Master Forge Brand

Grilling Company

Master Forge is a mysterious company. It specializes in charcoal and gas grills. Currently, they are manufactured by Sagittarius Sporting Goods headquarters in Taiwan and are only sold at Lowe’s.

Amazon Alternatives

Because the Master Forge is available only in Lowe’s, their electric smokers aren’t accessible for everyone. For this reason, after my Master Forge electric smoker review I will link an electric smoker from another brand that is sold on Amazon. It is identical to the Master Forge one and has all of the same features and similar design.

Classic Design

When purchasing this Master Forge electric smoker make sure you understand that it doesn’t have a glass window. This means you won’t be able to peek through and check-on your food. It has a double-wall firebox and high-temperature single door. Above the door, there is a digital LED screen that shows the temperature and cooking time.

Roomy Interior

You are probably wondering how much food this smoker can fit. Its full capacity is 730 square inches of cooking space. It is spread between four chrome-coated cooking grids. The bottom is reserved for the water and grease tray.

Maximum Temperature

The Master Forge electric smoker has a 1200 watt heating element that can produce quick and also accurate temperature. It takes him about 20 minutes to go from 50 to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. That is the maximum temperature that is also recommended to use in the manual.

Side Wood Loading System

The manual recommends using hickory chips with this electric smoker. Just so you don’t have to open the smoker’s door and lose the temperature and heat, Master Forge thought of making side wood chip loading system.

Why Buy This Smoker?

  • Rear wheels for mobility
  • LED temperature and time screen
  • Even and consistent smoking at 275F max.
  • Side doors for wood chips
  • Integrated accurate thermometer

Master Forge Electric Smoker Parts

All of the necessary smoking parts like cooking grids or racks, wood chip trays, thermometer, water, and drip trays, come with the purchase of Master Forge Electric Smoker. If you remember from the beginning, I stated that Master Forge is not a manufacturer so they don’t provide replacement parts for electric smokers. However, on Amazon, you can look up general electric smoker parts and accessories that will fit most smokers. You can also check for Masterbuilt replacement parts that will fit Master Forge electric smoker as well since they are identical products.

Master Forge Electric Smoker Manual

If you purchase the Masterbuilt electric smoker that I linked above, you will get a user’s manual. In there they explain step-by-step how to set up the smoker and how to use it. I recommend also reading it upon the smoker’s arrival and check if all of the parts were delivered. Masterbuilt’s manual that is similar to that of Master Forge’s can be checked out also online.

Conclusion: Do You Need Master Forge Electric Smoker?

Since not everyone has an opportunity to go into Lowe’s and purchase Master Forge electric smoker, I will say no. However, don’t hesitate to look into the alternative model from Masterbuilt which is a great outdoor living equipment brand. The difference is in the design; Masterbuilt 20075315 Front Controller Smoker has a window door so you can peek into the smoker to check on your food at any time.

I wrote another article dedicated only to a small electric smoker from the brand I mentioned earlier.
