I know that feeling. If you don't think so, just ask my wife. She will tell you that's what I'm supposed to be doing...exactly what I'm told

Ray is correct. Going to 140 it may well hit as high as 145 before the residual temp drops off. That's going to put in the range of medium versus medium rare. I have an 8# prime rib on right now that I plan to pull right at 130. Robert [/QUOTE)


It just different strokes for different folks too Robert. Last week I pulled a little prime off at 123º and the fire I was smoking it at was a little higher than I wanted, it shot up eight degrees in just a couple of minutes sitting on the counter. Myself, I like prime in the 127º range, not blue, but rare. Then I saw one earlier this week that someone posted and he said he pulled it at 145º, looked great. Go figure. RAY

I understand. My recommendation, which mirrored yours, was based on his comment about wanting it to be medium rare. Pulling at 140 as was his original plan, it's gonna be beyond that.

Pulled at 130 looks good. Resting now.

Ribs waaaaaay over cooked for me. Family loves them. Beef was pretty good. Wife said it was great.

That beef looks great!

Thanks man! Ribs sucked. So much fat in the meat that i didnt notice. It looked marbled but that was not the case. Bark tasted good. Sauce came out great, even the rack i didnt cook as long were bad. Oh well. Try again next time. I will throw the rib meat in some beans this week and salvage what i can.

The roast looks great though....enjoy the sammies this week.

Well if the family loved the ribs and your wife said the beef was great I'd have to believe you did a pretty darned fine on the entire cook, managed to please everybody but yourself! RAY

LOL Man I appreciate everyone has tastes.. Seems like everyone here like medium rare to rare but me. Grats on the cook looks great super juicy. Sorry the ribs were overdone I am on same side of boat on ribs i usually overcook em I think. As with all my meat i like medium prime rib makes me wanna vomit lol sorry just me personal meat baggage LOL. Everyone else is all slobbery over still wiggling meat. I just can't go there anymore lol. then again I got an ole lady who hates medium rare so probably worn me down :<). grats on the great cook keep us updated on any future rib cooks.
