This GrillGun is so much fun and makes lighting a fire super simple!!! If you are looking for your very own GrillGun head over to grillblazer.com/ and use my promo code "deadbrokebbq" to save yourself 10%!!
Surprised no one has mentioned it yet, but the temp swings are most likely due to when the wood chunks catch fire in the hopper. I see it all the time... especially on my Weber when I use my Slow & Sear.... when hot coals reach the wood chunks they catch fire... pushes temp up until flame dies out.
Hahahah I just saw you posted the same video at the same time!?!?! Great minds think a like bro!! Thanks for watching bro and I will call you before I post the next video!! hahaha
@@DeadBrokeBBQ If you can get them, B&B Char logs work really well on slower cooks. Part of the temp swing can be that in the hopper the fuel source in there may have like a "log jam" situation going on. If you have ever heard something coming from it sounding like a "drop", that usually means it just cleared. I have seen spikes come when the drop occurs. Not seeing this much with the B&B Char logs on lower temp cooks, and not really at all with briquettes.
I will certainly see if I can pick some of those up!! I have a hard time getting much B&B up here is Wisconsin. There is a hardware store that carries them but they go fast! Seems like every time I stop there they are sold out!!! hahaha Again another great nugget of info bro!!
Ya Marco it is time I move to the middle rack moving forward for sure! I decided on low n slow to also use briquettes and hoping that will calm this cooker down some!! Thanks for commenting and leaving this tip for others to read also!!
I see you placed the ribs on the bottom rack; not on the second rack. You don't feel the bottom racks cause too much heat on meats (in general), whereas on the second rack, the heat circulates around the meat, evens it out more? Just asking...
Thanks for watching Joe and great question! I have done it both ways bro! IMO no real right or wrong way. On this cook I did want them to get done a little faster so being on those cast grates they hold more radiant heat which will speed up the cooking process some!! On this short rib cook those bones are thick and protect the meat pretty decent, but I did have a brisket get a little crispy on that bottom rack once but I had some type of huge temp spike for about an hour that I never noticed. Again good question and if you feel more comfortable with it on the middle rack, not a single thing wrong with do it that way! I appreciate you leaving a comment!!
Nice looking beef ribs Ricer! The temp swings on that MB seem like they can be a bit extreme... but.. it is all about learning the mood of your new cookers... part of the fun of BBQ. Take care.
I agree completely Johnny, I might just run briquettes on the low n slow cooks and see how it runs. They still turned out great but glad I checked my Signals when I did!! Have a great week bro!!
Great job as alway!..I noticed most of the guys are using either briquettes or char logs on the 560 fb page...Really don't hear much on temp spikes..Great video..I'm sure the ribs were great!
Ya I might have to get away from the lump on the low n slow cooks!!! Yes these beefers turned out fantastic!! Like always Keith, I appreciate you watching bro!!
I know all about those temp swings on the Masterbuilt, but at lower temps it seems to really behave itself. I'm still learning mine. Those beef ribs looked perfect! Nice smoke ring and super juicy!
Ya this rig on low n slow cooks has been a roller coaster for me! Plus I am going to use briquettes on longer cooks also. I love using lump but it might just be getting so hot that even if the fan stops the temp keep rising!??!! Thanks Rus and these did turn out pretty dang good!! Like always thanks for watching and I hope you stay safe down there!!
Beef ribs are some of the best things to smoke! I have a triple flame lighter I got a couple years ago, I used to use it for all my starts, but since started with tumbleweeds. I see you took out a mortgage for your charcoal, lol! Cheers brother, great vid! Your editing keeps getting better and I am slacking at growing my editing noticing yours. Gotta put in some work, got aggravated trying to get animated lower thirds into Sony Vegas.
Hey thanks Rob! Ya I keep pushing for perfection! I am almost getting where I like the edits so now I am going to start to look at location! I had the concrete guy come over today to price out a pad for the new outdoor studio!! ugh hahaha Have a great week bro!!
All good and we can't catch them all!!!! Thank you for the vent cover Tom, I really appreciate it!!! Jake and I had a lot of fun doing these Mods to the 560!! Always happy to give you a shout out brother!!!
Ya I agree bro! I am switching to briquettes on my low n slow cooks with the Masterbuilt moving forward. More consistent for sure! Thanks for watching and have a great day bud!!
