Weber Rib Rack

The rack is designed to be versatile, but you should ensure your grill has enough surface area to accommodate the footprint of the rack. It is compatible with most standard gas and charcoal grills, provided the lid can close completely with the rack inside.

Cooking ribs vertically allows for better airflow around the meat, which promotes more even heat distribution. While it doesn't drastically change the cooking time, it helps achieve a consistent cook across all racks and makes it significantly easier to apply sauces or glazes.

While the rack is made of durable plated steel, we recommend hand-washing it with warm, soapy water to preserve the finish. Using a grill brush or a non-abrasive sponge will easily remove any stuck-on sauce or residue.

While optimized for ribs, the rack can also be used to hold other items like chicken halves or thick-cut vegetables, provided they fit securely between the slots. It is a great tool for maximizing vertical space whenever you are cooking multiple pieces of meat that benefit from indirect heat.

The handles are made of the same plated steel as the rest of the rack, so they will get hot during the grilling process. You should always use heat-resistant grill gloves or mitts when moving the rack on or off the grill.
