Smoke/cook at 250 for 12 minutes per pound.

We used two 3 lb boned rib roast. Used four hours to let the rub set in. Our guest wanted end pieces and well done, so we placed a polder probe in their roast and when the internal temperature got to 135 degrees we removed our roast, foiled and placed it in the cooler. When their roast got to 170 degrees we divided both roast and ate the best any of us had ever eaten. Ours was medium-rare and theirs - UH! somewhere between well done and incinerated.
I was surprised that I needed no additional wood in the wood box. The roast was not overpowered with flavors that took away from the meat.
