I've had amazing smoked prime rib (at a p fancy restaurant, haven't experimented with it myself). I would base the temps on Kenji's reverse-seared prime rib as a starting point.

Oh no, I've smoked a prime rib before to a great, delicious medium rare. I'm talking about slow cooking that sucker for 10 hours to an internal temp of 200 like a brisket.

Like I said, I've already done that and it turned out great.

Basically, I like slow smoked beef ribs more than I like prime rib. Meaty beef ribs are a bit harder to come by. I'm not talking about going and buying the best USDA Prime rib roast for this, I'm just thinking if the supermarket does a $5/lb sale on bone in rib roasts, I could try smoking it and seeing how it turns out.

Not many grand discoveries have occurred by listening to nay sayers. If it's cheap enough meat give it a shot and let us know the results. Maybe the nay sayers are right, but maybe you'll make an amazing meal by daring to go against conventional wisdom. Its cooking, not neurosurgery, get creative.

The slow and sear is expensive, but I've gotten so much use out of it. Any type of replication turns the standard Weber into a solid smoker, IMO, it is a great method to produce some super tasty results.

By replication do you mean the method I described, or are there knock off Slow n Sear's that I should know about?

So I've always heard that ribeye isn't really suited for slow smoking, but what happens if I got a 3-4 bone roast and just cooked it like a brisket? Will it get tough and dry? Always been a little curious.

I imagine it would result in pulled beef.

Our larger costco has a huge meat locker that includes dino-sized beef ribs. Since our backup freezer bit the dust we haven't had room for large purchases like that.
edit: IIRC they were around $3.99/lb

I think I need to ask my Costco folks to see if they carry the same. Everytime I've been there I haven't seen any beef ribs on the meat section put out.

Mine turned out decent. 225 for like 4 hours, one of those pre cooked spiral cut guys (13lb). Tossed on the glaze and tossed in the oven at like 450 for 10 mins at the end.

Eh, I misjudged the weather and underestimated how long to get the cooker up to temp based on the previous 300 times I've done it. I was basically doing the same style ham as you (I think mine was a 10 lber or so). Wind started to pick up, outside temps started to drop and my smoker just wasn't happy reaching a decent temp. Maybe I didn't light off enough coals, maybe they were a little damp, I tossed in the last remnants of a Kingsford bag...whatever. Got a little cockey on trying to pull off what should have been a super easy reheating job and the smoking gods disapproved.

Live and learn.

Ended up tossing it in the oven. Oven space for us is always an issue but we squeezed it in to finish it off so dinner was saved.

This Costco has both a regular cooler case meat section for the cut stuff as well as a humongous walk-in cooler with whole slabs of meat.

There's the Smokenator which is similar but doesn't do the sear thing like the Slow'n'Sear. I have one laying around somewhere. It's a good way to get smoking in a kettle if you don't know what you're doing but it's really unnecessary.

I want a knock-off BBQ Vortex as none of the resellers ship to Canada.

Who dey think gonna beat dem Bengos!
This WSM continues to amaze me. I did three briskets last night for a co-workers retirement party. I do what's called the minion method. 15 pounds of charcoal, hickory for flavor, flip the chimney upside down and only light that small amount of coals. Pour it on the center and put the vents half open. It held temp for over 12 hours without so much as a 15 degree shift overnight with no management. Also, that little Weber iGrill bluetooth thermometer I got is the best thing I ever bought.

Setting her up


Trimmed and rubbed (the third one is on the bottom rack)


Moving along nicely



The Payoff


15 minutes after the line started



I made two sauces to go with it, a South Carolina style mustard base(my favorite) and a Texas style tomato base that was ok, but I can do better. All I use for a rub on a brisket is the coarsest ground salt and black pepper I can find. Works like a charm.

Would it better to let them sit in the rub overnight and marinate, or do it tomorrow? I'm worried about them changing texture or getting too salty.

No reason to let a rub sit but a marinade you should let sit for at least 1-2 hours. Also this recipe looks good and I might even try it today.

Personal opinion but for things other than seafood, I think 2 hours is too short for most marinades.

Marinades- 4-12 hours
Brines- 12-24 hours

It's just that when I only marinade for 2 hours, the center part of the meat is still unseasoned.

Trip report: Good! I smoked for 2 hours at 225 with apple wood and it was yummy. I did find I needed a lot more oil than called for to get the rub into a consistency that could be tossed in a bowl. I also cut to cayenne pepper in half. I also tried the white sauce they recommend but it was too vinegary for me. I think I would have been happier just serving some blue cheese ranch dressing.

5 Lbs of wings took up the entire top rack of the 22.5 WSM. Any more I'd have to use the bottom rack. I had 10 guys over last night and it was a great starter app.

Hell yeah. I don't typically like dry rubs but this one was fantastic so thanks for the recipe. I halved the recipe and smoked them on a PBC, also using apple wood. They cooked a little faster than I had intended (about an hour) but they are still pretty tasty. We just dipped ours in bleu cheese and ranch.

What do you all use for thermometers to monitor the smoke temp? My smoker's thermometer is dead - it reads 100 degrees right now and it's dusk and 70 degrees and cold to the touch.

Nothing fancy, like bluetooth/wifi and all that is needed, unless it's inexpensive (like $30).
