Hello, fellow Eggers...

i've been reading all the posts on doing the roast and noticed most do the roast with bones off as compared to bones on?
>
7.68 # roast with bone and i want to put it on and take it off when its done, to much family over...
>
indirect, 300 temp, drip pan but WITH bone or WITHOUT bone ?....
>
>
does it cook faster without the bone? 
>
 i see where some have put the bones in the drip pan to cook?
>
tks, and Have a Eggerfull Day

    Yup-kinda like Ford vs Chevy...That said, I'm in the bones off camp only because I really enjoy the beef back ribs that they become.  You can get a more uniform cook w/o the bones but I don't think it makes that much difference-BTW here's a good read about the subject:  http://www.amazingribs.com/recipes/beef/prime_rib_roast.html Regardless of where you land it will be great!

    Im from the school of bone on I feel that the bone adds flavor and it also protects the meat if you cook bone side down

    I go bone off. Gives more area to create delicious bark/crust. I used the bones to make au jus today and refrigerate until tomorrow when I will reheat on the stove.
