Char Griller Gravity Fed 980 Unboxing & Assembly

I just received my 980 and it came with no manual. I really appreciate your instructions step by step it was the only thing that stopped me from calling Char Griller and lighting them up. Thank you so much.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Awesome! So glad to hear that my video was useful!

[@alabinder]

Wow!! What a great video…I followed this video step by step and never even opened the assembly booklet. This is one of the best assembly videos I have seen…so well done. Thanks a million!!!

[@chicagodino]

Thanks for showing how to but it together it probably saved me a hour of frustration. I finished in just about 2 hours too. Plus a few breaks and some cursing when I knocked the open package of bolts and washers off the table. A tip for everyone… unpack everything before you start. I mean everything. Get a couple of tables and lay everything out. It makes it a lot easier. I couldn’t find the axle for 15 minutes only to see it was packaged with the lid handle.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Yeah I would agree. I had most of the hardware laid out on my tailgate

[@mannynordone4209]

Great job! Thanks for sharing your experience. My neighbor bought one for her husband and asked me to assemble it. I was a little leery until I watched your video. Assembly went together perfectly. Thanks again.

I can't wait for the comparison with this and the MasterBuilt!!

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Coming soon to a theater near you

[@keithlucas6260]

Char Grill heats evenly whereas Masterbuilt doesn't and will burn food next to the box. The only thing better on the MB is the cast iron grates which sear the food and the ability to add a rotisserie later. Both apps are about the same.

[@theangrygardener]

It was great to follow along with you as I unpacked and assembled my grill! Thank you. Frustrating those screws that needed loosened to hide the wires near the end…crap one wouldn’t loosen only strip.

But the part is shown as a separate entity on the diagram on page 12. I have no such gasket. I could not find it in my packaging. Everything has been opened and taken out but no gasket.

I love my Masterbuilt 1050 grill as well

[@jaudjfmfglo]

One thing I noticed on mine, and also the floor model at Lowes, is the hopper has some ceramic plates. They are pre-installed, but were wrapped by cardboard. I removed the plates so I could removed the cardboard. Did you removed the cardboard? Perhaps it will just burn up upon the burn-in if you leave it on.

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Yeah I ripped mine out as well

[@cedricdavis4413]

It looks like it has an internal metal sleeve for the hopper they have aftermarket mods for Masterbuilt due to the hopper having some of the inner metal bubbling some. I didnt know beforehand about the mods or to purchase a high temp spray to heat treat the inside of hopper. They have brands that range from 700°-1200° like stove bright, krylon, or overhead cam spray all range from $8-$14. I always luv your videos my brotha👍🏾

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Thanks man! Yeah on the masterbuilt they put a thin metal that they claim is there to keep the fire brick in place during transportation... but they intend for them to burn away over time.... not sure how much I buy that, but that’s what they’ve told everyone. The mods are nice but are pricey too

Great video on assembly of this grill. Unfortunately mine didn't go as smoothly. The fan housing does not fit into the side of the hopper. I've been in contact with customer service multiple time without any resolution. I have a 250 pound paperweight. I've sent emails/pictures/measurements as requested and still nothing. Without being able to determine if the fan housing or hopper is out of spec, seems replacing both would be the solution. Another week passes without being able to use, what I hope to be, a great grill.

Very good video. Long but well worth it. It answered a lot of my questions but two remain. I would like to see a better view of the internal temp sensor. How easy is it to get to it to keep it cleaned? Next is Chargriller going to make a smaller version to compete against the small Masterbuilt? not all of us have room for such a massive grill.
