It's all about the Prime Rib today

I have been wanting to do a roast so bad of late, so I visited my butcher friend last night.  He pulled this bad boy out for me and I couldn't say no.  I am cooking the piece on the left today, 7lb trimmed.  



I got it rubbed up with salt and pepper, and cow lick.  Let it sit overnight in the fridge.  I got the Large preheated to 235* with some cherry and pecan smoke.  In the drip pan, I have beef broth, fresh rosemary, onions, and garlic.  I put everything on the Egg at 12:45 as I would like it ready for 5 ish.  I am also going to make one of my specialties, Garlic Mashed potatoes with a side of brown sugar and butter glazed carrots.  

Here is the progress thus far...





Here we are at 110* IT at 3:30 pm EST




Plan is to pull around 120-125*, rest for 15 minutes while I get the egg up to 500-600*.  Will sear it on a CI pan with garlic butter.  Rest for another 10-15 minutes, slice and serve.

    Do you cut the ribs off of yours before you sear? Reason I ask, I only sear with ribs off....just how I learned. Mostly curious though.

    Not me, I leave them on and sear.  If I were to go that route, I would probably leave the ribs off for the whole cook to give me more crust on all sides of the roast.

    Well, its unanimous, my family loved the meal and the prime rib was so tender it barely required chewing.  Lots of flavour, and the au jus sauce was dynamite!

    Thanks all, I am looking forward to PR leftovers for lunch today at work.  The other staff aren't going to be very happy with me unless I share.

    Looks FANTASTIC!  I have a 6 pound one in the freezer that I want to cook soon.  Just need some help eating it since there is only 3 in our family and two of them only eat about 8 - 10 oz between them on meat.
