I just purchased a 10 lb. standing rib roast on sale at Costco for $6.99 a pound. It comes slathered in olive oil, crushed garlic and other spices. It normally goes for $10.99 a lb. It's my beef rib roast in my PBC. I was originally going to cook at 8 pounder, but the guest list kept growing! Anyone have experience with one this large? Projected cook times? Any comments would be appreciated.

for planning purposes, figure 20-25 min per pound low and slow (plus 5-10 minutes to sear once you hit your preferred temp) but take all atmospheric conditions into consideration... ambient temp, humidity, wind, ect.. Follow meatheads instructions on beef rib roasts and you'll do fine. If you have the grill room, consider two pcs the same size, rather than just one massive log (bonus: more crust) -
Remember too, cook time depends on thickness. Total distance inward the heat has to travel. If it's 4 or 5" diameter that will dictate your cook time, whether it's 6" long or 12" is less relevant. I say give yourself a good 3 hrs, but obviously that depends on your cook temp, and PBCs tend to run higher than the average so you may not need it. Never done one on my PBC so I can't say with certainty.Comment

Thanks for the comments. Upon review, I think I'll cut off the ribs in order to tie it in order to have a round profile rather than tear dropped. I always get nervous the first time I cook something. Don't want to disappoint! I'll post pics. Has anyone put finished roasts in their faux cambro? Just in case if finished before guests come.Comment

Our guest list kept growing so I went to Costco this morning and purchased a 3 rib 8 pounder and cooked it and the 4 rib 10 pounder. Both came out great. I did not cut off the ribs. I did cut 3/4 of the way along the ribs, slathered a combination of olive oil, garlic and Oakland Dust and then tied them all together.Both went in the PBC at 2:00. The 8 pounder was rested and revers seared by 5:30. The 10 pounder took another hour. First time I've ever cooked a standing rib roast. Truth be told I was a nervous Nelly! One if our guests commented, "It was so good I can't walk!"Here are some pics.

That looks awesome! Good job, man! I would love to do one of those... gonna have to look into it. I wish Costco wasn't so dang far away, it's about an hour and a half each way for me, so I gotta plan way ahead!
I do have about $300 in gift certificates to my favorite gun shop, though, which is 5 minutes from there... so maybe I need to just bite the bullet and go spend some money!
