OK quality - easy assembly August 23, 2010 Michael Auslander (RIDGEFIELD, CT, US) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an OK unit for the price. Don't expect a heavy duty unit.
One BIG learning -
If you turn on the propane to quickly it triggers something in the pressure regulator and it will severely limit the heat. You will not be able to get it to the right temperature.
I saw this fix online and it worked like a champ:
1. Shut off gas at propane tank
2. Open the pressure regulator all the way.
3. Disconnect the hose from the propane tank.
4. Reconnect to propane tank - leave the pressure regulator wide open.
5. SLOWLY turn on the propane tank while lighting the burner.
Once you do this you can completely adjust the flame.
Burner sensitive to wind May 26, 2010 Wiley (Maine) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Mild gusts of wind will blow out the burner so you have to constantly have to monitor it while smoking on anything other than a calm day. My first try at smoked trout turned out very good however.
So good so far? May 17, 2010 R. Young 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Easy setup. Only thing I question is thermometer accuracy.
Smoked ribs and chicken last weekend and they were great!
Masterbuilt M7P 7-in-1 April 21, 2010 Bill (Arkansas) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The unit is disappointing. I purchased it mainly for smoking and occasional grilling. There is insufficient room between the charcoal disk and the water pan to allow adequate charcoal for smoking. Also, the charcoal ashes dropped onto the air vents clogging them and not allowing enough air to enter to keep the fire going.
Smokin Smoker March 13, 2010 Steve (Santa Cruz, California) 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
I went to various retail outlets to inspect Webers, Brinkman and the Masterbuilt. I ended up buying the Masterbuilt M7P. I also was not interested in refrigerator size smoker either. An 18.5 inch grill diameter suites me fine.
Here's why:
1. Brinkman - Single not multi-tiered. Harder to work in lower chamber unless you're very tall. Priced over (...)
2. Weber - Way over priced, period. Only had charcoal option not duel; charcoal and/or propane. Height to low.
3. Shop the inet. You can find an M7P for under (...).
I can control the heat better with propane rather than charcoal as I like a cooler smoke under 125 degrees. I bought the M7P strictly for smoking as I have a gas BBQ grill. The M7P water pan could be used as a drip bowl if you do.
Kit included an aluminum pot and mesh basket, I suppose for crab/lobster boils.
Masterbuilt M7P
Pros:
* Xlnt packaging as every square inch was utilized. Amazed how small a box the M7P arrived in. No waste. Go green.
* Nice finish. Over time we'll see if the shine holds. Wish it came in a primer (dull) black instead.
* Every piece was wrapped well.
* All nuts, bolts, and screws plainly labeled.
* Easy to follow assembly instructions.
* Smokes extremely well. I use the water pan as a heat blocker to cool the smoke down.
* King salmon, beef brisket and pork butt come out lip smackin' to die for dee-lishous.
* Breaks down easily so multi-usage becomes a reality. Just lift the sections up and away. That's it.
* Handles remain cool after 5 hours of smoking. BIG thumbs up!
* NO smoke leakage, it all inside the unit.
Cons:
* Looking for a another burner. The flame range is medium to high. When set low it tends to choke. By this I mean you hear a whooshing/roaring sound as the flame turns from blue/green to yellow/orange. By low I mean the flame is licking the chamber bottom 8" away, yet I cannot maintain a blue/green flame.
* Have to make adjustments to the top lid air/smoke vent so it closes completely.
**Note: When installing the burn unit note the positions of the legs. One leg is at the back while two are in front. Mount the unit so the propane hose faces the correct direction - right or left - as it's not long enough to reach around if mounted incorrectly. If U goof, it's a simple four screw removal to remount the unit...a 2 minute job.
