4.4 lb Rib roast

Need to get this roast done soon Hoping today is the day. Need suggestions on cooking. Father in law loves prime rib and I promised him one and didn't get to cook it on Saturday. Based on research here...

Ultimate goal is a medium rare to medium max 140 center. Thinking of reverse sear on the egg indirect with plate setter at "270" grate temperature till internal of 125-128. Foil will bringing egg up to 500 for direct sear forming crust. Then rest for 30-45 minutes.

Just wondering on how much residual cooking I should expect while waiting for egg to climb. 4-5 degrees? Then how long sear and what residual heat to get to final 140. Guessing no matter what it needs to come off totally before 135 for final rest.

Father in law likes medium minimum. Figure the outer edges will be nice for him while closer to the middle will be more medium to medium rare.

Should I have rubbed this thing last night? Or will with rub before cook be enough?

Any problems with my plan? Thanks to all.

Thanks for the link Gore. Still getting used to the seach engine here. Good info and made my mouth water. If all goes well today will be a good day.

Follow up: Not the best but...

Went with a lower temp cooking it at 250. Took a little longer than I would have liked as the fam likes to eat early and everyone was standing around waiting while I explained it had to rest as well.

Being a virgin, I didn't inspect the roast that well. Got it at Publix and saw string wrapped around it. Assumed it was already deboned or if not the the bones had been cut away and retied. Neither was true. Desperately trying to get it on the grill I opted to just rub and go. Paid a little price when it came time to carve.

Was a little disappointed in the taste/texture, but it wasn't a great piece of meat to begin with. Only one they had out and I didn't have time to wait.

Definitely will try again with hopefully better results since I know what to look for and what not to do - ie try a meal like this on a weeknight.

I apologize for the delay, couldn't get the pictures to upload Wednesday and actually had to work yesterday. Thanks for the help all.

Yeah I definitely need to try to increase the quality side instead of the discount side. Will also try to talk to butcher instead of grabbing prewrapped pieces. Need to stop rushing everthing, but there is never enough time! Ha Ha.

More virgin territory to cross tonight. My first overnight with 15lbs of butts. Gotta loose it sometime!

If you aint makin mistakes you aint doin nothing, and I am always doin sumpthin.:-D
