The reason I ask is that I'm not a rib rack guy (and I get by just fine with the room I've got)- in my head I think that the racks that hold 3 or 4 slabs keep the ribs too close together and they cook uneavenly. But I like the idea of being able to load more meat in my smoker. And it looks like those bars are spaced wide enough to allow for both more meat and a more even cook. I dunno, it seems like I'm looking at something that (A) looks pretty cool, (B) may or may not be beneficial to a very large rib cook and (C) I don't REALLY need..........sold, right? As for the direction of the bars, that's entirely over my head (might need 2). And another thing...if I'm wrong about the way I feel about traditional store bought rib racks, then my main reason for pondering this is in the chitter. Anyhow, if anyone has experience with one of these, let me know. Thanks.
