ABT vice?

[cavman]

Hi, so my smoker is a mini WSM so grill real estate in a cook is at a premium. I know ABT's should be smoked, and they are better when they are. No argument here, but I can make 24 at a time in 20 min. In my WalMart turbo convection oven and they are still really good and i can pre make a couple batches before company comes. Anyone else do anything like this? I use chive & onion cream cheese, pork little smokies, a sprinkle of dry rub and half a strip of bacon length ways.

I know, bacon is around it. A girlfriend wrapped those, and they did leak cream cheese.

I like cooking them on my ribolator if I need a lot. Good excuse to by a 22.5 kettle or WSM.

How many grates do you have in your mini ?? I get more than 24 on three grates in mine ... I prefer the smoker.. that long SLOW cook softens that pepper up so nice... oh.. not to mention SMOKE ...

I have 2 grates in the mini. How did you fit a third? It is so short between the 2?

I made my own ... but I also use stock grates as well...

I use 1/2" long pop rivets instead of bolts... click on pick to enlarge.. you can see them sticking out... One rack down on the bottom ring and two sets of pop rivets

I made a new pot since this one and I can get 4 racks in it with still plenty of room for the ABT's... That's what it's kinda disigned for is ABT's ... So I can do a boat load of them at one time ...

Hope pics helped ...
