Overcrowding a Kettle

Post by swebbo »

Ayeup :)

Just been delivered 3 babybacks and 2 beef short ribs from Ocado. Planning to put these on with a cheap 2kg pork shoulder from Morrisons. I think they will fit on one side, if i stack the ribs next to the shoulder for the last 4 hours of its cook.

Hoping to start at 5 or 6am tomorrow and server a Jubilee BBQ at 3pm. Just doing the rubs now.

Is this too much for a 57cm weber kettle to handle? I'm doubting it now :?

Cheers
Stu :mrgreen:

Yeah, starting to think I might have to put the pork in the oven when i start the ribs.

If anyones interested in what raw ocado babybacks look like, I'll stick a pic up.

A picture paints a thousand words, which saves a heck of a lot of typing :lol:
Don't forget your assessment of the QUANTITY of meat as well as the quality
