Thanks Bear. It turned out very nice I am pleased with it. Maybe a bit overdone for me, but it was perfect for my wife. It was a small sacrifice to keep her happy.
I must also add this was the first smoke since I added the mailbox mod yesterday and I am so impressed. Wish I did it sooner. I normally burn almost a full tray when the AMNPS was in the smoker. Really nice TBS and I didn't have to battle jumped rows in the tray. What a treat!
Smoking my first prime rib today based pretty much on Bearcarver's method with ChefJimmyJ's au jus.
The meat. 7.2 pounder I have had in the freezer since I stocked up when it was on sale for 3.99/lb. I picked up 4 then, this was the smallest of the bunch.

I'm going to drill two or three like...
Just to follow-up I got my mailbox all set up last night and just experimented a bit on an empty smoker. The top of the box right over the spot that is burning in the tray gets pretty warm, but I could still rest my hand on it for 10+ seconds. The bottom stays cool to the touch, and the sides...
Well I set up the mailbox mod tonight so I'm not worried about excess moisture anymore. I think I will still bring the liquid to a summer before putting it in the smoker though.
I'm doing a prime rib this weekend for Father's Day and I want to make ChefJJ's au jus, wondering if 6 cups of liquid in the smoker is going to give me problems with keeping AMNPS lit? I have never used water in the smoker yet. Does anyone heat the broth before dumping in pan in the smoker to...
