First Smoked Rib Roast

[finsfree]

Today I would like to share with the class my first smoked Rib Roast;)

Started off with an 8lb rib roast. Seasoned the roast w/ a tube of Basil herb paste that you would buy at Publix in the produce department and Montreal Steak seasoning.

Placed it on my Oklahoma Joe longhorn offset smoker. I used pecan wood in the the smoker. Took me about a little over two hours to get the internal temp to 125 degrees.

Removed it from the smoker and foiled for for about 20min. The internal temp climbed to about 134 degrees. Started slicing after that.

Looks great! Nice bark on it. That basil herb paste sounds really good I will have to grab a tube of that sometime. Those damn rib roasts will kill you with carryover temp I like to pull mine around 115-120 but I like em rare!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I watched a friend of mine pull his off at 118 and let it rest foiled for about 30min. The internal came up to 133. It was awesome!!!

The one I did in the above post was a little more done than I wanted. I wanted a little more pink. My next one I'm pull off the smoker at around 115 - 120 like you said. Thanks for pointing that out.

You don't really want to screw up a $100.00 piece of meat...;(

Thanks for the replay,

We like our’s a bit more on the rare side, but as I said I sure wouldn’t turn down a slice of the one you made!
Nicely done!!!
