After much procrastination, I finally did another small mod I've been thinking about for a while. I put some legs on my lower grate so that I could sit it on top of my top grate. The bottom line is I want to be able to access some foods easier, namely ribs and chicken thighs. The lower grate is too hot where it's mounted currently and it's too hard to get to. Anyway just by turning the nuts here I can adjust the height of the grate. But if cooking half racks of babyback ribs, which I did the other day, easy enough to lay three ribs out without crowding them . Nope that this isnt attached it just sits there
Even wrapped, being able to lay them flat is important to getting the stuff you put in the foil onto the top of the rib for a caramelized coating, and not having it run off .
And even cheaper way to do this is to drill some holes just underneath the The top rack and run some 1/8 "rods across the inside of the smoker and set the lower rack on that. Saw this in the mods file on the virtual Weber bullet. Thats actually an excellent idea and then just plug the holes with little bolts when you're not using it there of it bothers you
