Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Meat

Season the pork spare ribs and chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

2

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium heat. If using charcoal, let the coals burn until they are covered with white ash.

3

Cook the Ribs

Place the seasoned pork spare ribs on the grill. Close the lid and cook for about 2-3 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender and has a nice char.

4

Cook the Chicken

Add the bone-in chicken pieces to the grill during the last 30-40 minutes of cooking the ribs. Brush with BBQ sauce during the last 10 minutes of cooking.

5

Heat the BBQ Beans

In a saucepan, heat the canned BBQ beans over medium heat until warmed through, about 10 minutes.

6

Serve

Serve the ribs and chicken with BBQ beans, potato salad, cole slaw, bread, pickles, and additional BBQ sauce on the side.
