Method

Preparation of Meats

  1. 1

    Preheat your smoker or grill to 225°F (107°C).

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to create a dry rub.

  3. 3

    Rub the spice mixture generously over the pork ribs and brisket. Make sure to cover all surfaces.

  4. 4

    Let the meats sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature to absorb the flavors.

Cooking the Meats

  1. 5

    Place the ribs and brisket in the smoker or grill, bone side down for the ribs.

  2. 6

    Cook for approximately 6-8 hours, maintaining a temperature of 225°F (107°C), until the internal temperature of the brisket reaches 195°F (90°C) and the ribs are tender.

  3. 7

    During the last hour of cooking, brush the meats with BBQ sauce to create a glaze.

Preparation of Sides

  1. 8

    Prepare the coleslaw by combining shredded cabbage and carrots in a bowl. Add coleslaw dressing and mix well. Refrigerate until serving.

  2. 9

    For the baked beans, either use canned beans or cook them from scratch. If using canned, heat them on the stove with some added spices and BBQ sauce for flavor.

  3. 10

    Bake cornbread according to package instructions or your favorite recipe. Let it cool before slicing.

Serving

  1. 11

    Once the meats are done, let them rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing.

  2. 12

    Slice the brisket against the grain and serve with ribs on the side.

  3. 13

    Serve the meats alongside coleslaw, baked beans, and cornbread.
