I'm going to sear it on the small, then knock temp down to round 300 for 1.5-2 hrs with cherry, looking for 140F internal.....drip pan with some broth....am I not thinking of something? Missing a step, got my temp wrong? :ermm: This will be my first one....granted, it's for my f-i-l b-day, but I dont want to screw it up 2 bad because of the cost! :woohoo:

This is what I found for him---1978 seal un-broken 100 month aged Jim Beam blue gill decanter! My math says about 40 years old... :blink: Can't wait to bust into that! B)

    Chris,

    Buddy, just do it at 250* and sear at the end if you need it man. Trust me here :) Almost no chance for cook error ;)

    Chris, nice hunk of meat you got there. What LS said, I tried both 300+ and 250, the lower temp cook wins hands down ...better texture and more tender. Remember the photos!

    Chris,
    I have cooked a standing rib roast both ways and each was tasty, I like slow cook start (250-275) and sear at the end because I also make Yorkshire pudding with the drippings and the pudding needs to cook at 425.
    Whichever way you decide it will be good, just don't over cook it. Remember pan for drippings and bone side down.
    If you plan to serve the roast to a group remove the meat from the rack. It makes carving at the table a lot easier and the bones becomes the cook's treat.
    Don't forget the horsey sauce either.
    And what time is supper?

    To Steven.250(indirect) til it hits desired temp.NO sear.It is a Rib Roast,not a steak,no sear needed,besides it will just burn the stuff you have put on the outside.Personally,I would pull at NO MORE than 125 Internal.It will rise during the 30 minute rest.If some people like theirs more done you can throw their slice back on for a few minutes,but please don't overcook that beautiful hunk-o-meat. ;):) Best of luck!

    I agree You get more browning and maillard reaction by roasting than by searing

    Searing will burn fat, and that's never good.

    You have heard from the pro's, I have not tried the low cook with reverse sear. What I have done with great success is get the egg to 500, indirect. Place the meat on and get it back to 500. Then cap the top and close the bottom until it reaches 350. Cook at 350, 20 min per pound or until desired internal temp, and let it rest. Hard to mess it up, the egg is very forgiving.

    Thanks for all the input y'all! ;) 275F till 125 internal it is-sear at the end. I will bring my camera to post pics, as we'll be at the lake this weekend. Dinner is 7p, whiskey starts 'round 3.. :laugh:

    Uncle sam has screwed me blue this year Molly! :pinch: But as father-in-laws go, he's worth it......I guess.... :huh: He has ponied up bout 6gs this year for school tuition for the kids....

    This one is boneless...broth in drip pan should make for a good au jus though....horsey sauce is a must!

    Richard,
    I checked my recipe notebook and I have a few corrections to my last night’s post. I do start out low and slow (about 275 when meat goes on, temp drops and stays around 250) and sear at the end, but never take the meat past 375. Actually, according to my notes, I pull the meat when Egg temp gets between 365 and 375. I learned to cook by looks, feel, smell and time, so I don’t have internal temps to give you. In fact, I just bought Egg Temp probe for information purposes and now I find myself contemplating buying a wireless system.

    Also my drip pan stands proud of the place setter because I want that fat for the pudding.

    Here is the recipe for Yorkshire pudding (aka popovers)
    1/2 teaspoon salt (taste the fat and decrease if necessary)
    2 eggs
    1 cup milk
    1 cup of flour
    4 tablespoons oil_
    Mix (blender or by hand) the first 4 ingredients and set in frig for at least 1 hr (2hr even better)

    Use either an 8x8 square metal pan, a popover pan or large muffin pan add the fat to pan. Place pan in oven and heat oven to 450.
    When oven comes to temp pour in the cold batter.
    Cook until golden brown about 20 to 30 minutes. (oven=Egg and I make sure the pan is good and hot before adding the batter)

    Sorry about the missing info on the first post. I will bring the wine.
