Title: Egg Heads --
Post by: jim on December 23, 2009, 01:35:11 pm
Got a 15lb Prime rib and I have been eyeing the Large Green Egg on my Back porch. Measured the egg and it's 18" on the rack, going to cut the roast in 1/3 and 2/3 this way I'll have both medium's and medium rares. Set the temp at 250 deg and let run 4 hours -- wrap and rest for 45 to 60 minutes. Cut and serve --
Question -- does this sound " Good" for you all that use Green Eggs every time you smoke.

Sorry, I don't use a Green Egg. But it sure sounds good to me.

Jim,  I wold put some sort of pizza stone, plate setter or such between the bottom of the roast.  Other than that, sounds great.

Mine is going to be done on the FEC

That's not a pie tin, that's a pizza pan. I'd come over and supervise and taste test, but I think I'll go watch the FEC in action...It's closer, and he's a Dave too.  :D

Anything that starts with Prime and ends with Rib sounds great to me. The pizza stone in the middle would be good.

Jim, this one time i like to use the polder.  i set 125, as i like med rare and don't want to over shoot the roast.

one small chunk of apple wood is good too.

Dave, have you ever used oak for rib roast? I'm thinkin' I'm gonna cook mine tomorrow also. I have plenty of apple, but lots of oak, too. Ah, what the heck. I'll use one of each.

Oak will certainly get it hot........ no real flavor though......

That's what I need for my ash pan in the UDS, so I can expand my coal box an inch and a half...

Yep, I was talking about the Thermo's you can put in the middle of the roast and see outside of the cooker.  I don't like to overshoot a roast of this quality.

Gee, and I thought it meant pot holder. But he's got kids, so I didn't think he needed somewhere to hold his pot. And a BGE would be a bad place, anyway.

It's not in the glossary, so I guess it has no bearing on BBQ. ::) ::) ::)

Might be late on this one. I would not let it rest so long and cook at 325
