    Longer lasting grill/smoker

    I had a Masterbuilt 560 and it lasted about 4 years. I live in MN and kept it under a covered patio. I would say it's built out of inferior materials. Thin steel. I had a RecTeq prior and while it was built much better it didn't come close to producing the same flavor as the MB. If I were...

    New Masterbuilt Gravity models coming

    My 560 basically burned through the cook chamber and the controller failed. Just not built very well. This new model looks better but I will not spend $1,500 on a Masterbuilt product.

    What is your favorite Lumberjack Pellet flavor for all meats - if you had to choose one??

    100% Hickory. The blends don't produce enough smoke flavor for my tastes.

    Masterbuilt’s controllers are their Achilles heel. Every MB product I’ve owned has had a controller failure.

    LSG or?

    Check out the Camp Chef Woodwind Pro. It has a smokebox that you can add wood and/or charcoal to.

    Oklahoma Joe Tahoma 900 (Pics, Assembly, burn-in)

    Thanks for the pics. Any idea if the area where the charcoal would be burning is insulated? I guess that would be the bottom of the hopper? On my Masterbuilt the steel burned away and exposed hard firebrick type material. Supposedly it was normal.

    Oklahoma Joe Auto-Feed Charcoal Smoker

    True but this has a different hopper design. It’s slanted vs 100% vertical.

    Throw wood chunks in the hopper.

    Tahoma 900. I thought Masterbuilt had a patent on gravity feed charcoal. https://www.oklahomajoes.com/tahoma-900

    New Masterbuilt Gravity models coming

    I think you made the right choice. $1,500 is kind of crazy for a Masterbuilt product. Not sure a porcelain cook chamber or 3 year warranty is worth that kind of cash. I'm sure the warranty does't cover the cook chamber rotting out. If it's actually thicker metal than my 560 then maybe. Your...

    I'm ready to upgrade from my Camp Chef Pellet to an gravity fed...would like some experiences

    I don't know. Char-Griller isn't exactly known for quality.
