Rib Roast Question

[Tom (Gunner)]

Hey Everyone,

I am cooking an 8 1/2 pound bone in rib roast on the WSM for Christmas. My plan is to cook it at 200-225 degrees. I have been trying to look online to see approx. how long this will take and I can't really figure it out. I am guessing 45 minutes per pound? Or is it an hour per pound? I just want to try and time it right...thanks!

Weight doesn't matter as much as shape. I would expect ~5.75 hours but this will depend on actual cooktemps. Figure in leeway on either side.

Awesome, thanks Kevin!
