I did cook ribs entirely in the roaster as a trial. As you would expect, they got very tender. If I used it again for ribs I would smoke them first and use this instead of wrapping
but wrapping is actually easier and less to clean up. Works great for bread.

Did you cook the spare ribs entirely in the BK Rib Roaster? The one youtube review had 3 baby back racks smoking for two hours flat on a pellet grill (no info on temerature) and then one hour in the BK Rib Roaster, followed by another 15 minutes back on the grill. Per the video, the racks were falling apart after one hour in the roaster, permitting the cook to pop the rib bones out for a boneless rib meat sandwich. Looked pretty good.

Inside in the oven. It is made to be used outdoors but it is good for what I want inside.

Made spare ribs in it, just curious. Took 50 minutes. They were done well but needed a LOT of sauce, really missed the smoke! Won't do that again but will use it in place of wrapping after being on a smoker.
Made a modified Forkish bread, half the double fed sweet levain recipe, but substituted in King Arthur white whole wheat for 1/3 of the flour. Proofed it overnight in the fridge in a large pullman pan with parchment underneath, then just lifted it out by the paper and set in the cooker for the oven, easy. Happy with how it came out.
I like this shape better than a boule for most things, so this will be my go to bread baker for most things.

You could totally use that instead of wrapping ribs. I like it, that is a versatile tool to have in the arsenal.

I won't be filling it! Normal size loaves, the extra size shouldn't matter. Same as the do's that I use. I don't mean it to be a replacement for a pullman pan.

That's a HUGE loaf, though. You're likely looking a a 3-4lb dough to fill it.

That looks kinda cool. I might have to get one for bread. As you say, it’s a lot less expensive than a bread baker of that size. Heavy, though!

I bet a frozen loaf of bread dough will fit nicely.
Fresh bread, butter, and PBR.
Thank you.
