Pellet Grill Prime Rib Recipe

Prime rib is one of the finest cuts of beef you can buy. Also known as a standing rib roast, pellet grill prime rib is a great choice for holiday dinner, an extra special romantic date, or any night when you want a fancy meal without a ton of effort. Comment end It’s especially popular on major holidays, such as Christmas or Valentine’s Day.

The prime rib is cut from the primal rib of the cow and contains between 6 and 12 ribs. It’s cut from higher up on the cow which makes it more tender. The additional tenderness is because those higher-up cuts don’t get as much use, so they have great fatty marbling and they’re not as tough. It’s the opposite of tougher cuts like brisket, which come from parts of the cow that get used more in walking and standing. Tender cuts like the prime rib make up just 8% of the cow, so it’s more limited and may be more expensive than other cuts of meat.

Ribeye steaks are also cut from the prime rib. Essentially, they are the same cut of meat, but ribeye is cooked and served as a steak, and a prime rib is cooked and served as a roast.

There can be a wide variety of different quality grades and a wide price range. “Prime” is most likely the highest grade of beef you will find at the grocery store followed by “Choice” and then “Select”.

I’ve made amazing smoked prime rib with all three grades of beef so don’t be afraid if you don’t want to shell out the big bucks for Prime grade beef.

If you really want to live the high life and impress friends and family you might look into ordering a Wagyu Rib Roast online but be prepared to take out a small line of credit to pay for it.

Once you have decided what grade of beef you want and where to buy it you will most likely see a large display loaded with Rib roasts of all different sizes.

Be sure to look for a bone-in prime rib if possible, but boneless prime rib is also tasty. Look at the cross-section of the Roast and look for bright red color with nicely marbled meat.

If it looks gray or discolored, avoid those cuts. The roast should be even from one end to the other, so it cooks evenly.

Some Prime Rib Roasts will already be tied and the rib bones partially separated. If not, you can ask the butcher to tie off your roast.

My general rule when deciding how large a roast you’ll need is each bone will serve 2-3 adults. If you have eight adults, then a four-bone Rib Roast will give everyone a healthy portion.

Then you can let everyone fight over who gets the bones. Most full rib roasts have 11 bones, so unless you serve more than 23-25 people you should be fine with one roast.

If you are serving 3 guests per bone you will be fine but make sure you have a good sharp knife because you’ll be making half to three-quarter-inch slices.

The rib roast prep begins days before it’s time to cook your roast. Alton Brown recommends pulling your roast out of the packaging one week ahead of cooking.

I think that’s great, but 2-3 days seems fine for me. When you unwrap the rib make sure to pat it dry and place it on a sheet pan with a cooling rack.

Do not season the meat and place it uncovered in the fridge to dry out. This will slightly intensify the beef flavor but more importantly, it will firm up the roast for a better texture when smoked.

On the day of the cook, take the roast out about 60 minutes before you place it on the smoker. Ninety minutes on a more giant 8-11 bone roast.

Before seasoning the smoked prime rib, lightly rub a neutral-flavored oil ( I prefer Avocado Oil) all over the roast, including the bones and underneath.

For the seasoning, you can go with a spice rub or you can make your own. The flavors you want are pretty simple, including salt, pepper, onion, garlic, and rosemary.

I use the Prime Rib Rub from Spiceology. I’m a big fan of all of their spices and rubs and highly recommend their products (not sponsored…yet?)
