Peel and quarter the carrot and 1 onion. Put carrot, onion, approx. 2 tsp. salt, peppercorns and a good 3 litres of water in a large roasting pan and bring to the boil. Wash the spare ribs and put them into the boiling water. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 1 1/2 hours
Peel and grate 3 onions. Mix tomato ketchup, brown sugar, grated onions and about 1/2 tsp. salt well. Season to taste with salt and Tabasco (approx. 1 teaspoon). Stir in the oil at the end
Wash and drain chicken legs and wings. Lift spare ribs from the roaster onto a fat pan. Add chicken pieces to the boiling meat stock and simmer covered for about 15 minutes. In the meantime, spread the spare ribs thickly with BBQ sauce on both sides. Drain the pre-cooked chicken pieces, place them on a baking tray and also spread the BBQ sauce on them. Leave the meat to cool for approx. 1 hour, then cover with foil and leave to stand in a cool place for 4-5 hours
Wash the tomatoes. Cut the corncobs into pieces. Place spare ribs and chicken pieces in portions on grill trays. Grill for 25-30 minutes while turning until crispy brown. A little later, place the corn wheels and tomatoes between the meat and grill with it. Cut the finished spare ribs into pieces and place them on a large plate with the finished chicken legs and wings, corn and tomatoes. Garnish with thyme. Grill the rest of the meat, corn and tomatoes on a 2nd grill or afterwards
Waiting time approx. 5 hours
