There are different types of smoker racks and the most popular one is the basic smoker where you put most meat. There is no special number of racks because it depends on the size of the smoker, but most smokers have around 4 or 5 smoker racks. Why? Well because you put the meat on them during smoking. Smoker racks are located in the smoker and you use them to give the meat a soft and juicy taste. You can only open that small doors and you will lose a small amount of heat and smoke which is great for your meat. It means that you don’t have to open the big doors to add wood chips.
