Are these too close????
Just wondering if these are too close together? I was thinking they would be ok, just probably have no bark by where they touch. Any input would be appreciated......Wouldn't be a problem if i had a dome lid but I'm still trying to find one. Thanks in advance

As they cook they will shrink. I would suggest flipping them and moving them around as they do.

My rule is for them to not touch each other or the sides of the smoker to ensure smoke and air hits all surface area.

I think 3 pieces of that size is better for the airflow and what BigJim said.

Prop them up on their sides and it will give them more room.

To give you an idea of what I don't think is too close together:
190lbs of pork butts in a Lang 60. One of our tastiest cooks!

Wow, thats a lot of meat in one cooker!!! And one of the tastiest cooks too. I saw someone else on here that had their ribs kind of overlapping in their smoker, so I'm not too sure about air space is needed all the around each piece of meat...

Papa Payne - The only drawback is it will take longer and no smoke will penatrate where the meat touches.

I believe that because the meat was packed in so close, it took additional time to get to the wrapping temp, and even more time to get to finishing temp. The low and slow effect was amplified, and it was perfectly smoked and the texture was amazing.
