Good Smoker for Ribs
Posted on 9/9/15 at 9:03 am

I currently have a BGE. I love it. Its great for everything except ribs.
For ribs, whether baby back or St Louis, I am forced to either cut them or bend them around to make them fit on the BGE. This severely limits the amount I can cook at any given time. So, I rarely cook ribs because of this.
I'd love to find a smoker that has rib racks that is more conducive to cooking multiple slabs of ribs or perhaps a product that allows for more effective utilization of the space on my BGE. It doesn't matter to me if its gas, electric, or charcoal.

get a ribrack dude. any round smoker except a 22" WSM is gonna need a rack to do multiple slabs. even the 22" WSM would need a rack if your trying to do 4+ racks
the only thing your going to be able to lay multiple racks flat in is a big offset, etc

Pit Barrel Cooker. Can do 8 racks at once.

I have that exact same rack. Baby backs have to be bent to allow for the lid to shut. I can only get two or three racks in there without cutting them to fit. Also, to glaze them, I lay them flat on the grill and coat them in sauce. Trying that with multiple slabs means you have to do it in batches.

what size BGE do you have?
Posted on 9/9/15 at 9:29 am to Aubie Spr96
I have a rack with 6 slots. I typically cut 3 racks in half and it fits just fine in my Large BGE.

This is one reason I like the Primos XL oval design.

Is there a reason you don't like to roll them like an American?
I see now that the issue is saucing them. For the record, I've never had difficulty saucing them with this method, but I could see why you might prefer a different configuration. On a Primo, the oval design allows for much more flexibility. Perhaps you would be happy with that.
