I'm working on building open source control firmware that runs on the Masterbuilt Gravity series electronically controlled charcoal smokers.

The smoker hardware itself is pretty good, but like most IoT devices, the firmware and app sucked. So I reverse engineered the whole control PCB, and have been rebuilding new open source firmware from scratch. All the basic functionality is working now with a fully local control web app. Plus an Andoid app, and Home Assistant integration.

Currently working on interface refinements, and some more advanced control sequencing features.

I wrote up all the reverse engineering details in a blog post here: https://www.prbs23.com/blog/posts/reverse-engineering-gravit...
