For those who use rib racks, do you change your cooking time & temp? Do the ribs cook any different or is it a space saving thing?
 
Space saving for me - not that I use those things often. I've learned to roll the racks and they cook well that way and save space too.
 
I first bought my racks as a space saver due to some private catering I was asked to do. I pretty much stick to the 3-2-1 method of cooking ribs. The three hours they spend on the racks I think helps them more than anything. I noticed it prevents the hot spots from turning them to dark. As Arlin said I have also rolled them as well and that worked pretty good too.
 
Do you rotate the ribs on the racks? (turn them over)
 
No rotate here

Space saver, especially in the WSM

I also use 2 racks (only cook BB's here) so they don't "droop" on the ends.

I need the straight, so they wrap in foil nicely
 
I use them as a space saver. Fully loaded they take about 8 hours cooking time and I rotate them around every 1 1/2 hours. Mine will fit 48 slabs in a Lang 84. The most I've cooked was 71, I had rib's everywhere.

Simply a space saver for me. Doesn't change cook times.
