Christmas Prime Rib

I had a chance to cook a prime rib for our Christmas dinner this year.  Here's how it all went together.  I started with a 6 lb. standing rib roast, rubbed with some olive oil.  The roast was rubbed down with a generous amount of Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic Seasoning and some John Henry's Brisket rub.

I smoked the prime rib for two hours at 225 degrees on my Yoder Smokers pellet grill.  After two hours, I cranked up the grill to 325 and finished it off until it was a good medium (around 150 degrees).

I let it rest for about 45 minutes wrapped in foil and then carved into it.  Here's how it looked.


This was a real treat for our family for Christmas.  It was served with a horseradish sauce consisting of some mayo, prepared horseradish, and some whole grain mustard.  We will definitely be doing this again.  Hope you all had a blessed Christmas!  See you next year!
