im gonna do some ribs this weekend. im considering getting a rib rack. when i wrap the ribs in tin foil and pour in some apple juice, is it ok to stand the ribs back up, or is all the juice going to pour out?

I always remove the rack and lay them down when I foil. Sometimes I have to lay the ribs over each other to make room, but I figure the juices stay on the meat longer when laying horizonal.
Hope this helps

Wrapping ribs has kept me from buying the rib racks. I would say it would be a good guess that it leak out if tilted up in a rack.
