smoke on this charcoal smoker wins every time. It is very easy to start up everytime as long as you maintain it and keep it clean

Best Cooking Ever!!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been cooking with fire and smoke for years from stick burners to pellet smokers. I bought my second pellet smoker after wearing out the first one. Even though it was the same brand as the first and their largest it was so inconsistent I hated turning it on because of the flack it might get from my family of bbq judges. I spent some time researching Masterbuilt and found a lot of good reviews which led me to purchase the 1050 Series. I have...

Love my 1050
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my 1050 for about 6 years and it has worked great. I do believe it needed to be built with more heavy duty parts. Makes great food. Keep it clean and keep on smoking

Plenty of room for gatherings
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my 1050 for about six years. I cook on it almost every weekend. Love it. I will upgrade with another Masterbuilt when the time comes. The large cook area handles the job for the current meal plus meal prepping for the week!

Love my grill
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this grill from a outdoor Market. I loved the design of it. The guy selling it didn't know much about it, so asked him to let me do my homework on the grill and get back to him. Looked it up and loved features. Couldn't wait to get back to him to get it. To my surprise it was already sold. So I told my wife I am getting one regardless. So the gentleman told me he would try and get me another one. I gave him one week or I was going to ...

Why did I wait so long to get this???
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just purchased an 800 gravity series for my birthday, I’ve been using charcoal to grill with all my life. When I got my first smoker it was an electric Masterbuilt. I love smoking and grilling and watching all the videos on YouTube, saw the gravity series and thought man that’s right up my alley! So I waited and waited until! I started thinking that this can do everything I’ve always wanted!!! Omg, best thing I’ve ever purchased for myself si...
