In the rib roast listed on the opening page, looks like the rule of thumb is 20 min per lb.
Plus the 20-30 min rest period.
Did my first rib roast last night, 7 lbs
plus, internal temp 126* took 2hrs 38min, lid temp at start was 325* during cook dropped to 295*.
If you run at these temps it'll eat some Kingsford.

Internal temp of 126* when removed from WSM was taken in center of roast and was more like med-med rare with ends of meat running 132* and a solid well done. Results were great, sliced in a large glass platter and had plenty of au ju.
 
so Matt - how long did it actually take? Saw your pictures, but you didn't describe the cook. I'm thinking about a 10 pounder and was wondering if the 20-25 min per pound still holds. If so, that would mean yours took over 5 hours.
 
The 20-25 min/lb will work but you have to keeop the temp up between 300 and 325 F. Still best to use a thermometer and remove between 125 and 130 F. Hope everything works out.
