Masterbuilt 30 Inch Outdoor Barbecue Digital Electric BBQ Meat Smoker Grill

We replaced our old smoker which was also a Masterbuilt, which we had for about 8 years! Loved it was sad when it quit working. Bought this one and it is even better than the old one which eas a similar model. This one a little fancier and love it

If you use this smoker EXACTLY as the instructions indicate, you will be delighted with the flavor. Most often, it is best if you finish your cooking in a conventional oven to obtain this best texture. I highly recommend getting the extended service policy because this unit use to have the reputation of bad wiring, but it seems like the wiring is better now.

Have used for over a year now. Not one issue. Have cooked every thing from pork ribs to vegetables in it. Most foods I put chips in one time and walk away until it's ready to come off. I still like to taste the meat. And this really puts the smoke flavor in. Only time i add more is with brisket, pork butt, thicker meats. Finally smoked some deer jerky. Was hoping to dry it from beginning to end in it. But even with the vent wide open and nothing in the water pan it held to much moisture. Recommend smoking for a couple hours, then finishing on dehydrator. Takes some practice to figure out what you like. But it is way worth the time and beer to get it done right. 40 yrs old now. Been bbqing since 15. At this point in my life i have done it the hard way. Nice to plug it in punch a few buttons and walk away.... Yes it is a pain in the butt to clean. Go get some sos pads and get after it. Happy smoking and don't be afraid to try new things. Keeps life interesting.....

This is my second one, nothing wrong with the old one just needed new racks and they cost more than a whole brand new smoker....just like buying prints it's cheaper to buy a new one than it is to buy ink cartridges.lol But the bottom line is this is the best smoker for the money than any other I've seen, most of my friends have smokers, we smoke something every weekend and by far mine is the best. The Masterbuilt Electric Smoker rocks! I put mine in the garage to keep it out of the weather and made a smoke pipe that goes out of the garage so it's never in the weather and it work perfectly.

I got this smoker just in time for a Memorial Day BBQ and was super disappointed to find that it didn't work. It wouldn't heat up. After reading other reviews, I now know that this is pretty common with this model. I sent it back and purchased the Traeger Jr. Wish I would have done my homework to begin with. If I were you, I'd buy something else!
