I picked up an 8 1/2 lb. 7 bone roast and I would like to smoke this up tommorow. Have any of you done this before? Ive only seen 1 good post about it and would like some tips on temp, time, rubs or fixins to go with.
 
Here's one I did...

Put rib roast in the handy dandy search tool and there are many more posts...

Looks like Craig has you covered there. I usually do a dry smoke chamber, smoke anywhere from 265-280 and pull when the IT hits 130* (we like rare) foil and rest a good 30 minutes. My last one was about half the size of yours and I want to say it hit IT at about 4.5 hours.I prefer Cherry and Hickory for beef. Good luck and post some photos!
 
The procedure I've used for many years is pretty straight forward and produces a perfect medium rare roast, center to outer edge, every time.....

- Bring roast to room temp. and apply seasonings/rubs of your choice.

- Cook/Smoke roast at 180F-200F until the IT is 118F-120F.

- Remove, tightly foil, and let roast rest for 30-45 minutes.

- Remove foil and put roast into an oven pre-heated to 550F for 7-9 minutes.

- Remove roast, slice, and serve.

Unless I am wrong, the 7 bone is off the beef chuck.  A blade roast.

I would treat that like a chuckie.  I don't think you will be happy with a med rare chuck.

Now if you are talking about a rib roast with 7 rib bones,  that whole thing would go upside down?

Good luck and good smoking.
