I have only done one before and I used Montreal Steak seasoning on it and slit some holes in the roast a put cloves of garlic in. I thought it was great.
I usually do standing rib roasts 4-5 times per year... 3-5 ribs, always choice Angus or better
I rub the roast with reserved bacon drippings first, then cover completely with a seasoning blend from Tastefully Simple called "Garlic,Garlic", fresh ground Rosemary, Sea Salt & Pepper...This makes a spectacular crust for each slice
Smoke to 125*-130*...depending on the guests....a knock-out every time
