    Any cross contamination issues doing chicken and pork on a WSM?

    I planned on doing two beer butt chickens and some baby backs for the super bowl. Is there a certain way I should arrange the meat in the smoker with ribs on top grate and chicken on bottom? I'm really just looking for two cooking items I can do at a similar temp and cooking time and these...
