Method

Preparation of Meat

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your grill or smoker to 225°F (107°C). Rub the pork ribs with a mixture of paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Pulled Pork

    If using a slow cooker, place the pulled pork in the cooker and cover it with half a cup of barbecue sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours. If using an oven, wrap the pork in foil and cook at 300°F (150°C) for 4-5 hours until tender.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Chicken Leg Quarters

    Rub the chicken leg quarters with the same spice mix used for the ribs. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes. Grill or bake at 375°F (190°C) for 40-50 minutes, basting with barbecue sauce.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Ribs

    Place the ribs on the grill or in the smoker, bone side down. Cook for about 3 hours, basting occasionally with barbecue sauce, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone.

  2. 5

    Serve the Pulled Pork

    Once the pulled pork is cooked, shred it with two forks and mix in the remaining barbecue sauce. Serve hot.

  3. 6

    Finish the Chicken Leg Quarters

    Once the chicken leg quarters reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), remove them from the heat and let them rest for 10 minutes before serving.
