Hanging vs rack
« Reply #-1 on: April 18, 2017, 03:20:36 PM »
  So I was looking at Bake426's lamb. It looks great ...
 It got me thinking about hanging meat to cook rather than placing it on a rack. Not just in the PBC but in any cooker. I know meat coming off the rotisserie comes out great even if its not turning .  I have hung meat in the SRG and TBE many times as well and those turn out really well.   
 
But does it cook better hanging than it does sitting for some reason?

It depends on the protein. Chicken and ribs I hang.  Most other I use a rack.

The rack sits in the "sweet spot" where the hanged meat would normally be. Same results. I have had my PBC for over 4 years now and I can't taste the difference if it is hanged or setting on the grate.  :P :P  It all tastes excellent. You get the "grease fog" no matter which way you go  :thumbup: :thumbup:
