Method

Ribs Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rib Rub

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

  2. 2

    Apply the Rub

    Generously coat the pork ribs with the dry rub mixture, ensuring all surfaces are covered. Wrap the ribs in plastic wrap and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  3. 3

    Smoke the Ribs

    Preheat the smoker to 225°F (107°C). Place the marinated ribs in the smoker and smoke for 4-5 hours until tender and the meat pulls away from the bone easily.

  4. 4

    Add BBQ Sauce

    During the last 30 minutes of smoking, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce to caramelize.

Meat Preparation

  1. 5

    Season the Chicken Thighs

    Rub the chicken thighs with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to season.

  2. 6

    Cook the Chicken

    Grill the chicken thighs over medium heat for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Brush with BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of cooking.
