I have been experimenting with various methods for cooking ribs for years. I have boiled, marinated, slow cooked, smoked and grilled in every imaginable combination during that time. After my first batch of ribs in this cooker...I am done with experimenting. I take 6 racks of ribs, rub them with honey, dry rub and put them in the cooker. I hr and 15 min later, we have perfection. If people like them wet, put some sauce on em, but there is no need to. Truely incredible.....thats all I can say. YOU MUST TRY THIS COOKER!Pat

The Original Orion Cooker

The Orion Cooker is a new, innovative outdoor convection cooker that uses three cooking processes simultaneously: convection, steam and smoke (if desired). This cooking process couldn't be any easier and yields incredible results every time. Using 100% indirect heat to create a convection current, there is absolutely no cooking maintenance with drastically reduced cook times. When compared to traditional smokers, the Orion Cooker is unmatched in cooking speed. Smoke six racks of ribs in 1 hour and 15 minutes, or a twenty pound turkey in 2 hours and 15 minutes.

The Orion Cooker includes 3 rib hangers to accomodate 6 racks of ribs, 3 cooking grates providing 398 square inches of cooking surface, and a poultry stand and lifting handle which holds a 24 pound Turkey. Fantastic prime rib, beef brisket, boston butt and seafood. Just fill it, fire it and forget it!
