Q:

Is there a protective cover I can buy?

Answer: Yes there is

Q:

Does this use a lot of propane??

Answer: No, I find it doesn’t use a lot. Low/slow burn.

Answer: it used alot of my patience. this thing is poorly built. the inside peeled off after only a few uses, and when i say peeled off it came off in sheets and ruined food that i was smoking. the design is very poor. you will have trouble regulating temperature as well. save yourself the headache and look for something else.

Answer: No. Nothing unusual

Q:

Does this use pellets?

Answer: No, this unit calls for wood chips or wood chunks.

Answer: No. I have found that wood chunks work the best.

Answer: This model uses wood chips.

Q:

can you buy additional racks and brackets and if so what is the part number?

Q:

What are the inside dimensions? I want to go larger than I already have.

Answer: this thing will disappoint you, and you will be ignored by their customer service. please find something else that 1.) doesn’t let peeled/melted paint fall all over your food 2.) is able to maintain a constant temperature without major highs and lows during the cooking process.

Answer: It’s not peeled/melted paint. Are you an amateur with smoking with these things????

Q:

can you buy additional racks and brackets and if so what is the part number?

Answer: Yes, no problem.

Can this be used as a backup oven and not a smoker ?

Q:

Does anyone have a link for a manual / parts list for this smoker sh19050211 - can't find a link on masterbuilt or smoke hollow site?

Answer:

Answer: Appliance Factory Parts

Q:

Why is a smoke hollow product listed with masterbuilt as the manufacturer? outdoor leisure products and masterbuilt are not the same.

Answer: Masterbuilt has their line of smokers. They built this unit and smoke hollow bought the model and threw their name on it. It's a good smoker.

Answer: Smoke Hollow is owned by Masterbuilt.

Q:

I would like to purchase a box about 18 inches tall to put under the lp gas smoker you have. I am 6' 11" and need a little help. Do you a solution?

Answer: My husband is 5 11 and he loves how tall this one is. You should be able to put that under yours and make it tall enough for your height.

Q:

Where do I put the wood chunks/chips in this smoker?

Answer: I use an old cast iron pan on top of the round tray.

Answer: There is a circular tray on top of the burner.

Answer: The round tray that sits on the burner

Q:

Should the smoker door have a gasket on it? iam getting alot of smoke coming around the door.

Answer: No this door doesn’t come with a gasket just like other smokers don’t have one either. You can buy smoker gasket material here on Amazon. I use it and it works perfectly well.

Answer: No, there should not be a gasket. This is designed to allow continued airflow to keep the flame burning.

Q:

what is the weight of this product?

Answer: Not sure of the exact weight, I'd say over 100 pounds for sure. Just had a 60 mph thunderstorm and it didn't fall over.

Answer: Approximately 75lbs

Answer: it’s junk. dont waste your time

Q:

Is the cooking cabinet insulated?

Answer: The cooking cabinet of this smoker is not insulated due to the high temperatures a propane smoker can reach.

Q:

Can you buy a replacement disk that holds the chips? I’ve had this model for two years and love it but my desk is starting to crack.

Answer: i bought a cast iron pan and throw wood chips in that. the pan that comes with this thing didnt look too sturdy to me

Q:

Can this use natural gas? Kit available to retrofit?

Answer: The unit is set up for propane. When it was unpacked there were no other nozzles included. Nothing in the instructions mentioned natural gas.

Q:

Can this unit handle smoking cheese

Answer: This unit's low temperature will be around 200-225F.

Answer: I use mine with a cold smoke generator if you do this you will need to keep the temperature of the smoker below about 70F and less than 60 F is better. For most of the US this means after Labor Day and before Easter for cold smoking or at night in many places.

Answer: I don't think it would be a good idea. This smoker really does not do cold smoke.

Answer: find something else. this smoker will give you nothing but problems, such as paint flaking off on the inside and falling on to your food, and the burner is a POS. It is next to impossible to regulate the temperature with this thing. I spent 3 months waiting on replies from their customer service. (i don’t fault them for that, it was during the beginning of this covid nonsense). They sent me a new case and a new burner. I switched everything over. The same exact thing happend again

Answer: yes it can,if the regulator doesn't break.we used it 2 times,went to use it a third...Broken

Q:

Does anyone have a link for a manual / parts list for this smoker sh19050211 - can't find a link on masterbuilt or smoke hollow site?

Answer:

Answer: Appliance Factory Parts

Q:

How big is just the inside cooking area not counting the leg height? Description says 43” tall so I’m guessing that’s w the legs

Answer: The actual bin (smoking area) is 34Hx24Wx16D

Answer: 21.25Dx29.25Wx35H

Answer: Should the smoker door have a gasket that should be on it. Iam getting alot of smoke out of the door.

Q:

I would like to know hottest temperature can go

Answer: On high, this unit can hold temperatures up to 400F

Answer: It can get up to 500 degrees. Hubby loves his!

