Looks great! we just ordered our prime rib to be picked up on the 18 to start dry aging. (20lb prime!) Cant wait for Christmas!!
 
its an hour into the smoke..

also, forgot im smoking some dutches beans without the jalapenos..
and.. i wasnt paying attention to the recipe and forgot to sautee the onions and peppers..
 
dude......you should have them beans UNDER the prime rib.....let them juices fall into the beans.........will give it a GREAT flavor
 
Wow. Looks great, but those beans with all those pepper is gonna lite you UP!! I found they were to spicy with one jalapeno

And I like hot stuff. 5 hours?? I wouldn't think it would take that long for 125 to 130 internal, but that is a big hunk of meat.
 
Looks great!

Like WD said, I'd put the beans under the meat... it really adds alot of flavor to savor!
 
flash,
no jalapenos in the beans.. cant handle hot stuff.. actually, i can, stomach cant...

my digital themometer says 111 right now and my older than dirt meat thermometer says 125... which should i believe???

oonighttrain, believe the thermometer that you calibrated. I know I am a little late with this, but a rib roast is a thick cut of beef. IMHO a thick cut of beef requires a heavy amount of seasoning and in big pieces, ie., cracked pepper, granulated garlic, kosher salt. Looks like you have a good smoke going, but these are my suggestions for next time.
 
calibrated?????

i havent calibrated anything.....

my buddy is on his way with another analog meat t meter.. ill see what it says and make an educated guess...

ill post more pics soon.....

take your digital in the house......boil some water........stick the probe in it, and see what it reads..........it should say 212........if its off a degree or three, you know about what its reading in the meat..........if its off BUNCHES........yeah....you need another thermo to check
 
here she is when all is said and done... was pretty tastey!!

thanks for all the help!!
