A little prime rib on a saturday afternoon

July 31, 2016, 08:24 AM

Hey all. This my 1st prime rib roast on my Lonestar Grillz (lsg) offest. Not to big about 4lbs. bonless. The cook would have been great if not for the 3+ inches of heavy rain during the 3 1/2 hrs. it took to cook this little puppy. Aside from that all went well. My temps held pretty steady 226-248 the whole time. I dry brined as per MH advice in the recipe section and used a slightly modified version of Mrs O'learys cow crust rub (wet). The roast came out a perfect medium, my wife dosn't like anything rare. Here are tie pics. The roast, roast w'rub, the pit (notice the umbrella) best $40 I spent just starting to rain. The roast before reverse searing, after and the final pruduct

Oh man awesome job. I also like the trifecta of Tel-Tru's on the lid. If I get "something" pretty soon I really want to save up for one of their vertical offsets.

We have two weber kettle grills (one LARGE and one small/average), the SnS and the Weber Smokey Mountain 18" smoker. We use both natural lump charcoal and KNB for smoking and measure our temps with a Maverick 733, thermopen and MK4. Favorite beer depends on what is cooking (alt answer is yes).

I like the set up you have over the grill. How does that umbrella attach into the Pergola?

I used 2 U bolts so the umbrella can slide in. I also drilled a hole through the wood pole and rafter to put a "pin" through it to keep it in place. So its removable.