Answer: Find another Smoker this one is complete junk the insides peel off and fall all over your food

Answer: 600 degrees

Q:

How do I control the temperature?

Answer: Adjusting the flame with the burner control and opening the vents to varying amounts will allow you to adjust the temp.

Answer: You need to gradually move the temperature knob and keep an eye on the temperature. I typically keep it on the lowest setting with mesquite wood in the bottom and it stays around 220 to 250 for 8 hours or so. It's an awesome smoker.

Answer: Turn the knob clockwise

Q:

Does this have a removable floor pan?

Answer: No

Q:

Is the propane tank included

Answer: No, the propane tank is sold separately, at most hardware stores and grocers.

Answer: No. It does accept 15 or 20 lb propane tanks, as an lp gas grill uses.

Q:

How do I make a warranty claim?

Answer: Contact Amazon--they will put it through for you.

Q:

Why does the cost of this item keeps increasing its up 10% in one week

Answer: because the price of scrap is going up. that’s all the smoker is worth.

Fauna : Cheap.

Scratched legs and a bowed bottom. All scratched items came out of a very well packed box.

Dylan Huddle : Worlds Ok-est Smoker

I read some rather polarizing reviews before I bought this. There seemed to be a recurring complaint about internal paint sloughing off onto food, lack of thermal stability et cetera. I have a lot of experience cooking with all manor of equipment both commercial and residential and I like to tinker with things. So for the approximately $250 I decided to pay to see the flop.

I got mostly what I expected. A simple sheet metal structure with a little bit of stamping, and handful of fasteners and some adequate but decidedly un-fancy fittings for gas, temp and manually introducing water for steam. Heeding the warnings about paint sloughing, I decided to coat the interior with flax seed oil and take it up to max heat for about 20 or 30 minuets. This is a good method for reviving cast iron/carbon steel pans when they get a little raw from scrubbing. It seems to have worked well. The polymerized oil created a good protective layer sufficient for keeping the wood vinegars in the smoke from damaging the internal paint. A cheap solution I would recommend to anyone who buys this unit. The fit and finish is average in keeping with the apparent design philosophy. The door is not air tight, and honestly, you don't need it to be. A little leakage won't prevent you from cooking just about anything successfully.

Fair warning, this is not an Alto Shaam. You will not get spectacular control over heat. The walls are thin enough that the outside temperature will have an impact on your cooking. If you want a little more heat retention a couple of cheap pizza stones will improve things a lot. If you're trying to cold smoke, bypass this and just get some smoke wood from MTC and use a hotel pan and some plastic wrap. That said, I've had no trouble producing good to excellent results across several types of smoke wood and food. Mushrooms, brisket, bacon... If you've got a little finesse and don't mind babysitting it a little it's 100% possible. The internal temperature gradient is relatively forgiving. Dropping a sheet tray on the lowest rack helps keep the heat nice and diffuse. The ignition system works well so far, though I expect I'll be lighting it with a torch in a year or so.

It behaves about like I would expect for an option at this price point with this style of construction. If you want a smoker that leaves nothing to be desired you'll need to spend at least 4-5 times this much money or more. If you want a BBQ pit get a wood burning offset and learn how to make it work for you. For my purposes, this is about the OK-est t solution I could imagine. 3/5 stars through and through. Not a disaster, but not a world beater either.

Frladya27 : Great Smoker

My husband loves his Masterbuilt Smoker. He has owned three of these. They last about 5-7 years. We leave ours covered and under the carport. Over time the burner starts to determinate and it starts to either not want to start the fire or the burner has corroded and the flames seem to become too much. Overall, it’s a great smoker and the food that comes out of it taste like real barbecue. My husband starts it off wit a pan full of charcoal and/or wood chips. Then he lights the burner to keep the food cooking. Love the thermostat and that help maintain a good cooking temperature.

swpxtom : Buyer beware

The entire inside has a coating on it. After 7 or 8 uses this coating bubbled up and came off in sheets. I have no idea what it is made of and I dont know how much of it flaked off before i noticed it. It kind of pissed me off. Not sure what to do about it. The door is cockeyed as well, and has been that way since I got it. I have to pull up on it and latch it tight to keep it closed properly or else it just leaks smoke.

**update** i contacted the manufacturer and they just keep bouncing me between reps through emails. i scraped out the paint and tried to use the thing again. it wont maintain a temperature at all. the temp spikes constantly, and not like a normal spike that happens with all smokers. poorly made and complete junk.

Jimmy James : Great big smoker but thin rust prone bottom panel and ring.

