The Masterbuilt Gravity Series 800 is a charcoal grill, smoker and griddle in one, with a flat-top griddle insert, reversible cast iron grates and digital control of any temperature from 107°C to 371°C (225°F to 700°F).
The flat-top griddle sears and sautés breakfasts, burgers and fajitas, while the grates take steaks seared over hot charcoal or ribs smoked low and slow. Fill the GravityFed hopper with lump charcoal or briquettes, light it with a fire starter and set the temperature on the control panel or in the Masterbuilt app; it reaches smoking temperature in about 8 minutes and 371°C (700°F) in about 14. The 5,187 sq cm of cooking space holds 12 chickens or 57 sausages.
The DigitalFan moves air from the hopper into the cooking chamber to reach the set temperature and hold it, while gravity feeds fresh charcoal to the fire for up to 10 hours. For a stronger smoky flavour, one or two fist-sized wood chunks in the ash bin add smoke for two to three hours. The reversible cast iron grates have a sear side for a deep crust and a smoke side for low-and-slow cooking, and the app sets the temperature and cook time, sends alerts and tracks up to four meat probes.
The 800 comes with the flat-top griddle insert, reversible cast iron grates, porcelain-coated warming racks and a removable ash bucket and grease tray. It also takes the Masterbuilt Pizza Oven and Gravity Series Rotisserie attachments.
