Masterbuilt Dual Fuel Smoker Review
Masterbuilt’s Dual Fuel Smoker has a “Flame Disc Bowl” located above the gas burner and under the water bowl. It can be used for wood chunks when smoking with gas or, alternatively, filled with charcoal. Hence the Dual Fuel moniker. It has one damper on each side at the bottom by the burner and flame disc bowl, and another on top at the back.
Two front doors facilitate replenishment of water and wood without opening the smoke box while cooking. The built in heat indicator is super low quality. As always, do yourself a favor and invest in an accurate digital thermometer. Check out our Searchable Thermometer Reviews to find one that fits your budget.
Many owners love these inexpensive smokers.

Masterbuilt
Masterbuilt is known for manufacturing low priced cookers, made in China for frugal people in the USA. They’ve always produced some models with a few unique features that provide a little bang for very little buck, but most of their products were largely more of the same cost driven stuff with a different logo on the lid. However, in recent years Masterbuilt has taken a step up in quality and innovation. In fact, some of their new products are starting to win our top awards. They are a company on the move, grabbing our attention.
Masterbuilt is widely distributed online and at brick and mortar outlets, including big box stores.
