Anyone have a recipe for smoking a ribeye roast? Temperature for the smoking and time is what I'm after for cooking a 4lb roast.

    I prefer Lo-N-Slow.Indirect,250 dome til it hits 120 internal.NO SEAR.Just my preference.Some sear first,some do an end sear.It ain't a steak,it's a roasted Rib Roast.If you cook at too high temp the outter part(outter inch or so) will overcook before the middle reaches desired temp.Good Luck! :)

    Agree, mostly. 250 is perfect, with a nice IT of 120 or 125.

    I use a little bit of EVOO, splash on some fresh cracked pepper and sea salt. That's it.

    Here's one that I used and it's wonderful:

    Rib Roast

    5-7lb prime rib/rib roast
    Olive oil
    Salt
    Pepper
    Celery salt
    Thyme

    Make a paste out of the olive oil and spices. Rub on roast.

    Fire BGE to 500 degrees with plate setter on. Put roast on BGE for 20 minutes.

    Drop temperature to 350 degrees. Pull roast off when internal temperature hits 130 degrees (approximately 40 minutes).

    Tent with tin foil and let rest until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees.
