Thanks SmokinOkie! I am not computer smart I am seeing! Forguring out this site is frustrating! Thank goodness using my smoker is not that frustrating!
I have 2 prime ribs totaling 11.5 pounds. I rubbed them with rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper and let them sit overnight with the rub mixture. I have my smoker preheating at 250*. After reading the Prime Rib 101, It is my understanding I need to smoke it for 12 mins per pound at 250* and then turn it down to 140 and hold it at that temperature for 4 hours. My question is what internal temperature should the prime rib reach if you want the roast to be medium rare? What temperature should the meat reach after smoking it for 12 mins per pound at 250*?
Also I did not notice what wood you would use for the smoke either. I am considering using apple and pecan as I don't want a strong smoke flavor. Any advice would be appreciated!
Once my prime rib is done, I will try and post some pictures.
