Prime rib for new years day!

[fullborebbq]

So lets start with the roast itself. 8 lbs from Wally world

Lets put it in the smoker to cold smoke for 2 hours. 2/1 cookinpellets Perfect mix to Mesquite pellets.

Beautiful western NY day 30 deg outside 45 inside the smoker. after 2 hours time to cover with SPOGR.


Back out to the smoker for 2 hours at 275 deg then bump to 325 for IT of 125 deg.


The project finished late so the roast was cooled and cut today. All pieces are chamber vac packed and await a reheat in the new SV unit from the earlier post.

Looks great! Let us know how it turns out reheating in the SV

Ok so Vacpac and hold in fridge will make the outer color go grey. The SV reheated at 130 deg for 2 hours from fridge temp of 34 deg yielded a nice piece of meat for a reheated cut. they were better the day of, of course.
The inside did stay the perfect medium pink color and the cold smoke flavor was prominent on the outside edges. I did not get a whole lot of penetration at the smoking temp of 45 degrees.

It is tough to do experiments like this. The wife is a well done ground beef eater.
