    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    Some great looking meat on that first link! I do have a question though. It appears that your temperature probes weren’t fully inserted/not reaching to the center of the roast. By the same token, I read where you pulled it at a higher than medium rare temperature and still got medium rare meat...

    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    Assorted thoughts I see on here but what I was doing, after researching through many threads and other sources, ended up being the same as most of the oven methods I’ve seen. As well, I didn’t have the 10 or so hours to do it low and slow, but everything I read said you basically don’t get any...

    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    Also, I tested my probes and in a boil 3 read 214 and the other 212. My freeze test also had 3 at 32 and one at 34

    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    Sorry for all the confusion. I knew I felt like I left something off of my post and have now edited it. AFTER 20 MINUTES AT 500, I TURNED IT DOWN TO 325. Total cook time was 4 hours.

    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    My thermometers weren’t remote. I went out and checked every 10 minutes when it hit 120 degrees

    Questions about why my prime (select) rib came out overdone

    I did an 11# 4 bone one. I prepped it 2 days before. Day of cooking I left it out for 2 hours (which I won't bother with next time as the temp essentially did not change) before placing on the fully preheated to 500 degree pellet smoker for 20 minutes and then turned it down to 325 degrees...

    Leave prime rib out until room temp before cooking?

    I've been looking through the prime (well, choice actually) rib threads and no one has mentioned leaving it out until it reaches room temp. internally before putting on the smoker/grill/oven, for a more even cook. I've always seen this done (and do it myself) with steaks, and with this being...

    Thanksgiving Turkey

    Here’s my biggest question. Do I remove the tie that holds the legs crossed when I brine or do I do it when smoking or not until after cooked?

    Thanksgiving Turkey

    Thanks. I’m planning on cooking Tuesday so I guess I should move it to the refrigerator now? It’s a 20# whole Turkey
