Ribs and wings help

Yes you can put the ribs in the oven for the 2 hours while cooking the wings. The 3-2-1 method at 225 will give you fall off the bone results if that's what your looking for. I would crank the heat for the wings and go like 400 indirect.

I have done something similar and it worked out fine. I cooked the ribs at 275 dome and went 3 hours in the egg, 1.5 hours in foil, then just 20 minutes or so back on the egg to finish and set the sauce. There was plenty of time to heat the egg up and get the wings cooked. My oven runs hot so if I recall correctly they might have been a little more done than I like them. I would just check the ribs periodically to make sure they don't get too done in the "foil stage". If you find they look done (bones exposed, bendy), then just remove them from the oven and keep them wrapped or perhaps FTC them while the wings cook.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

cook the ribs no foil til just about done, foil them then into the cooler to rest while the chicken gets done. as the chicken is finishing up, open the vents, remove chicken, get a good hot fire, toss ribs on to reheat and crisp, keep dome open and baste and flip repeatedely while basting with a thinned down sauce til done, about 10 minutes. the open dome and fire lapping the ribs make for the show

As others have mentioned, your plan should work. One pitfall to avoid is that when you sauce the ribs and put them on the egg, if it is still above 300 from the wings you will need to watch them very closely if your sauce has sugar in it. An hour at that temp with a sugar-based sauce can leave you with just a thick black outer crust. Don't ask how I know.
So, when you take the ribs out of the foil and put them back on the egg, they should be pretty much "done". All you want to do at that point is glaze them with your sauce. That may only take 15 minutes or so.
