Robin are the results much better then doing a beer can chicken?
I would be looking at using it on a charcoal 67cm weber.
Thanks

I presume you mean a 57cm Weber, I've cooked everything from chickens to 12Kg suckling pig and I also have the "Ribolator" for rhighs, bits and pices and of course ribs.

Yes I prefer the results to beer can chicken, it's a much more even cook.
Having said that the weber add on will not fit a 67cm weber only the 57cm

Keith where did you get a ribolator from? I've been thinking about one, how do you find it?

Robin here is a link to my review of the Ribolator, which includes the email address of the company in Holland who are/were (?) the European importers, service was excellent.

Cheers had read that but wandered whether your views had changed/developed now you've lived with it for a while.
I fancy giving ribs a try on it, how to they compare to being done on your smoker?

Compared to doing them 3-2-1 on the smoker there is no comparrison, the long and slow on the smoker works much better. Having said that they are much better than oven cooked & bbq crisped or the soggy restaurant fare one sometimes gets. Also it's quite versatile chicken thighs, wings basically anything that fits in the tray. If you want to mix and match the trays there is a wonderful thing called foil to block the holes up with

I haven't done that yet
