You probably have one of these, but if you don't, the rib racks that
fit into the larger verticals work great.

I can easily put three full racks of good sized spares in my WSM on
the top grate if I cut them in half and put them in the rack knuckle
(chine) side up. The collagen and fat will run down the ribs in a
most satisfactory manner in the racks.

My problem with splitting the ribs between the grates is that the
lower grate on my WSM is sometimes a cooler than the upper, giving
different finishing times.
