I've got a ribeye roast that I'm egging tonight for some friends. I cooked one at Easter time Mad Max style and it came out great, only problem is it came off the egg about 2 hours late :unsure:

This one is 5 pounds boneless. My plan is to have the eggg up around 600, put the roast on (indirect), let it roar at 600 for 10 minutes or so, then close the vents all the way till it drops to 350, then stabilize there and cook at 350 till it reaches 135 (foil for a bit, then carve.

Any guestimates as to how long this will take? I can be off by 1/2 hr or so, but don't want to be off by 2 hrs this time B)

thanks

    Here is one that is EGGable. I pull mine around 125F as I like more rare and it usually creeps up 5 degrees of so.

    Beef, Prime Rib, Roast W/Thyme Au Jus


    INGREDIENTS:
    1 6-7 Lbs bone-in prime rib
    8 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
    Salt and coarsely ground black pepper
    2 cups red wine
    4 cups beef stock
    1 Tbs chopped fresh thyme leaves




    Preparation:
    1 Thirty minutes before roasting the prime rib, remove from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature.
    2 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    3 Make small slits all over the prime rib and fill each slit with a slice of the garlic. Season liberally with the salt and coarse pepper, place on a rack set inside a roasting pan and roast for about 2 hours until medium-rare, or until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 135 degrees F. Remove the meat to a platter, and tent with foil to keep warm.
    Au Jus:
    1 Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over 2 burners set on high heat. Add the wine to the pan drippings in the pan and cook over high heat until reduced, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the stock and cook until reduced by half. Whisk in the thyme and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
    2 Slice meat as desired and serve with thyme au jus.
