4 ribs will have to be really trimmed down to fit on each rack, which I don't mind as the rib meat can be used for something else. The rack will fold on each other or not get as even a coat. The other alternative is more grates than the two provided.

You guys convinced me on the Weber Smokey Mountain. I went with the 22.5-inch size.

Sears had it on "sale" for $315- but because they provide it through a 3rd-party vendor, they did not offer any kind of ship-to-store option. Shipping added an additional $125-!!!

However, because of what I learned in this thread, I marched over to Lowes and asked them to price match, and THEY DID! I got if for the Sears price of $315- instead of the Lowes price of $399- plus Lowes has a free ship-to-store option. (Lowes would not do the price match + 10% because the smoker is considered a special order item since they don't stock it in the store, but I'm not going to quibble -- I feel like a saved a Benjamin+.)

Thanks for everyone's input here!

I was actually being a little sarcastic/tongue in check. I will say though, that I have used them on trimmed spares. Not the best, but it can be done.

I'll have to look around and see if I can find pictures of the racks I had made for a smoker I got rid of.

I think it would be great for baby backs. On my last smoke, I did 3 baby backs and 3 spares at the same time. I rolled up the baby backs and used a toothpick to hold them in place. I think my preference would be to get a rack like you pictured though in the future. If there was one built wide enough apart for spares, that would be awesome.

There are a couple more on amazon. I am sure someone out there has rigged them one as well.

Good move and choice. This smoker is so easy to use. Stock up on quality charcoal and wood chunks. I bought half a pallet and have been working through that, but I use the smoker more often than most around our parts.
