Rib Roast cooked too fast! Dinner is in 4 hours. Help!

Cooked to 125. Wrapped it in foil and put it in a cooler with some towels. Will it be okay in there for 4 hours?

How good is your cooler? Can you keep your smoker at 125 and let it sit in the smoker awhile?

I've never let a cut like a rib roast rest that long.Outside of brisket that could be pushing it for rest time when it comes to beef cooked to doneness like rare/med rare but I would think you should be fine if you have a good cooler and wrapped well.

So you have an SV

SV is a good idea if you have one. I hadn’t thought about that.

Holding in a 125 smoker or oven is best. Otherwise, Hold in the cooler. The last hour, place in the oven at its lowest setting. It will warm it without cooking it a whole lot more...JJ

Thanks, I don't have a SV available. I have one at home but I'm out of town. I read blasting it on the grill @ 500 degrees for ten minutes will give it a nice sear and keep it perfect on the inside.

 

[chef jimmyj]

Yes, if you didn't blast it already. That kind of head can overcook the outer the outer portion of the meat leaving rate in the middle and well on the outer edge...JJ
