Hi Dr. BBQ:

Help!!  I want to do a prime rib roast for 5 people for Christmas on my Green Egg and of course I want it to be perfect so I am coming to the "Expert" I would assume I do it indirect but thought I better ask to be sure plus......

1. What size should I get?
2.  Bone in or bonless?
3.  What temp should I maintain my Egg at?
4.  How long should I cook it for medium rare?

Plus anything else you think I should know.  Thank you so much for your help!!
Merry Christmas!!

Hi Kathy,

For 5 people I’d get at a 5 to 6 lb. boneless “USDA Choice” Ribeye roast. I like bone in too but it’s a little harder to cook and carve so boneless is probably best for you.

I like to wet mine down with Worcestershire and then apply a heavy coating of a salty peppery garlicky herby BBQ rub.

Prepare the Egg indirect to cook at 325 with just a little bit of mild wood like cherry or apple.

Cook the roast until it reaches an internal temp of 125-130. This will probably take 2-3 hours but you really need to take the temp to get it right. When it’s done, remove it to a platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest for 15-20 minutes. Slice and eat.

Dr. BBQ
