Help, too many ribs for the uds

[timberjet]

Has anyone McGuyvered up anything to smoke vertical ribs at the last minute because they didn't have access to a box store to buy a proper rib rack. I have another while of work to do and have no time to get something to fit these 6 racks of ribs on the 22 inch UDS. Maybe skewers or Bailing wire?

Skewers will work.  You have to bend the ribs so they will stand up on their side - kind of an S pattern.  You may have to flip them to make sure they cook evenly, but it will work.

Good luck, 

Bill

I have used skewers make a spiral out of my ribs in the past.  Just coil them up and put two skewers through per rack.  Make sure the rack never coils back so it touches itself and you are good to go.  I would post a pic but can't yet, too new.
