Prime Rib Double Header

[Jeff R]

Well, not really prime, but fine looking Choice rib roast from Costco.

I haven't posted pics in quite a while so I thought I would share my weekend from MN with our sub zero temps and 30 mph winds a howling.

Started prepping on Friday night with Chris's Montreal recipe. Worchester sauce and Montreal Steak seasoning, then wrapped until Saturday. Saturday night, fired up the WSM for high heat. Had about 325* at the grate and around 360* at the vent. Then put this 8 lb hunk on with a couple of golf ball size chunks of hickory. Wanted to use cherry but was out.

Pulled it at 131*, let it rest, and began to carve it at 138*

Plated it up with some asparagus and my bacon ranch chedder potatoes.

Now on to the double header as this was a calculated foodie weekend. I got a meat slicer for Christmas and tonight we had the Ultimate French Dip sandwich

Served with Johnny's Au Jus

Cleaned up the slicer and put it away til next weekend. The Buckboard Bacon is currently brining.

Yeah, I failed to pay attention to the weather forecast during the week since I ain't scared of the cold. Missed the wind was coming Fortunately the L shape of the house had me pretty well blocked and I did get it done around 20 min per pound. Of course I miscalculated my start time so dinner was at 8:00. You know what they say....It's done when it's done.
