I found a nice 8lb rib Roast  for 4.99lb so I jumped on it having no idea when I can smoke it .I need suggestions on how to prepare for freezing and how long before I need to cook it.

Tanks for any advice I can get.

Wrap in plastic wrap, then shrink wrap it. Defrost when ready slowly in the fridge. Rub down the night before and you are smokin.

If that's Choice You really got a buy!!!   That's not bad for Select either.

I always get PR during Christmas week, but I get 5 or 6 pounders. Then I put them right in a Vacuum bag & seal them & date them & freeze them, except for the one we eat shortly after buying them.

I've had them in my freezer at 0° as long as 2 years, without a problem, and I'm sure they would have gone a lot longer in vacuum bags.

If I had an 8 pounder & no vacuum bag big enough, I'd cut it in half & freeze both halves.

Then: This is how I do them:
