I did all the mods to my 560 three years ago when putting it together ... everything is still ok and no problems

It’s September 15th 2022, pretty much the end of the BBQ season and Walmart is putting a lot of there BBQ’s on clearance. Just picked up the MasterBuilt 800 w/ griddle (display) for $260. I am jacked! Can’t wait to get cooking on this puppy.

Alrighty, Tommy. I finally got a masterbuild 800 after watching you for 2 years and join your FB group at the start.

GOOD INFO TOMMY FOR THOSE MASTERBUILT OWNERS

[Mankitchenrecipes]

Those are some great mods Tommy! And yeah, ya gotta make some modes to fit your style IMO! 👍👊🍻

[FritzFrank]

Here are the mods I have: Firebox, Hopper Lid, Damper, Racks, Water Pan, Fan protector slide, Ash bin platform and Drip Pan/Manifold cover. The Hopper Lid and Damper have definitely helped the efficiency of the burn. Water Pan is great but a little bit of a pain to clean. only use water in it. I put some other stuff in it and it caked up. Drip Pan/Manifold is great, makes clean up really easy and has protected the manifold itself a lot. I have two of the Racks but really should've only gotten one as the top rack is really close to the lid. The new fan protector is much better than the original and easier to use. 6 months in with some of these mods and I feel they have enhanced the cooking experience a lot, especially when i put the hopper lid on about 3 months ago. The one I would not get is the Ash bin mod. With the new, better hopper/starter bottom, not a whole of of large chunks fall anymore. I'm glad I got the mods as I think it's helped enhance, at least, the experience of grilling, if not that actual cooking itself.

salut j'adore t'es vidéos continue a en faire j'ai un masterbuild 800

[garryhammond]

Excellent detail on how to do the mods.
I was a little lost for most of them on what the actual effect of the mod is supposed to do (especially for the hopper mod) - is there an issue with the hopper?
I don't own one of these, but could possibly apply a similar mod to a different unit, if I knew what problem they solved. - Cheers Tommy!

Can anyone recommend any mod to the manifold to block the direct heat to make the bottom rack (grill grate) less hot so the bottom grill grate can be utilized to pack more meat in the smoker?

[MrTibbs]

Normally…we would’ve had words, with you putting down my Weber G.O.A.T kettle, but ya bought the 1050 and modded it on delivery, people…let me tell ya…the brother is absolutely right…haven’t touched my Weber in over 2 years…😂😊

[charlespickard]

Why not use foil on the drip pan manifold? Instead of scraping just replace the foil every cook

[MrThleckey]

So new to this type of grill. What do most of the mods do exactly? What is the benefit to most of em?

[TexasPapa]

Wish you’d explain what each mod does. Some are self explanatory but a couple like the fire box insert and water pan, I’m trying to figure out what the purpose is.

[palladini]

I have mix of LSS modes and Klotes Mods on mine

[locodiablo]

I saw a guy just slide the fire box mod right down the hopper without taking the hopper apart on a new machine… is it necessary to take hopper apart on a new grill?

[w.thompkins]

Are you able to give me any insight on why these mods could be good? I know some find them helpful and some don't. I am interested in the thoughts of those that do find them helpful. Also, can you add or send me links to purchase the mods?

[curtisjeffries]

I have a bad Firebox interlock switch. I ordered the new one but I don't know how to remove the cage so I can replace the old switch. Can you assist?

[Kasper-HafRak]

Great video, so now that you have the mods working, do you think it wins over the char grill 980?
