Rib-lovers everywhere are gearing up for the unofficial start of the summer barbecue season: Memorial Day weekend. But if you're cooking for a crowd, you're probably wondering how the heck you'll fit all those slabs on your backyard grill.

This year, we suggest you skip the space crunch and use a rib rack to maximize your cooking capacity. The Steven Raichlen Ultimate Rib Rack, available at Straub's Markets and Bed, Bath & Beyond, allows you to grill up to four slabs of ribs at a time. Developed by the popular author of the The Barbecue! Bible and numerous other grilling cookbooks, the Raichlen rack features a "non-stick, rust-proof" surface that stands up to even the biggest slabs. You'll find a similar rack at Sur la Table, the Platinum Stainless Vertical Rib Rack, which also allows you to grill four slabs at a time. And since the racks cook the ribs in a vertical position that keeps them from mucking up your grill surface, you can look forward to a quicker cleanup after you've picked those bones clean.
