burnt rib ends

FatMike

What is everyone doing to prevent the ends of the ribs extending out beyond the platesetter from becoming charred?

"Sparky"

Two options here,get an XL BGE,or try a small piece of aluminum foil under the rib ends

I bought a metal pizza pan from walmart that fits perfectly inside the legs of the large platesetter. I use it on on all indirect cooks. It extends the protected area enough that i never get burnt ends.

I cut 1 end off so it fits perfectly. Typically with an extended grid I'm easily getting 3 racks and 4 if I try.
