American Backyard Cookout

A three-fire cookout — the ribs need the longest lead time, so season and get them low-and-slow on the smoker or oven first (4+ hours). Simmer the tomato jam while they cook; it holds for days. Mix the cornbread batter and bake it about 30 minutes before serving, and form the burger patties last so they hit the plancha ice-cold. A jar of homemade Sauerkraut on the side needs at least a week to ferment, so start it well ahead of cookout day. The Chimichurri comes together in 10 minutes right before serving.
