निर्देश

Preparation:

Preheat your smoker to 250°F.

Coat the prime rib evenly with olive oil. This helps the rub adhere and creates a beautiful crust.

Generously season the prime rib with Duce’s Wild Texas Rub and a generous amount of freshly cracked black pepper. Make sure to cover all sides for even flavor.

Smoking:

Place the seasoned prime rib directly on the smoker grates, bone-side down if applicable.

Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast to monitor the internal temperature.

Smoke at 250°F for approximately 2.5-3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 125°F for medium-rare (adjust time based on desired doneness).

Searing (Optional):

To achieve a crustier exterior, preheat a grill or oven to 500°F.

Once the prime rib reaches 125°F, sear it on high heat for about 5-10 minutes to form a caramelized crust.

Resting:

Remove the prime rib from the smoker and let it rest for 20-30 minutes, loosely tented with aluminum foil. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures tender, juicy slices.

Serving:

Slice the prime rib to your preferred thickness and serve with your favorite sides.

Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs for added presentation and aroma.
