Nexgrill’s Oakford 790, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity to monitor your grilling remotely, represents a significant value among pellet grills. We just wouldn’t suggest hiking into the woods with it. That might seem a tad heavy, but it has cast-iron grill grates and it’s fabricated from thick-gauge steel instead of cheap stamped sheet metal. We were surprised to find that the Rambler is nearly 50 pounds. As far as portability, this table-top grill doesn’t break down to take up less space-what you see is what you get, and it might be difficult to transport in some smaller cars. You can manage heat with the damper on top and monitor it with a large, easy-to-read thermometer. To cook chicken slower, we shuffled the coals to one side, put the chicken on the other, and closed the lid. The burgers we grilled had fantastic coloring and that trademark cooked-over-charcoal taste. The charcoal tray is adjustable, hanging from a ladder rack that can quickly raise or lower the coals as needed. We were really impressed by how easy it was to grill with either direct or indirect heat. This somewhat simple, unassuming grill turned out to be the “sleeper” in our test. Just open a door and empty the bucket-it’s that easy. Due to the vertical hopper, the charcoal flows down as it burns, with the ash simply falling into a bucket at the bottom. If you love the taste of charcoal-grilled food but cleaning up ash has held you back, Masterbuilt managed to take that hassle out of it. Chicken on the bone cooked to perfection in about 40 minutes placed on the racks above the grill grates, away from the heat, and with the temp backed down to 400. We found this to be a nice temp, between a sear and a slower cook, that gave our burgers a deep, brownish red color, with dark grill lines. Grilling burgers, we set the temperature to 500. On our first cook, a small brisket we had on for almost six hours at 220 degrees developed a fantastic crust-it was so easy, and so tasty. Using lump charcoal provides a smoky flavor, but if you need more smoke, you can add wood chips to the ash bucket, where they’ll burn slowly as embers fall on them. Smoking in the 560 is as easy as setting the temperature and a timer. It comes with one temperature probe, but there are ports for three more. Masterbuilt also has an app that pairs with the 560 so you can set and monitor the grill remotely. Temperature is maintained with a digital thermostat that controls the fan feeding air to the fire. Its innovative design stores charcoal in a vertical hopper on the end of the grill, where it is gravity-fed and burned from the bottom.įlames and heat are drawn horizontally into the grill, where they enter a large diffuser and then rise to the grates. With a temperature range of 150 to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, the 560 Digital Charcoal Grill is a multipurpose backyard cooker.
