I am not sure what is the best, or makes the Prime rib the juiciest?

I've done it a few times both ways, probably can't tell a difference between the two methods myself.
The end sear is easier because you don't have to adjust vents and wait for the temps to drop before you roast it. -
thanks, I think I will go with the end. 250 for about 3 hours or till I hit about 120' then I will sear it in the oven at 500'.
Unless you have a good way to get the green up up in temp after sitting at 250' for that long?At the end of the day...It's the end of the day! -
Just open the vents,, probably won't take more than a few minutes

Pull it off about 110* and set it on the counter.
Take the daisy top off the egg and open the bottom vent all the way. You'll be at 500° or more within ten minutes. Put the roast back on for 10 minutes or so until it hits 120* and then rest it. It should cruise up to a nice medium rare of 130-135° during the rest.
Be careful if you have any remote temp probes during this sear -- you can fry them if not careful. -
thanks! I have the meat ready to go.At the end of the day...It's the end of the day!

I cooked mine (indirect) at 370° until in I.T. of 130°. I didn't think it needed a sear.

Is there a secret to cutting the bone in rib roast? I had trouble slicing so I ended up cutting the bones out, then sliced the meat. I like the way your cuts look there with the bone attached.Houston, TX

I learned this recently from this great forum ...remove the bones and tie the meat like a log; it cooks more evenly. Bonus: beef ribs in the drip pan.canuckland

That looks good! I'll have to try that. Thanks Canugghead!Houston, TX

If you are cooking it that high, you do not need a sear, as I believe 310 is the temp where the Maillard reaction occurs, but if you are cooking below that, you will definitely want to sear, and I'd do it after, as the moisture has already been cooked out of the surface, and your sear can be much quicker... 8 -10 minutes or so.Village Idiot said:I cooked mine (indirect) at 370° until in I.T. of 130°.
