Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spice Rub

    In a small bowl, mix together paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Rub the Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Rub olive oil over the chicken and then apply the spice mixture evenly on both sides.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest.

Ribs Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and pat them dry.

  2. 5

    Season the Ribs

    In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the ribs.

  3. 6

    Bake the Ribs

    Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with foil. Cover with another piece of foil and bake for 2.5 to 3 hours until tender.

  4. 7

    Glaze the Ribs

    Remove the ribs from the oven and brush generously with BBQ sauce. Return to the oven uncovered for an additional 30 minutes.

  5. 8

    Finish the Ribs

    Once glazed, remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
