How many racks of ribs will this hold?

I don't have this rib-rack, but I've cooked a lot of ribs over the years, and they're bigger than you think. I agree with Vicki D. Graziano and say "one." Good luck and good eatin' Van Taylor.

If you cut the racks in half, it will hold two full racks and half of a third. Full racks don't do too well in this rack. They're too long and tend to droop a lot.This rack is great for for pork butts, chickens, and turkey breasts when inverted from the position shown in the picture, though. It works well for ribs, but I just bought a rig from the Ceramic Grill Store that works way better and can do 4 full racks concurrently. I'd recommend that setup if it's ribs you're after, but it's not cheap; about $225 for everything you need.

I wish the rack was a little wider and higher so the ribs did flop around and also make sure the rib aren't to long so you can close the door. other than that it is ok 3.5 rating and I would buy it again

It does hold five sets on each row but I hang them and it still fits the same amount 20 pairs per rack. Hang the heel on the bars it looks better fits and they better

the inside of the cooking pot is 8.5 inches across and 6.5 deep. I could put in a whole rack of spare ribs and still have room

My husband hasn't made any chicken quarters yet but he has smoked 8 racks of ribs at a time, but he thinks he can possibly smoke 12 with a slight overlapping. I hope this helps. Enjoy your party.

You should Google "WSM 18.5" Images. That should give you the answer you are looking for. FWIW, I would not recommend this rib rack. I do have it, and I do not like it very much.

Yes, this roaster would have plenty of room for a 5-6# roast. I have loaded it with a 4# deer roast and tons of vegetables and there was lots of room to spare. I've also cooked 2 racks of ribs and it was roomy enough. I love this thing.

I have placed a 12lb turkey and a 10lb ham on one rack and it worked just fine. I don't see you over loading the racks while leaving air space around the meat for smoke. I hope you enjoy yours as much as me and my family has enjoyed ours.

Depending on the size of the ribs, you will need to cut them in half. Try using a rib rack for the grill or smoker.

I've never tried a rack of ribs and I have the Q220, we love the grill and it's the best one we've ever had. I think you could reduce the temp and do the ribs. I have maintained a consistent temp with the on board thermometer. Good luck.

It depends on the size, but this should be sturdy enough to hold a rib roast. Amazon also sells a non-adjustable rack that is a lot more robust that will pretty much hold any large heavy roast, turkey etc. So if you have any doubt about the size and weight I'd go to the hardier rack. We own both.

I use these to store three suits (in each one). I don't think it will handle 5, unless they are wire hangers and thin garments.

Yes, you can fit that many. We have two racks side by side and have more skillets than any one kitchen should ever have. We made sure it was fastened into a stud because we knew we'd be putting some weight on them. If you hang them in the right order, they'll sort of nest in each other--making ample room, and the material of the pot rack is really sturdy as are the hooks. Just get an extra set of the hooks. Forgot to mention that ours hang freely since the rack is attached to the lower edge of an overhang, but I think the nesting effect would still work even if there were a wall behind them. Hope this helps.

A least 8 pots will easily hang from this rack. You also have room for a least 4 more on the top. This rack is very sturdy just be sure to distribute weight evenly.I've had mine 2 months and have no regrets.

There is 8 racks in the box, that means you can make 4 floors with these racks, and each floor can hold 5skewers, so you can have 20skewers in your kabob house. ;)

The 15 inch dimension is between the handles, lengthwise. Thus the width of the slots is approximately two inches. A rack of pork ribs, St. Louis cut, fits just fine, including the curve of the ribs. I did five racks on one occasion (about 13 pounds of pork) and turned the racks about half way through a six hour cooking time. This on a Weber Kettle, with an average of 15 pieces of charcoal going at all times for a sustained temp of 200 to 250 F. Hope this helps.

I would not. It is a great rack and pretty sturdy but adding as many as 24 more bottles of wine might put too much weight on the frame. You might wind up crying over spilled wine...

I limit myself to the 35-40 pound range. Each bag has several points that attach to the rack, but only one on the rail locks into place. After some bumps the other two might shake off your rack.
