Prime Rib in the smoker... Anyone try this?

[duramax]

I was thinking of trying a prime rib this year for Christmas in my smoker. Has anyone tried this or have any great recipes? Thanks in advance for any info.

yes it is awesome
smoker temp at 225-250 smoke until the roast temp is 140 double wrap in foil and pull out of smoker and place into a cooler for at least an hour to rest I use Down Yonder bbq rib eye steak rub great stuff

We smoke a prime rib every Christmas.  I rub it with salt, pepper, granulated garlic and let it soak overnight.  I smoke it light with only 1 pan of hickory.  Cook it at 225 until it's rare.  I use a meat thermometer at about 3 1/2 hours.  Like dogtuk says, you gotta let it rest before you carve it or you'll lose the juice.  I've never wrapped mine, but it sounds like a great idea & I will this time.  Gotsta keep the juice, man!

Enjoy!

Here's a idea
over night marinade
1 1/3 cups red wine
1 1/3 cups red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
4 tsp dried rosemary
4 minced garlic gloves
2 tsp dried thyme
3 lb roast
drain it
Dry rub
1 1/2 tbs fresh cracked pepper
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
apply rub and let stand 30 or mins then add to a pre heated smoker fat side up.
 save marinade for basting if you want. Just put it in a sauce pan bring to boil for a couple mins then baste every 30 or so mins til desired temp and rest.

Wish i had a pic, been smoking prime for a couple years now. I wouldn't cook it anyother way. I rub mine for a day with the basic; salt, pepper, rosemary, and a little worcestershire. I also make a couple stabs with a knife and impregnate with some garlic cloves,halved. 225 untill 120 then cover with foil for 10 to20 min. I also use a spray bottle filled with apple juice and a cup of my favorite whisky, every time i check the fire just spritz to keep moist. You can't go wrong, and they will think your a master chef at the dinner table. Good luck!

I can see I'm gonna have to act quick to get my prime rib this year.  There aint gonna be none left.
