I would like to add that it is important to remove the burner and hose assembly from time to time to clean it. Spiders like to build nests in there which restricts the flow of oxygen and causing soot to be produced. An occasional cleaning of these parts will help to prevent a completely ruined meal.

Great suggestion Craig and we definitely agree! We always recommend doing the soapy-water test and checking for any bugs or spider webs prior to use! Thanks for your comment and for being a part of Team Masterbuilt!

Need to change the wood chip tray wood catches on fire so I had to put a cast iron pan on top of that wood chip tray.
@mistered94355 ай бұрын
Mine does that too. I stuffed aluminum foil into the openings in the original pan. Problem solved

I just got this smoker and put it together. Seems to work alright except for the igniter. I can see that it sparks but it’s not lighting the propane. The manual says to make sure it’s in a specific location, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to adjust its location except for maybe bending it… I’m guessing bending it is a bad idea. Got any better ideas for me?

For anyone who is buying a master built beware because I received one in a box that was totally destroyed and re-taped and yet I did not get any type of open box or damage discount. Then to top it off there is no telephone number to call and they force you to contact them online. This mean they can take up to a week or more to get back to you or even if you need a replacement part. If I could do it again I would buy a different brand or one that I can get at a store that is easily returnable

On the one I just bought the lower door clamp fell apart on first use. Very poor craftsmanship. Unit worke well otherwise and I recommend, but you need to be handy with tools

Just bought one from HD and didn't bring a tape measure. Won't hold a full rack of ribs. Must be trimmed. My fault but we'll see what happens with first smoke after seasoning.

I just built one of these and put it together about an hour ago. Right now, I'm doing a temperature stability test. One question: What the heck is the chain and the wire with the loop on the end of it for (yeah, I know I ended the sentence with a preposition)?
@Masterbuilt6 жыл бұрын
The loop at the end holds a match in case you need to light the gas that way.

The third time using this smoker the hose caught on fire and got so close to the propane tank. Not sure how it happened, but if not for my dog scratching hard on our sliding door basically letting me know something is wrong, it would have been catastrophic.

I have had similar experiences. Here are some tips: 1.Get a smoker box, they are cheap and work well to keep flames down. also easier to clean 2. soak your wood chips for at least 30-60 minutes before use. this will keep them from igniting as easily. 3. you can buy a propane line extender if you are super worried -Just some random tips from a wannabee bbq master. I hope it helps *cheers
