I just need to know if my math is correct.
Smoke temp 220-225x35 minutes a pound x 22 lbs.
35mX22lbs=12h45m ruffly to temp, 225-240
 
Wouldn't go with the math as the main guideline... Internal temperature is what will really tell you the situation.

Also, I'd go 275F. Same effect, shorter cook time...
 
I'm not sure which math is the best either. But I do have a published prime rib database of cooking times and have averaged information from about 200 different cooks. I clipped this info from that article. It should put you in the ballpark. Be sure to account for carryover. BTW the 220* is very popular pit temp.

10 pound roast - 220°-228° pit temp - 3 hours to reach 120°
11 pound roast (4 bones) - 215° average pit temp - 4 hours 54 minutes to reach 125°
14 pound roast - 220°-250° pit temp - 4 hours 30 minutes to reach 125°
15 pound roast - 220°-250° pit temp - 4 hrs 50 min to reach 127°
19.5 pound roast (prime grade) - 240° pit temp (dome temp) - 4 hours 25 minutes to reach 124°

Using math to figure a good start time only, going to smoke chicken wings between, smoking and searing. I have a Traeger 780, and use electric thermometers.