I don't know just thinking lol which is a dangerous thing for me lol! By the way loved the little guy matching wits with you lol mines 24 now and I usually lose lmao! Have a good day bro!
So in Wisconsin, I am finding it challenging to find Beef plate ribs, as when I am in Texas I find no problem, everywhere has them including Walmart. But here in WI, I find it challenging, sometimes Costco gets them in, but have you found anywhere else that carries them that we might have here in SouthEast WI?
Hi Oscar---yes it is not an easy find but I can get them at a few local bigger butcher shops but if you go to Sam's Club and ask them you should be able to get a package of 2 racks in a pack , Just ask them not to cut them up!! But there are a lot of decent butchers down in the Southeast so call around and worse case scenario they special order them. Here in Wisconsin they are mostly braised in a pan or boiled and that is insanely wrong!! hahaha Thanks for watching and good luck bro!!
Jeff. Good stuff brother. Thanks for the Vid shout out. I love Beef ribs and the Masterbuilt and am looking forward to talking about both when I come on your show. Thanks, brother!
You bet Tommy!! You did a great job on your Mod video some I wanted to share that with my viewers! Ya we can chat about the Masterbuilt Gravity Series for sure!! Have a great week and thanks for watching!!
Ya I just stopped using it and sold it to my neighbor. Nice pit but I had so many temp issues with mine. Thanks for watching and leaving that bit of advice in the comments for others to read!
Strange temp variations but at least you know how to recover. Those beefers look fantastic Ricer! Haha I’m spitting facts, classic! Awesome job brother!
Hahaha ya my oldest was on fire with his comments after we finished the cook!! Spitting facts is hilarious!!! ha ha Like always bro, thanks for watching!! Talk to you soon!
At first I thought the same thing but 30 mins after I turned it down then it hit those chunks and it start to smoke and I could tell it was those 3 chunks. I was told that it might have been a damning affect. Where the lump got packed and after it released and dropped it might have ignited a bunch all at once. But I decided I am going to run briquettes when I low n slow it to see if it will run more consistent?!?! We will see!! Thanks for watching Dash and have a great week!
Thanks Rob!! These turned out pretty dang good even if the bark was a little lighter that i usually strive for but they weren't missing any flavor that is for sure!! Have a great week bro and I appreciate you watching!
Like the upgrades to that fuel hog! 👍 Tom is the Man! With the marbling in those ribs was Braising really necessary? It kills the bark that you were trying to achieve. But.......That's just Me......I'm sure it's awesome! 👍
Ya I agree Ken! When I do beef ribs and want to braise them up with some wine I really try to push that bark to a meteor look a like because I know the braising process is going to wash it out a bit. Now the taste the Cabinet adds is addicting though!!! ha ha I don't do them like this all the time but when I do people seem to like them even more, I hope it ain't from the alcohol !!!???!!! ha ha Then next video on my Smoke Daddy I do a couple racks of beefers also but I only got 6 out of 8 good bones. Someone rushed the spritz "not mentioning names" but I am the guy running the cooker so can guess pretty easily who wasn't paying attention!! ha ha Have a great week bro and thanks for watching!
Thanks brother! It is a decent cooker and the concept is great!! Just needs a little more tweaking and Masterbuilt will have a fantastic cooker! Thanks for watching and the weekend is almost here!
Yes for the most past I am very happy with the Masterbuilt gravity fed!! I would say it is a good purchase!! It grills like a beast!!! Thanks for watching Peter!!!
Well I have only used briquettes a couple times but I am going to start using them on my low n slow cooks to see if that helps these temp swings some. I like the Masterbuilt for a grill but been a struggle with the low n slow cooks to say the least! ha ha Thanks for watching and have a fantastic week!
I wouldn't even consider purchasing another Masterbuilt brand. The Masterbuilt has quality issues that have been around for several years and rather than work to eliminate the issue, they choose to "grease the squeaky wheel". The biggest problem by far, is now "due to covid" you can't talk to anyone when you call for tech support. You have to submit an online form and someone contacts you via email, and It seems that there could possibly be a language barrier. #MasterbuiltIsJunk
Hi Dewayne! I like the gravity as a grill but it certainly acts up on my low n slow cooks!! But it is easy for the most part to work around. I think this cooker is a great idea and I hope others follow with their own version! Thanks for leaving a comment and this information so others can see the process just incase they also have issue! Have a great week!

