  After smoking, increase the grill temperature to 325 degrees F. Once the grill comes to temperature, continue to cook the pork. At the same time, arrange the chorizo and bacon directly on the grill grate. After 25 to 30 minutes, transfer all the meat to a cutting board. Remove any bones from the pork ribs and chop into bite-size pieces. Slice the chorizo into 1/4-inch slices and dice the bacon.
