Hickory Smoked Prime Rib

[barkonbutts]

My Father's 69th birthday is tomorrow and we celebrated today! He likes beef so I figured we would do a nice Prime Rib. Had one vac packed away from the winter when they were on sale so got it out.


I gave it a good score and them rubbed in Pickapeppa sauce(like worsy but better), garlic powder, onion powder and season salt and CBP.



Let it sit in the frig over night to get the seasoning going on..

Heated up the smoker to 245* using Hickory pellets. Put the 5.35 pound Roast on at 12:45 and took it off at 4:30 when it hit 136* and let rest for about 15 minutes. Did not get a final temp..

Fried up some shoe string onions...yummy...also did mashed tater and salad..


Started slicing up and oh did it taste good and smell good. Here are a few shots. It was a great meal. I must thank bear for his lesson on this from his post as I love that wall to wall pink you get cooking at the lower temps! Hope you enjoy the pics!

Wow that's some great looking meat right there! I love prime rib. I haven't smoked one yet, and now you've inspired me to do it. So was the outer cust of the meat crispy? I love that part with all the seasoning in it. Also did you foil the meat at anytime?

Thanks for sharing!

No foil until the wrapping and resting part after the cook... Yes it gets a nice crust on it and it was very flavorful.. my dad said it was better than any prime rib he ever ordered out.. I said well I smoked it and they do not.. the thing is with the prime rib you do not get a ton of smoke flavor.. it is very light.. as you cut off the bones and you only get the rim that has been heavily exposed to the smoke...and you are only getting about a 1/2-3/4 inch cut.. depending hon how big of steak you want...it is very very good!
