So I decided to pull a rib roast out of the freezer and smoke it up yesterday. I had some errands to run which took longer than expected and got it on later than I wanted to. No problem... so I thought. It was one of those pieces of meat which didn't want to come up to temp. I like doing PR at 230*-240* until it hits 125 IT. I pull it off and rest, then put it in at 500*-550* for 6 to 8 mins to crisp up the outside of the meat. It was just under 5#, so I figured 3 to 3 1/2 hours to get it to 125*. It took almost 4 1/2 hours. Dinner wound up being late. When I cut it it wasn't as tender as I would have liked it to be. The flavor was good, but not one of my better PR's that I've done. I made a cocnut pie for desert and had a nice scotch after dinner, which helped out. Thanks for looking.
