A year ago we got our hands on a Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800 and ever since Adam has been putting it to the test. In this episode Adam shares with you his thoughts...the good and the not so good of his Masterbuilt 800 that he has been using for a year now. After a year, does the Masterbuilt Gravity Series still live up to the all the hype?

Have a masterbuilt 800 or are thinking about getting one, what are your thoughts?
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors best damn smoker / grill I’ve ever owned. But does get incredibly greasy. Use a drop pan under grates.
Just bought mine. Can’t wait to try it out
Buying one today! Can’t wait to cook up some delicious food.
Let us know how you are liking it and any tips or tricks you might have!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors Clean the Hell outta it after every 2 big cooks. Bought the LSS Mods and that helps with the hopper smoking chunks. The manifold cover is a must. Also the bigger cook rack is nice. Overall…use a powerful Dawn soap for greased racks rinse well with water then burn for 20 minutes before putting meat on.
Enjoy!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors cooked NY Strip steaks on the 800. Smoked with 5 pieces of Mesquite Chunks on ash bin grate.
250 degrees til internal was 105. Took off and added a Dusting of seasoning. Cranked the 800 to 700 degrees then Seared each piece for about 1 minute -1 min 15 then rotated for sear marks.
Flipped meat and repeat process.
Best steak ever!
I have a 1050. My switch by the charcoal hopper went on me. I fixed it, but it only lasted a few cooks and then went back to not working. I decided to remove the plunger style switch and replaced it with a manual rocker switch that I mounted on the external heat shield wall, outside of the hopper. Hasn't failed yet, it's been over a year now and many cooks.
The lower switch, by the ash bucket went as well. I just pig-tailed the wires together on that one.
Thanks for checking out the video and providing his good feedback. I think I’m going to wire the lid and bucket Oliver’s to one rocker switch then the lid to another rocket switch.
Just picked up one of these on Clearance and Walmart for $150. Can't wait to put it together
Come back and let us know how it goes, what you like and don't like, and your over all experience with he 800. Thanks for watching, James.
Thanks for the review. You are 100% right about the control part of the MB series. Mine went out, but only the screen part. The MB actually still works but I have no clue what my temp is set to because it's a blank screen. Not to mention before my screen went blank when I set a temp at say 500 degrees it showed that its only like 300 degrees in the grill. This was after a year using it and cooking on it a ton. I sent pictures and such to MB to see what they will do about it. Pretty disappointing that they didn't set that stuff up better and also the build quality. If rec tec made one I believe theirs would last 3 times as long as I am expecting the MB to last. If I could do it over again and I knew about these other gravity feeds, I would have went that route. I saw MB and I had to get it because of the charcoal flavor you would get, not knowing about old country or myron mixon gravity feeds that you can attach a fan to, to control the temps like the MB. Hopefully I can get this fix, but right now I can't get an Old country as they are sold out and myron is $4k lol. I am trying to get the myron if the wife lets me.
This is gonna be my first smoker hi ya from the UK .God save the King
This is an awesome comment! Thanks for watching and good luck.
I’ve been trying to kill my 650 for a while now and it just will not die, would luv a 800, but for now it’s gonna be around a little bit from what it looks like. Great video guys 💯👍
Thanks for watching. We won't lie, they do look like they will withstand years of grilling and smoking. so far so good. Cheers!
Love this grill smoker! Maybe for Father's day Steph can get Adam a grill brush!
Right?! But we would argue that it is a “well” seasoned grilled. Thanks for watching, #1 fan.
Hahahahahaha! That is pretty funny.........but true. Maybe Aaron can be a good brother and get Adam one.
Awesome video, just picked up mine from Walmart on sale for $350. Pumped to get started on it!
Thanks for checking us out! Hope you like the set up. Let us know how it goes!
We can't get ours to work.. Tried every step from the book and customer service tips.. But it doesn't work. The sensor from the hood doesn't work. The fan keeps blowing while it should shut off when opening the hood. Very frustrating, this is our 2nd try. First had a temperature problem. Anyone know what could be the problem? Are we just that unlucky..
