Smoked Prime Rib Roast, we did 2 Prime Rib Roasts with sweet potato fries, stuffing, broccoli, and smoked spinach stuffed tomatoes. We live in a senior’s community and we were able to have a few of the folks over to share dinner with us. They left smiling and happy and full. That makes us happy and thankful that we could add a little family and fellowship to their lives.

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on one of our Grills or Smokers, but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.  Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two…

Backyard BBQ
A Wood Pellet Grill Recipe

Cooking Directions: Memphis Wood Fire Pellet Grill/Smoker

Rub your roast down with your rub working it into the meat. I like to add a thick garlic pepper crust, so I shake a good coat of the dried garlic and coarse black pepper on it, also. Let rest and all the seasoning blend, when your roast is around room temperature you are ready to put it on the grill.

NOTE: Your roast will cook more evenly if it goes on at room temperature, where as burgers hold together if they go on the grill cols.

Preheat your grill to 225* (105c) and light your smoke tube. I like to add a little smoke flavor to my cooks, so I use a smoke tube but you can skip step this if you like.

Place your roast in pans to catch the dripping and put them directly onto the grill and let them get happy for around 3 ½ hours. Only use time as a guide line as every peace of meat will be a little different. So, you want to cook to an internal temp around 123* (50c) for rare.

About half way through your cook you can add any sides you like. (We did spinach stuffed tomatoes) Now you can cook your sides and pick up the wood fired flavor from the grill. I did an hour here at 225* (105c) then pulled my sides.

When the meat reaches an internal temp around 123* (50c) pull it off, cover it and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. This will be rare. Keep in mind the meat will continue to rise another 5-10 degrees as it rests. This temperature is what they refer to as “Gourmet” and U.S.A.D. safe for beef is 125* (53c). I used a Maverick ET 732 and ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temperatures.

Note: I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also you are only smoking at temps less than 250 degrees, anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.

About Our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Monument, Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti

    I love this! Going to have to make it for my wife and kids one day soon! I have a RecTec (have you heard of them? Incredible temperature and smoke control), and I have yet to mess anything up if I stick to the recipes and times!

    Do you know about how long per pound it takes to cook? My 3 rib is a little on the smaller side weighing in at 4.25lbs. Thanks!

      Sorry I don’t. There are to many things that can affect the time. I use “Time” as a “Rule of Thumb”. I also use a wireless meat probe for real time temps. I like the Maverick “Steak” for this…
