Masterbuilt 30-Inch Digital Electric Smoker (window and legs) at a glance

What we like

  • Digital panel for time and temperature, with the side wood-chip loader and a viewing window
  • 710 sq in on four racks, enough for a family cook, per the maker
  • Costs less than the Wi-Fi version of the same size

Trade-offs

  • No Wi-Fi or app, and the page doesn't mention an included meat probe
  • Up to 275°F only, and a one-year warranty
  • Masterbuilt's own 30-inch listings are inconsistent on capacity, so don't plan a cook around the chicken or butt counts
Best for
Beginners on a budget who want a simple, set-the-dial smoker.
Skip it if
You want remote monitoring or a built-in probe.
  • Cooking space: 710 sq in
  • Racks: 4 chrome-coated
  • Max temperature: 275°F
  • Warranty: 1 year

    Best Electric Smokers

    The same 710 sq in and 275°F ceiling as the Wi-Fi model, with a digital panel, side chip loader and viewing window, but no app. It's the cheapest pick here and a pure beginner smoker. Masterbuilt's own listings disagree on how much food it holds, so plan around cooking area, not chicken counts.
