For Father's Day tomorrow, I need to prepare ribs AND chicken. How can I do it since they cook at different temperatures and for different time?[p]Jimi, would prefer not to break out the old Weber.

    Ribs don't mind a little resting. You might consider cooking the ribs til they are just about done. Wrap them in foil and retire to a cooler. Then cook your chicken. When you pull the chicken off you can finish up the ribs on the grill by caramelizing a little sauce on.[p]Have fun!

    .................................................
    .................................................
    go out for father's day and buy a small egg as a
    gift to yourself(assuming you are a father)..this
    will allow you to do both cooks at the same time.[p]If anyone else that ma or may not be the boss of you finds
    out that you can cook ribs9put in a cooler) THEN cook
    chicken....well then your just up SC w/out a paddle[p]To quote Janis Joplin "try tryyyyyyy just a little
    bit harder"[p]good luck [p]I'm doing ribs myself tonight[p]Jan

    Nature Boy,
    About how long can you hold them without them steaming themselves to fall apart overdoneness?
