Scrumptious Barbecue Chicken Or Spareribs Recipes

BARBECUED CHICKEN AND RIBS

Steps:

• Heat ovens to 325 degrees and 350 degrees. Coat the bottoms of two large roasting pans with enough sauce to cover. Add chicken to one pan and ribs to the other. Coat chicken and ribs with remaining sauce.
• Bake ribs at 325 degrees until cooked through, about 1 hour. Bake chicken at 350 degrees until cooked through, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill. Place chicken and ribs on grill, discarding remaining sauce in roasting pans. Grill chicken and ribs, turning and basting frequently with more sauce until well browned and heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a small saucepan heat sauce to serve with chicken and sauce.

BEST-EVER BARBECUED RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine first 5 ingredients in a small bowl. Place each rack of ribs on a double layer of foil; sprinkle rub all over ribs. Wrap racks individually and divide between 2 baking sheets.
• Bake ribs until very tender but not falling apart, about 2 hours for baby backs and 3 hours for spareribs. Carefully unwrap ribs; pour any juices from foil into a 4-cup heatproof measuring cup; reserve juices. Let ribs cool completely. DO AHEAD: Ribs can be baked up to 3 days ahead (the flavor will be more developed, and the cold ribs will hold together better on the grill as they heat through). Cover and chill juices. Rewrap ribs in foil and chill.
• Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Add broth or water to rib juices, if needed, to measure 1 1/2 cups. Whisk in barbecue sauce to blend.
• Grill ribs, basting with barbecue sauce mixture and turning frequently, until lacquered and charred in places and heated through, 7-10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; cut between ribs to separate. Transfer to a platter and serve with additional barbecue sauce.

• Stir together all sauce ingredients until sugar is dissolved.
• Open vents two-thirds in lid and bottom of grill. Light half a chimney of charcoal, then put on one side of bottom rack, mounding and banking against side. Charcoal will be ready for cooking when it turns grayish white (10 to 15 minutes). Temperature should be about 350°F inside covered grill. Add additional charcoal if necessary. (Temperature will gradually drop during cooking; the goal is to maintain a low, continuous heat, about 250°F.) Put wood-chip packet on coals, then arrange grill rack so that one hinged side is over the coals.
• Oil rack lightly. Arrange ribs on rack so that they do not extend over coals, then cover.
• Cook ribs, covered until tender, about 4 hours. Every 20 minutes, baste ribs with sauce, turn over and switch positions, and add about 8 pieces of charcoal to the mound.
