Masterbuilt Dual Fuel Smoker Modifications
Mod 1: Using Side port
Side port is a very important part of a smoker because you can enter the wire temperature probe into the smoke chamber through it..

Mod 2: Using Side shelf
Side shelf prevents your time. It gives you extra surface to keep your carving board, utensils, wood chips, food, knife for utensils, carving board, tong etc..
Equipment:
Steps to follow:
- Get the collapsible side shelf.
- Drill hole on your left wall of the smoker at the same level.
- Fix the side shelf.
Mod 3: Using cast iron skillet and grill grate
I hope you already have an original wood chip pan. It could be better if you replace the original one with a quality pan.
I faced a lot of issues. It flared up a lot. So, I decided to take another cast iron skillet.
Also I am using a grill grate with a wood chip pan.
In this way you can prevent from flares up and you will get great smoke..
Equipment:
Steps to follow:
- Put the grill on the bottom of smoke chamber.
- Then place your cast iron wood chip pan over the grill.

# Masterbuilt pro dual fuel smoker temperature control.
Sometimes there is a problem in bringing the temperature below 275 and up to 225.
Maybe some kind of amendment you read in the forum. For example Bayou Classic Adjustable Regulator and Needle Valve.
But I would encourage you to take a little pain here because it is an incredibly easy way to control the temperature.
So, turn on your power button and burner. As soon as you rotate the knob from high to low, it doesn’t come on low flame.
So, what will you do to bring it into the slow flame? You just turn the knob from the bottom up and turn at 11 o’clock like shown in the image.
If you want to modify your pro dual fuel smoker with Bayou regulator and Needle Valve then go for it.
