We will now be producing Rib Racks for the Model 2 and Model 3 smokers. As always....there will be more to come!
Thanks,

Why'd the "Little Guy" get left out of the party? A rack would be great! On the lowest shelf, I'd be able to cut two racks of spares in half, and stack them 4 across (I'm pretty sure). Now, I can only fit 1 1/2 racks in using 3 shelves.
-
I will ask Steve what the plans are for the little brother. I use rib hooks for my #1 hanging off the highest rack.
Thanks,
-
Thanks Ben! Can't leave the little guy out! There was a post about the rib hooks earlier; we'd love to hear your feedback on them!
-
Talked to Steve and the rib racks for the #1 and #2 are already in process. I will post when they are available for sale on the web site.
Thanks,
Ben

Nice, Ben! That's why you guys are #1!!
-
I agree!1 You guys are great and I will buy a rib rack for the #2 as son as available.
-
So what would the advantage be for using the rib racks over the regular shelving in a #3?
-
Etex.....I have a nephew that has one for his Weber smoker and he could cook twice as many ribs as I could. Plus one rack is easier to clean than laying ribs on three or four racks. Because I have a model 2, I have to cut mine in half.....so I use many more shelves. Wish I now would have bought the 3. But maybe after a year, I will just get the big daddy.

Thanks 1959. I thought space might be the reason, but wondered if there were any other advantages. I have the #3 and normally would not put more than a couple of racks in, so I am probably o.k. The #3 is nice. Have not filled it up yet. Still experimenting with the different items. Have done ribs, butts in the last few weeks. Getting both knees replaced next week and am stocking the freezer. Did as 12 lb brisket yesterday, have a 8 lb butt on now, have chicken and ribs in the waiting line. Thanks for your response.

Good luck with the knees, Tex! At least you'll eat well while you're laid-up! ;D
-
Thanks Divot. Not sure if I will have the appetite to eat a lot of it for a while. Just trying to make it easier on the Mrs.

Good luck to you too, John! Just a thought, but it's probably from lifting those 200 lb cats you catch! ;)

Thanks Puddle. I will let you know how it went. I have it on the 24th. After a few days of recuperating and coming home hopefully I will have something positive to report. Had ortho surgery on both, but it was like using fix a flat. Worked good for a while but did not fix the problem.
-
when will the rib racks for the #2 be available... ?
-
Model #2 rib racks are now available on smokin-it.com. Thanks for your patience.
-
How about the Little Guy, Ben? ;)

How did the knee replacement go? I'm 38 but can feel Father Time stalking me sometimes with minor and subtle pains. My mother had one knee done and 6 months later the next. The first was painful but atypically good with minimal bruising swelling and so on. The second knee went more normal and tons of pain, swelling, etc. Said if the knees were in reverse order she'd never have done the other knee. Also said there'd be grown men, ex marines, crying during physical therapy. E-gad!!!
That said, can't complain too much about getting old because many don't get to experience it... And it sure beats the alternative.
Hope it went well.
