Simple Reverse Seared Prime Rib, we love the “BIG Beef” flavor of prime rib. We found them on sale and brought home a few excellent prime rib roasts for us to smoke. We thought of how we could do a prime rib roast, and we decided we would do a reverse sear. We smoke it until it reaches an internal temperature of 100° and then finish it with a hot sear.
Give your prime rib roast a good dusting with Country Bob's Seasoning Salt and set it out to come up to room temperature.
Preheat the grill to 225°F. Insert your meat probe and place the roast directly onto the grill grates.
Smoke the roast for 1.5 hours at 225°F until the internal temperature reaches 100°F.
Remove the roast from the grill and place it in a covered container to keep warm while the grill heats to 400°F. A Dutch oven with a lid works well. During this time, the internal temperature will continue to rise, reaching around 111°F.
