Cooked a prime rib for xmas. Was really tasty! I just followed the PBC video and used their rub (the Beef and Game rub is really good ... IMHO). Cooked really well considering how cold it was. Though I should have pulled it a few degrees earlier ... I was scrambling around and I let it sit a little long after the Thermoworks alarm went off ... but still ... pretty awesome

Just got into charcoal Dec ‘21 (PBC)
fav is brisky. Love Turkey on PBC. also Turkey in the glass,(any nice bourbon)
Bud has always been my barley pop.
Been smoking a handful of years, just got serious in the last two or three years. Thanks to AR n @glemn picked up an SnS Kamado for appx 1/3 price of new. I dont think he used it twice. Love AR! keep calm n smoke on! Miss you Bonesy.
I set the alarm to 123 ... and I did let it rest inside (I had to ... guests showed up late - I know Meathead says don't do that lol). But it took me about 5-10 additional minutes to get out there and take it off of the pit. It got a tad bit grayish on the edge and the ends were not red (seems like that's normal though). I should have probably set the alarm to 120 and pulled. Even though it was a tad more done on the edges, it was still good ... so maybe I'm being overly critical on my cook :-)
It does look pretty good but I agree I would have pulled it just a little earlier. Over the years, I have found that on cuts like rib roast it seems to get more carryover than other cuts. I usually do them at 225 until 115 MAX and get it off the heat and wrap very loosely. It will rise to 125-130 and the wife is happy. I quit worrying about any crust a long time ago but that is us, don't want any gray. It all a learning process, have fun and enjoy!
Agree ... and my first cook on the PBC with the prime rib. On the Kamado, with the deflectors ... I was able to cook with less crust and kept it red edge to edge. Still very happy with the taste though. People loved it (as did I)
If not cooking outdoors, I am cooking on the stovetop with my 14" carbon steel wok, 12" CI skillet, or in the oven with my two Lodge CI pizza pans, or two dutch ovens. I've also got a nifty Lodge carbon steel grill pan that rocks for veggies outdoors.
I have to say ... the PBC is becoming a favorite cooker. I have an addiction (as my wife says) to buying grills ... so I have a few and play around with different ones. I have a Kamado (which I do like a lot), the PBC and a Weber SmokeFire EX6 Gen2. Might be selling the SmokeFire ...
