Instructions
- Rub prime rib roast all over with olive oil. Combine salt, garlic, pepper, rosemary, thyme, smoked paprika, and mustard in a medium bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the meat, rubbing it on to stick if necessary. Let meat sit out at room temperature for 1 hour before smoking.
- When ready to smoke, heat smoker to 225°F. Place the seasoned prime rib on clean grates and close the lid.
- Smoke the prime rib for about 3 1/2 hours or until it reaches an internal temperature of 125°F for medium-rare. The rule of thumb is roughly 30-40 minutes per pound, depending on your preference for doneness and whether the roast is bone-in or boneless. You want to pull your roast from the heat when it is 5°F from your target temp since the temperature of the meat will continue to rise by about five degrees while it rests.
- This is optional, but if you want an even crustier crust, you can remove the roast from the smoker and sear it on all sides in a hot cast iron pan with a little olive oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes per side. I usually skip it, but it does give a nice finish.
- Let the roast rest for 30 minutes before slicing. Serve with horseradish sauce.
Notes
- Wood pellets: We used hickory, but apple, cherry, and oak are all good choices for beef.