Hahahah I just saw you posted the same video at the same time!?!?! Great minds think a like bro!! Thanks for watching bro and I will call you before I post the next video!! hahaha
Try using briquettes instead of lump. Should help with the temp swings
Certainly going to give that a try moving forward Amos! Thanks for watching and the great advice!

@@DeadBrokeBBQ yeah here with Ace Hardware I grab the Char logs whenever they have them :)
Have you tried using the middle grates on your slower cooks? on my 1050 I find middle rack cooking get a more even temp.
Ya Marco it is time I move to the middle rack moving forward for sure! I decided on low n slow to also use briquettes and hoping that will calm this cooker down some!! Thanks for commenting and leaving this tip for others to read also!!
Hey Ricer great looking Beefers! "I don't squeeze my meat" cracks me up everytime. 😃😃
Ha ha thanks Bimp!! You know me well, I ain’t squeezing any meat especially my own!! Ha ha Have a great week bro!

Hahahaha Ya the GrillGun is a toy for the big boy for sure!! haha Thanks for watching and have a great week!!
Love me some short ribs. Great video and thank you for trying us out. Cheers
Oh ya your rub is great and I hope you continued success with it!! You got a good BBQ balance in that shaker!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ thank you so much bro.
Not sure how I missed this..... Ribs look awesome! Thanks for the shout out Jeff!
All good and we can't catch them all!!!! Thank you for the vent cover Tom, I really appreciate it!!! Jake and I had a lot of fun doing these Mods to the 560!! Always happy to give you a shout out brother!!!
Thank for the knowledge. It was very much appreciated coming from a person that messed up beef ribs before
Glad I could help Jack! Beef ribs are awesome and just be patient and they will turn out great!! Thanks for watching!
Yum! Beef ribs, I made beef short ribs yesterday, so GOOD!
Awesome bro and they truly are my favorite BBQ but I hate the price you pay for them! Ha ha
Love beef dino ribs. It's always fun to play with a flame thrower!
Hahaha ya it sure is a blast!!! Thanks for watching bro! Have a great week!!
Dead Broke BBQ Thanks, you too!
Hey buddy looks guud! Lol I wonder if briquettes would stop the spikes? I've always had more spikes in all my smokers with lump.
Ya I agree bro! I am switching to briquettes on my low n slow cooks with the Masterbuilt moving forward. More consistent for sure! Thanks for watching and have a great day bud!!
I don't know just thinking lol which is a dangerous thing for me lol! By the way loved the little guy matching wits with you lol mines 24 now and I usually lose lmao! Have a good day bro!
Ya briquettes will work better for you. Great videos.....funny as always....luv ya man....keep 'em comin

I dropped a chunk of wood in the ash bin and it lit and my temperature climbed. I use wood chips instead now.
Ya I just stopped using it and sold it to my neighbor. Nice pit but I had so many temp issues with mine. Thanks for watching and leaving that bit of advice in the comments for others to read!
Great video! Yes the fat separator cup is awesome!
Thanks Mike!! Ya we save it for reheating just add little au jus and you are in business!! Thanks for watching bro and have a great week!
I am in Rice Lake Wi,, my 560 works even in 20 below. barley lol
Ha ha ya most cookers aren’t very happy to work at these temps but hey as long as they work right!!?? Thanks for watching!!
Strange temp variations but at least you know how to recover. Those beefers look fantastic Ricer! Haha I’m spitting facts, classic! Awesome job brother!
Hahaha ya my oldest was on fire with his comments after we finished the cook!! Spitting facts is hilarious!!! ha ha Like always bro, thanks for watching!! Talk to you soon!
A gun like that is good against weeds in the pavement as well.
That spoke might be where all of the wood chunks were. try spacing them out some next time? Oh and I beat you in the staring contest.
At first I thought the same thing but 30 mins after I turned it down then it hit those chunks and it start to smoke and I could tell it was those 3 chunks. I was told that it might have been a damning affect. Where the lump got packed and after it released and dropped it might have ignited a bunch all at once. But I decided I am going to run briquettes when I low n slow it to see if it will run more consistent?!?! We will see!! Thanks for watching Dash and have a great week!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ Ahh... maybe the solution would be to mix the lump and briquettes to help prevent that.
Nice Job Ricer! Congratulations on 11k
Thanks Mr Bookla!! I am thinking your grill grates should be there pretty soon brother! I know they shipped them out!
Nice Job! Looks Good.
Thanks Brad!! Beef ribs are so much fun to cook!! Have a great week bro!!
Great job Jeff. Those ribs looked awesome Brother!!
Thank you Geoff!!! I love smoked beef ribs!! I could seriously eat these weekly!! Have a great week and I appreciate you leaving a comment!
Hi, what are you spritzing them with?
I typically use just plain water. But if I am struggling to get a nice bark I will use a little apple juice to help darken it up. Thanks for watching.
Those ribs look amazing. Great work, Ricer!
Thanks Rob!! These turned out pretty dang good even if the bark was a little lighter that i usually strive for but they weren't missing any flavor that is for sure!! Have a great week bro and I appreciate you watching!

So I have seen some reviews on this Masterbilt and everything has been really positive. I think I am going to buy this grill. Great job on the ribs.
Yes for the most past I am very happy with the Masterbuilt gravity fed!! I would say it is a good purchase!! It grills like a beast!!! Thanks for watching Peter!!!
@@DeadBrokeBBQ how much time into a cook do you have to add more charcoal? Have you used regular charcoal besides the lump in your video? TIA!!!
Depends on the temp you are running at but it is not the most efficient cooker I have.
I like beef ribs better than pork. Looks good.
I agree!! Beef ribs are twice as good!! Well ok almost twice! hahaha Thanks for watching and have a great week!
Love your vids man
Thanks dude and I really appreciate that! I try to do my best on every one I do! Have a great weekend!
Great video Ricer! Curious as to what caused that temp spike. Maybe it got excited.
Haha ya Claude not sure why either but I am going to use briquettes on the low n slow cooks moving forward. Goofy!! Ha ha thanks for watching bro!
Awesome vid ricer
Thanks Beebs!!!! I hope you are having a great work week at the salt mine! Take care of that limp!! haha
Ribs looked so good bro. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Rome and your rub was awesome on these!! Great BBQ balance bro!!!!! Thanks for sending me a shaker!!! Have a great week!!
