Best roast ever? Try slow roasting

I admit I :eyebrow: when Monello said he was going to do the rib roast low and slow. I'm a hot and fast rib roaster and I was sure the low/slow would overcook it.

Nope.

The roast was a gorgeous med rare and extremely flavorful. He is in charge of Christmas dinner from now on. :starcat:

This is a good application for immersion cooker/Sous Vide. Let it cook overnight at 170 degrees, take it out and stick it under the broiler for 3-5 minutes to get a nice crust.

My smoker will hold at that temp pretty easily, maybe just put it wrapped to keep the smoke to a minimum.

I have always been hit or miss with the smoker. If you have the skills and the tools then more power to you, i'm sure it comes out great. My $39 immersion cooker does an okay job for my tastes.

We've smoked a standing rib roast a couple times. Trying to convince the guy to do that again this year. I can never remember his specifics - temps, times, wraps, etc. He takes care of all that, but I do remember it being pretty straight forward. Also that it was and still is the best tasting meal I've ever had.
