700° Reverse Seared Steaks on the MasterBuilt Gravity Series 560 

What do you think? Are you interested in buying a gravity fed charcoal grill? Would it replace a current grill or be an addition?

I also own a MB 560. Quick tips - If you're going above 275 on your cook remove the grates scrape the roof and clean the catch pan before to prevent a grease fire. - Use only fuel for your cook. I only completely full my hopper if I am doing a 8 hour or longer cook. For these steaks fill up a charcoal starter bucket and use it as a measuring cup of sorts. Then dump that into to hopper. - I bring the steaks up to 105 on the middle warming rack NOT the grate. Why? The right side of the grate is hotter and by using the warming rack it takes longer to reach 105 so I get more smoke induced into the steak. - Use the proper side of your grate, in this case sear. Set to 700 let the grates heat soak that temp. Use the right half it runs hotter than the left at 700F

I just got mine yesterday for an early fathers day gift. My boys got it for me. Younger one built it while the older one went to town and got food and supplies. We seasoned it then did burgers and dogs. I love it!! Tomorrow were doing this video, ribeyes!!!

Best Masterbuilt video, so far! Thanks!

He has GREAT , easy to follow tutorials !

Thanks for the video! Just got my 560 a few weeks ago. I've only done burgers and ribs so far, but I can't wait to try this method with some steaks!

how long did you sear on 700F on each side??

damn those steaks look great. just ordered the 1050 last night, can't wait till it arrives!

Just got a 560 and was browsing some content and came across your vids. great videos subscribed!

These new masterbuilts are pretty sweet! Steaks look awesome!

Nice job dude! That B-Roll is absolutely buttery.

Great video and editing. It’s a great cooker. Very versatile. I agree with you. One of my gripes was that Masterbuilt should’ve included at least two probes if they offer four ports. Looking forward to more videos.

Very nice presentation and easy to understand directions. Hope ya make more videos. My 1050 is arriving soon. Take care

Great video/editing work. Also, you have a pleasant, likable onscreen persona, which isn't always the case with some of these endeavors. Plus, you actually know what you're doing around the grill, which again, sadly can't be said for some, if not many. My neighbor and I both recently got this grill/smoker and love it. If I could only have one cooker (I have 5), this would be it, especially for the price. In fact, my pellet cooker might be re-homed soon! Keep it coming. Liked and subbed!

Was planning to buy a masterbuild. Watching your video makes me want buy one now.

Flip those grates over for the sear dude....more surface on the meat!!!! Awesome steaks!!

Great video and content. Thanks

Just got this grill for Christmas. I’m grilling up some strips tonight using your method. Review later

Killed it man 🤘🤘🔥🔥

Thank you for this vid!!! I’m on the fence between this or a pellet grill and this one is winning for sure!

Looking good brother!

Great video

Im impressed with this pit. I got to play around with one a couple months back. Id rather this over my pellet smokers likely i think. I see you are new to the RU-vid bbq community. Glad i came across your channel. Cheers

thanks Noah !! good demonstration !! i know how to use this now ,got slow roasted pork loin now on a go .....i am gona tried some tomahawk steak later on on seared ....

How long do you slow cook until the meat hits 100 degrees?

I love my Masterbuilt!!! Once you master it you’ll never use the kitchen again.

Hey wait a minute do you mean to tell me you don’t need to drown that meat in every rub possible then stand back and tell everyone how delicious it actually is😂

How long did you sear for?

I Recently purchased the 560....Enjoyed your video, I noticed that you said you only season with salt before the cook, when do you season and what kind of seasoning do you use for steak?

Why didn't you use the sear side of the grates?

what was the internal temp once you seared them?

Question may need to go to mastebuilt, your smoke was perfect, nice light blue. Mine seems to be white and dirty. I have only cooked on it 3 times now but trying to figure out how to get away from the dirty smoke on this thing. Used Kingdford professional and cowboy wood chuncks. Any suggestions? Like your presentations btw, not over the top or trying to be "cool" just professional. Thank you

Great video, would love to see some flames while searing though.

You state that you went over your initial internal temperature a bit, I was wondering if when using the included probe, will the app allow you to set a monitor/alarm to go off on your phone when you reach a set temperature? Seems like the app would be perfect for that.

Love the video, hate the stickers. Take it from a guy who, at 8 years old, proudly incurred the wrath if his father for removing the showroom stickers from his year-old fancy VCR.

Great video! Did you sear both sides at the end 4 min. each side?

I wanna get this grill so bad but I have the pit boss Austin XL but soon I’ll pick this one up

Delicious steaks! How's easy is the grill to clean?

how much time did it take to get to the 110 internal mark? waiting on my 1050, should come in a few days.

Were they frozen?

Steaks look good. Use the hole on the side of the lid for the probe!

How hard is it to remove the manifold for cleaning some say U have to undo screws while u slide and lift how much of a pain is it really?

Do you keep the grill open while you’re searing once it gets up to temperature?

did you ever mention having to remove the blades between the fire box and cooker?

What's the best way to flip the grates from Smoke when hot? to Sear side?

Looks awesome! Don’t forget to turn your grates over for an ever better sear!

Had my MasterBuilt for awhile and prolly have about 75-100 cooks on it and you don’t have to wait that long to have the coals light. This thing is very efficient and I close the doors on mine after just a couple minutes usually and it does perfect. Now I don’t put the meat on right away, I let it burn a little, then put on my meat after I make sure I have the right kind of smoke. I also stagger the wood chunks in the hopper. I think B&B Briquettes work the best in this cooker (big orange bag) but Lump does great as well. I usually place 18-20 briquettes in then add a couple wood chunks then keep repeating that method.

I was interested, but if someone is going to get this style.. spring for the 1050 model Would be nice if they revised the 560 to be like the 1050

Steaks look good. Did you steal a tray from Franklin BBQ? 😂

So. How is it that the whole stack of charcoal doesn't just burn?

Please tell me how you got the Franklin tray

If you flip the grates over they say “sear” and are wider for better contact

Anyone know if the probe inputs will accept other probe brands?

Why do you throw them on the grill?

I love the functionality but I'm worried about durability.

You had the grill grates set to smoke not sear.

Should have seared it on the logo

Anyone else notice the grill thermometer at 5:25

I did not see if you flipped the grills from "smoke" side to "grill" side? oh never mind you did not flip the grills.

Dude back of the grill can be flipped over says seer on it…and smoke on the other

Flip the grates to the sear side next time

You didn’t say what temperature you had your smoker set up that’s the most important thing

Music too loud, can't hear you.

He had me until he started slamming the meat on the grill. Meat needs to be handled very delicately and with respect:)

Grill grates wrong bro

Great video Cheeky. I'm very disappointed with the 560 in that it imparts very little charcoal flavor if you are not reverse searing. Even then, it's minimal. You referred to it as subtle smoke flavor, I call it almost none. Burgers or anything grilled at a higher temp have no charcoal flavor at all. For me, it's back to the trusty Weber Kettle. If you love charcoal taste- This grill is a waste of 500.00 dollars

turn down your background music can barely hear what your saying

Pro Tip: Eat more red meat.

over cooked

Lose the stupid music
