So I've committed myself to preparing prime rib for our family's Christmas dinner. I've only smoke one other prime rib. It was OK but not spectacular. I plan to use Meathead's technique. A few questions...
1. We have a head count of 20. Do I need 20 lbs of meat? Seems like a lot. I usually figure 1/2 lb per person when I do pork shoulder, but everything I've read says 1 lb per person of prime rib.
2. Is there a ballpark estimate of cook times? I cook by IT, but I can't find a good rule to estimate cook times. I plan to cook at 225.
Wish me luck!
