I forget how big the MES 30 racks are, but as long as you have an inch on all sides or about 2" on two sides your air flow shouldn't be a problem. I believe a 9" X 11" pan would be OK on a rack or two.

Just measured a shelf and it is 12x15 - so I've got the clearance you suggested. When you cook your prime rib and use a foil pan, do you use a shallow pan or a deep dish pan? What I'm wondering about is with a deep dish pan, the roast would sit down in the pan. Could smoke get to the bottom side or do you place it above the sides? Sorry about the basic questions, but I'd prefer not waste a cut of meat developing the techniques.
Again, thanks for your help

The ones I use have sides about 1 1/2" high.
The meat gets plenty of Smoke, and the wire rack allows the Smoke to even get underneath the meat.

It looks like this:

Thanks for the picture, Bear. Nice setup you got there - plenty of room and plenty of heat.

Once again, thanks.
