Rib Roast Bones?

[smoking in ft. collins]

I am smoking a rib eye roast and it came with the rib bones detached. What is the best way to smoke those ?

The rib roast is on at 225* with Pecan.

Thanks in advance!

I don't usually smoke them just because there isn't enough meat, in my opinion, to make it worth while. I make soup. I"m not sure who posted it but I found the recipe here a year or so ago. Here's the recipe:

I leave them on as a heat shield, and once the roast is done I return the ribs back to the smoker for about 2 hours, then wrap with some beefy broth and cook tender.

After processing a whole rib roast I've given up on smoking the meatless ribs, The one I did a few weeks back I sliced the rack into singles and tossed them into the crockpot with some onion and seasoning until they were FOTB, took 12 hours on low. Took the meat and onions and mixed in some spinach, made for a wonderful CI pasta dish. RAY

Unless you trim those bones off the roast yourself you end up with Beef Back ribs, oft derogatorily referred to as Shiners. Which is to say not much meat and the bones shine through.
They can be very tasty, after all it's meat right off the ribeye/prime rib.

You've gotten some good advice so far, for more you can just search Beef Back and/or shiners.

Below is what I do with All of my Prime Ribs. I cut the bones off myself now, because I like to add a little extra Meat to the bones, like I did on the ones in the "Step by Step" below:

Your getting a lot of good info here. I just broke down a rib roast recently and did the ribs seperate. Turned out great.

BREAKING DOWN A RIBEYE ROAST
