    Inaugural cook

    Wife knew something was up when I continued to invite people over to eat ribs. Then she realized I was trying to see how much ribs I could fit inside the 26 inch Kettle with Slow 'n Sear XL.

    I have two spares with the St.Louis cuts trimmed out and the trimmings, and one loin back set of ribs.

    Looking good, Jerod (and there might still be room for a small kitchen sink) ...

      You can get more ribs on there.😋 The Hovergrill would double your capacity.👌

          I'm pretty sure I got the weber too. Loin backs are a no go, spacing too small. I have the loin back just resting on the back end not in between any bars.

          I think you still have some untapped potential there. I stole the idea from David Parrish , but I rolled St. Louis racks into a circle shape and fastened with metal skewers and was able to easily fit 3 in a 22" with SnS. Pretty sure I could have got one more rack in there if I had to.

            It's a great technique. I stole it from someone myself

            Jerod Broussard it's good to see that BIG kettle in action!

              I have used the "Circle Shape" skewered with bamboo back in the day and it always worked quite well. And I stole it from a friend who stole it from a friend who stole it...

              Jerod Broussard - fine looking ribs and that Big Weber is earning its keep! Kudos to ya!

                How about attaching racks together end to end, and then making one long coil. I bet you could get even more in either Weber. Of course, inverting the long coil might not be too much fun...

                  I'm pretty sure I'll be cutting racks before I start coiling.

                    Looking good Jerod Broussard! I'm guessing that the "trimmings" are your treats.

                    Be sure to flip them top to bottom at least once, and as often as every hour. Temps as you know rise a bit once you get a few inches above the food grate.
