Anyone using rib racks of any kind? I thought about buying a couple, but wasn't sure if the ribs will turn out good cooked standing up. If so did they turn out as good as if they were laying flat?
Thanks Paul! I can only get three on laying down. I would like to cook for a family reunion in July. I wounder how many I wound need to cook for about 35 people? 15 or so?

I also cook both ways. When room permits I lay flat, when I am cooking a lot more I stand them up in rib racks. Never paid attention to any differences, they always turn out good.
I prefer flat if I am doing a small cook (picks up all the seasoning from my grates), but the quality does not suffer using a rack. Sometimes, I just use the rack (and cut a couple of slabs in half to fill the rack) just so I can put a pan underneath and minimize the mess. I use the Weber original.
I bought a cheap rack from Home Depot when I was doing a bunch of ribs on my gasser. Not sure I would need it now for the WSM, but I still have it if I do.
