The later model comes with the therometer, extra flat rack and the silicone basting brush. It also has a stainless steal trim.
I rushed out last fall and bought mine from Target when I first heard about it.
What network did you see it demo'd on? Demonstrator is the word that you're trying to think of.
But if you can't afford it right now, you can still acheive that same great tenderness in your oven. Just set it to the lowest setting and slow cook your ribs overnight covered with some foil and some water at the bottom on the pan to keep them moist. Or use a roaster that has a matching fitting cover.
Wake up to moist tender juicy fall-off-the-bone ribs the next morning!! And as I found out, you don't even have to marinate them like I previously thought!
I showed a former roommate how to do it. He said he wasn't letting them marinate at all. His ribs came out real tender as well!! So I did that too, on account it was so late when I got back home. I was just too tired to start cooking the other night, so I just seasoned the ribs with the dryrub the next morning, put them in the Rival BBQ Pit, added some aromatic veggies, put a little bit of water in the bottom of the crock and let them go for themselves!!
Even without the need to marinate, I STILL had moist tender juicy fall-off-the-bone ribs!!
