Stacking ribs?

[J. Garrett]

I have a 18.5 WSM and just bought a rib rack that holds four slabs. I use the 2-2-1 method for cooking my BBs and was wondering if it would hurt anything to stack the ribs on top of one another during the foil phase so I can get them all on the top rack? Will stacking the affect temps?

I have stacked foiled ribs before. It turned out fine.

i always stack foiled ribs. I have the 18.5 WSM and i make 3 racks split in half. I use both racks for cooking them. When it comes time to foil i foil them all and stack them on the top rack. 2-2-1 seems a bit long for BB. I always do 2-1-1 for baby backs and 3-2-1 for Spares.

I will have to try stacking!!

I can see no reason why stacking would affect anything. Stack away

Jamie stacks un-foiled ribs on the kettle.

Do you mean stacking, then foiling, or do you mean foiling them separately, then stacking? I do the later when I foil (which is not often). I'm sure the former would also work, but they probably wouldn't be as pretty.
