4 Racks of Ribs and one whole chicken Suggestions


 
Hi Rick
Spares or loin back ribs?
If loin back you could start them at the same time. Ribs on top in a rib rack. You have to watch the chicken so it doesn't dry out. Start at 225*F for 3 hours then increase to 275*F until done. Depending on size the chicken on the lower grate will take about 4 hours plus a little bit.
The ribs will take 4 - 5 hours, if there not too big.

Spares: You'll want to start those 2 hours before the chicken.

Morgan,

Very timely post for me as I plan to smoke 3 baby back racks and one 5 pound chicken tomorrow (International Smoke Day) and was thinking about how long to cook. Thanks,

With a chicken that size they'll probably be done at the same time. I'm about to head to the Market now and pick my ribs. I'll probably do ribs, butt and chicken.
I'll have a smaller chicken and a single rack cut in half delicately balance on the bottom grate, lovingly basted by my sacrificial butt on the top. Bless.

see ya guys