That’s a bummer. Sorry to hear that. We obviously did not have that problem but it’s interesting feedback. Thanks for stopping in. Good luck….we hope it gets fixed!
Any info where I can get the griddle for gravity 800 MB is sold out ?
Is the 800 better than the 560 with regard to grease draining? I know the 560 sucks.
With my Masterbuilt 1050 I've connected my grill to my phone with the Wi-Fi but it seems like all I can do is monitor the meat temps with the probe that connects to the grill, monitor the grill cooking temp, and I can also change the grill cooking temps from the phone. The one thing that I wanted it to do is do all of that while I'm away from home (not on the same Wi-Fi network) but it won't let me or has difficulties in doing so. Do you know how great it would be to be able to put pork butt or a brisket on the grill in the morning before you left for work and then monitor it all day while at work so when you get home from work that it's ready to eat. Better yet, do you know how awesome it would be to monitor a meat cooking on the grill while out on the lake or in the woods all day? Masterbuilt needs to up their Wi-Fi App game just a little bit, more like Traeger as done with their Wi-Fi App control.
I acknowledge this is a bit techy but you can set up your own home VPN, which you can connect to from anywhere. This will allow you to connect to your home wifi connected bqq.
Yeah that’s waaaaay to techy for Chad. You have to keep things 1+1 = 2 for that guy.
We haven’t heard of the home vpn idea before, but it makes sense and would be really awesome!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors I thought 1+1 = 11. You're telling me I've been wrong all of these years? Damn. What's a VPN? Vasectomies Prevent New (kids)?
I tried unloaded and then re-downloaded the Masterbuilt App for the Masterbuilt Gravity grills/smokers and it's still a pain in the butt to use. They claim they fixed the app at the beginning of June, but it still had a hard time connecting to a wi-fi signal.
How did the 7 pork butt cook go? I’ve been thinking about one to do some small scale pop up catering with.
I eventually pulled it off, but it took 3-4 more hours longer than a normal single butt. It did fine but if you’re looking at doing some small scale catering, I’d look at an offset. This would do but you’ll burn through a ton of fuel. Thanks for checking us out!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors thanks for the reply!
It’s a cost problem for me. I’m in the U.K. and a good offset would be £4000 I can pick up an 800 or 1080 for £800.00 or £1000.00.
Cheers for the reply though!!!
Makes total sense. In that case, shoot for a 1080. Good luck and keep us posted!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors thanks you gents!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors There are a couple of mods from LSS that helps with fuel. Works really well and I save a good amount of fuel.
Would you go to the bigger one for just $99 more?
We can’t say with 100% certainty because we haven’t had both, only the 800…..however, we believe the griddle option on the 800 out-weighs what is gained in cooking grid size on the larger one. I’m sure some may disagree, but that’s our hot take. Thanks for checking us out!
Dude..break down and give that 800 a clean-up! It's really disgusting inside that thing!
We clean our grills as often as we shower, once a month whether we need it or not. Thanks for checking us out! And we will clean the grill this weekend, just for you Aldo!
This is on sale at Costco for $500, seems like a no brainer?
A fair warning, we don’t think the Costco MB has the griddle. Might not be make or break for you but just pay attention to that. Thanks for the tip and checking us out!
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors thanks for the review and the heads up about the costco one not having the griddle. That does suck, but I'm currently without a grill so I think I'll still pull the trigger at that price.
Thanks again!
How about a video of you actually using it
We have two videos that shows us using it and producing food on it. Check our our channel…..it’s the videos titled “Masterbuilt 800 Gravity Series Review. Is it the BEST grill for the price?” And “Grilling Tomahawk Steaks on a Masterbuilt……”. Hope you like them….thanks for checking out the video.
I don't know if you can call yourself a Pitmaster and grilling on a man's grill when you're drinking a White Claw!
So pretty much it's not worth the full price.