I had 2 of these before this one. I love the size, 24" wide and the number of racks, the adjustability of rack location and the finished product always tastes great. The one great big negative is the ring in the bottom of the smoker that the smoker bowl fits over will rust out in a NY minute. Some folks say its the LP gas or byproducts that are corrosive. I dont know. The smoke bowl that you put wood chips or chunks in rusts/burns out pretty quick too. You can make or substitute a different smoke pan so that is not deal breaker. The door on my new one is crooked and does not seal well at top left corner. Maybe can shim it or seal with and oven gasket. Maybe close the damper and let smoke out where it does not seal. Ran in to a problem trying to register for warranty which according to MB/SH you have to do. This model # is not listed. You cannot register without it. I did file a warranty claim by selecting a listed model # and saying mine was not listed. You cannot call MB/SH, all you get is a recorded message telling you everything has to be done on line. I call this TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE but this is what the world has come to. These companies have gotten so cheap they wont even pay for an off shore 3rd world call center for their customer service. Also to register for warranty you have to take a picture of your receipt and the back of the smoker where the model # and serial # are. You have to upload the pictures during the registration process. I like the concept, the ease of use and what it does for ribs, butts and briskets but the rust out problems, fit and finish, total lack of customer service would recommend you look else where.

Amazon Customer : Love this smoker.

Absolutely love this thing. Second one I've gotten. Love to smoke every thing in this. Butts, chicken, turkey, cobbler, pies, ribs. Did ditch the weak chip tray in the trash. Placed with a cast iron pan.

Amazon Customer : Unit came in great shape

I had no issues w/this product. Box came in with a few issues but the smoker was wrapped and protected. Easy to install and start up. Delivery guys even helped bring it in the house. Already smoked a brisket, pork butt, and chicken breast. Did not use very much propane for leaving it on all day. FANTASTIC

Nexus One : Doesn't reach temps unless the weather conditions are perfect

A friend if mine gave me one as a gift as I used it twice and both times I had the hardest time getting it temp. Today it's 75F outside windy and the smoker will not go higher than 170F with the but we on high and a new gas tank. I know some people say to insulate it, build a brick wind guard around it, etc... But the product is unsable for me as it is. Thanks for ruining my game day ribs by not being able to reach 225F!

Braun thumb : We’ll see

Same smoker as Masterbilt with a few modifications. My old Masterbilt lasted only 3 years. Stays outside covered all year round. Bottom of old one rusted out badly. We’ll see how long this one lasts.

Ronald riva jr. : Have your drivers be more careful

I don’t like it when the box comes to you with cuts and tears all over it. My order was okay but what about next time. If it continues I wan’t be ordering any thing else Ronald Riva jr.

Melissa Edgemon : Unhappy customer

Missing part #11 water bowl holder. Can't smoke meat without it. So the smoker is useless. Can I get the part delivered or my money back?

Danni : We like it

My dad loved this smoker! But after having it for 5 months, the hose that connects to the propane has busted. And it’s like a $75 replacement part. Just disappointing - thought it should last longer. Outside of that - we really love it.

Lily's Mommy : Needs to be reengineered.

Had to use a hammer on the misaligned hinges to get the door on properly. The paint on the interior is already bubbling and peeling after 3 uses. In spite of all this, still able to smoke some amazing food. Will be sanding and refinishing before further uses though.

Mangetout : Love it!

Is it perfect? No. Is it the best smoker I’ve owned yet? Yes.
I got mine from a box hardware store. Then I let it around six months before opening it. Apparently they dropped it somewhere and it had a big crease across the back. I started calling it the “Masterbent”. The was crooked as heck too. I thought it was from the crease in the back, but after seeing reviews of others with miswelded hinges, I figured that’s what I got as well.
A 20oz claw hammer to the back and hinges straightened it up enough for me to be happy. Well, as happy as I could be after having to hammer my unit into shape.
The holes in the chip pan seem silly. It was impossible to remove ash without making a mess. So I got two half inch pieces of rebar a foot long and used that as a spacer and replaced the chip pan with a small cast iron skillet. I also set some wood blocks on top of the unit to aid in adding chips during a smoking session. I set the skillet on top of the unit and burned/scraped a little paint off. Whoops.
Lots of folks said the igniter only worked once for them. That’s one more than I got. So a long reach butane lighter now starts it.
Some folks don’t like the thermometer. I think it’s great. I’m using a really cool digital gizmo with four probes for my meats. They’re instant read and even graph over time. Plus the Bluetooth to my phone. But I still need to know the temperature of the box.
The absolute biggest plus is being able to do entire racks of ribs or full briskets. That’s why I love this thing. I just considered the basic unit a blank canvas. With my tweaks, I’ve made it my own. And I’m happy with that.

Amazon Customer : Unit came in great shape

Andre Williams II : Melted paint will ruin food

This smoker is great it regulates the temperature fairly well. I did have an issue with the black paint that coats the inside melting, and ruining my brisket. The temperature never got above 250° however the length of time it was in use caused all the paint to melt. I had to take a paint scrapper to removed all the melted paint. Once I did this I haven't had any issues.

J&B : Would recommend to a friend

Had this smoker over 6 months now and very happy with it. For 250 degrees you'll leave the dial at about the 6 o clock position or a few minutes earlier. A 2 lead bluetooth meat thermometer makes life a lot easier especially when smoking brisket or pork shoulder overnight. Propane and wood chips is the way to go IMHO. Less time consuming than charcoal and more affordable than pellets.
