Ingredients:
1 Prime Rib Roast (the size of the roast will not change the way that you cook it.)
Your favorite dry rub Our Dry Rub Recipes
Wood chips Use our Meat Smoking Guide to choose what type of wood to use.

Directions:
1. Let the roast sit at room temperature for at least 30-minutes.
2. Preheat smoker to 225F.
3. Completely rub the roast with your dry rub.
4. Place the rib roast in your smoker and smoke until the temperature reaches (120F/ rare, 125F/ medium rare, 130F/ medium.) The typical smoke time is 35-minutes/ lb. for rare. Also the meat in the picture was cooked to medium-rare
5. Make sure that you add your wood chips at the beginning of the cook time. I typically chip my meats hourly with a small handful of wood chips.
6. When the roast reaches your desired temperature, remove from the smoker and cover with foil.
7. Allow the meat to rest for 20-minutes.
8. While the meat is resting, preheat your oven to 400-450F.
9. Once the 20-minutes is over, put your roast in the oven and roast until it reaches your desired cooking temperature (130F/ rare, 135F/ medium rare, 140F/ medium.)
10. Remove the roast and let it rest for a minimum of 15-minutes.
It is best to use a digital thermometer, as it will make your life easy!
