Been looking at online suppliers but haven't found what I think I will need: A kind of holding table that is used by old fashioned delis... rather than a steam table, it would be sort of a deep steam box... maybe a 3 ft cube. I have seen delis where they open the lid and grab out a nice corned beef from a box that looks like it could hold a dozen briskets, racks of ribs, etc. I sense that it has a bottom shelf with holes, allowing steam to permeate the cabinet, rather than holding in a dry tray over steam. This seems ideal for keeping brisket, ribs, chicken, hot and moist for a couple of hours during service. Better than holding in a pit...
