If you haven't tried to Smoke a Prime Rib, you need to.

[JP Z]

So I decided to try my hand at smoking a Prime Rib after reading up online I felt I was ready to attempt it.

I started out with about a 5lber I had picked up at Cub for $6/lb a few months back. Slathered it up with Worchestershire and then put a liberal coating of Tatonka Dust.........most for just use Salt, Pepper, Onion powder and Garlic Powder but I can't Not use Tatonka on red meat.

Had the smoker running between 225 and 240 fired up with a mix of Apple and Hickory.

So I put the Rib in and let it run for 2.5 hrs then stuck my remote Thermometer into it and continued to monitor until it got to an IT of 135 and then I pulled it.

Here it is after the 2.5hrs.

Total cook time was a hair under 5 hours. I then Pulled it and wrapped in foil and let it rest for an hour to redistribute the juices. Then I sliced myself a quick taste and put it in the fridge, I should mention I didn't start this smoke till after 5 because I had already defrosted the rib and was going to be out of town for the next 4 days So my kids and my in-laws were the ones to enjoy it and I was told it was the best Prime Rib they have ever had which was pretty cool.

Here was my midnight snack. With the side of Dino Bones.

After reading that and thinking about it for a little I think I need to hit the meat market and give that a shot. Almost drooling already!

[JP Z]

Yeah.........the little bit I got to have was awesome.....Definitely the best PR I've ever had.

A little trivia for you prime rib lovers. Did you know an 80 lb. yellow lab can eat 7 pounds of prime rib in less time than it takes a man to go to the bathroom to urinate. I guess he didn't think it needed time to rest.

Must be part chocolate too, I can be in the same room and food will dissappear without a sound.

I'll bet you said 'Gee whiz'!!!!

Here I'm thinking that I'd like to try the prime rib on the grill but its kind of a spendy piece of meat - and then I read about you feeding one to your lab!!! Got a good chuckle out of it!!!

[JP Z]

BlackJack, Just check the Cub ad or I guess your local Supermarket. This is just a Ribeye Roast that I had the butcher leave whole rather than cut me some ribeyes. During Grilling season Cub seems to have Ribeye on sale for around $6/lb.
