Smoked Prime Rib Roast

Smoked Prime Rib has become a tradition in my house now! I mean is there anything better than a good prime rib!! I have had prime rib in a restaurant and I always was like ehhh. Well, a friend filled in how they smoke their own prime rib so we opted to try it at home! I know this may seem like oh my gosh that isn’t frugal, but we do it only ever so often and I tend to buy the meat when it’s on sale for the holidays making it much more affordable.

It’s that time of year the holidays!! Now with life always changing we have been working to evolve our old traditions into new traditions.  The kids took to Pinterest and searched for Christmas dinners!!  One meat kept popping up prime rib, now we have been trying new meats but this is one the kids and I haven’t had.  Well, we didn’t want to have our Christmas dinner with a meat we weren’t sure we liked so we had to give it a test run and timed it over the weekend watching football.

Smoked Prime Rib Ingredients:

• Prime Rib Roast
• Smoker chips or disks
• Seasonings ie Sniders Prime Rib Seasoning, Montreal Steak seasoning, garlic salt, rosemary, etc work great

Now an important note about my roast was I picked mine up at a local butcher shop.  They asked how I was cooking my roast and offered to season it!! The seasoning is what I was most nervous about so to have an expert do it was perfect.  I also had the butch tie it up when he said it would help with flavor and cooking, he wasn’t wrong at all!

Smoked Prime Rib Directions:

Season your prime rib roast and if possible let it set in the fridge for a day or more to allow the flavor to soak in.

Now, this is where you know your smoker and how to prep it for smoking.  I use an electric smoker and prefer to use apple disks for smoking all my meat.

Remove your chip holder, water bin, and racks out of your smoker and cap off your exhaust pipe if necessary.

Now I really like to use pucks in my smoker! Below is the pucks I use and also my smoker as well. I also recommend having a good meat thermometer and the oven gloves. It is so much easier to pull out meat from the smoker with the gloves.

Fire up the smoker by raising the temperature on the dial

Fill the water dish and chip holder

Place in your chips and once they start to smoke put in your water tray.  I find I can get a good smoke faster by doing this method.

Once your smoker gets hot enough and a smoke place in your prime rib roast on a rack.   I kept my smoker at 150-200

Roast for hours at least over 6 hours.  We made the mistake of pulling it out to see if we could grill it faster to finish it off and it went up in flames, learn from our mistake don’t put it on the grill!

Be sure to keep replacing your smoker chips and disks to keep the smoke going.

We smoked ours to an internal temperature of 130, so be sure to look what temperature you want for how rare you want your meat.

There are no words to describe how amazing this was to eat!! But if you are like me heartburn is a worry, plan ahead cause this is amazing!
