Everything You Need To Know About Prime Rib - Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ

Thank you for watching my video on everything you need to know about prime rib. On this video, I not only cook an amazing prime rib but I also talk about the different grades of prime rib and how to trim and cook a prime rib properly. This prime rib was a select prime rib and it turned out better than any prime grade prime rib I've ever cooked.

I smoked a Prime 16.1 pound (after trimming) 6 bone monster on Christmas Eve on my WSM 22”. Hickory wood and 6 hours at 225° and it came out perfect. It was $450 @ $27.99lb and I’m glad I didn’t mess it up! Also, honored that my dad paid for it and trusted me to cook it.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Very nice! There's nothing better than cooking a good meal for the family.👍

[@HughsReviews]

@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ that’s a fact. It’s next level when Dad asks you to do what he’s done for the first time. Pretty special moment for a pit-connoisseur

[@_m_K_.]

Even for usda prime out here in California, 27.99 is ridiculously high.

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Prime Rib Perfection Joe! You're making me hungry brother!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Yo Rus! Thanks so much buddy. Now you know how it feels when I watch your videos. 😁👍

[@NoneYaBiz5]

Aside from great cooks, content and the way you put your vids together, the part that stands out to me the most, is the fact that when you take a test taste, you get a large enough bite to actually taste. Keep doing what you're doing fella.

[@stevegrieb6596]

Got lucky and caught a break on the weather and made this for New Year Day. Excellent.

[@petethehandyman9185]

Nothing like a rib roast! Beautiful

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Pete!👍

[@anthonyburas5818]

I had both a select and choice grade prime ribs this past week and in my experience the choice was far more tender and more flavorful. There was only a 50c/lb difference in price

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice! I like choice too. 👍

[@butopiatoo]

GREAT basic prime rib approach! always helpful to know the basics before delving into variations. Great example of using select and making a wonderful meal for a bargain price without sacrificing quality or flavor.

[@markwilliams779]

Happy new year man! I hope you and your family stay safe!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Mark! Happy New Year to you too buddy 👍

[@Keith80027]

Looks real good Joe and thanks for letting us know we can use select and make a great prime rib!

[@markmccaleb4038]

That was such a thing of beauty! What are your thoughts on salt brining overnight, particularly with larger cuts?

[@genedowen9183]

I have got to try this.

[@dennyo7798]

Joe, I enjoyed the the visit this evening. I do a select every year and leave it it the packers cryovac for 60 days every year. Then at Christmas time I whack my roast and steak the rest. Seems the select grade can be a positive choice grade that we cannot distinguish between in the manner that I do it. I left a tip tonight for the tips that you have given to me! Many thanks and Happy Holidays!, Denny O.

[@shawnslade1344]

Denny O Kelly the Railroader?

[@mikester695]

Good job. Never had the select. Usually go with choice. 40 year ago we'd get the Prime whole NY Strips from IBP . They were only around $2.80 #. The Choice were $2.30 #. But you to get the whole box of 6. I'd get 5 buddies to split them. I'd do the cutting. Taught them how to freezer wrap. One kid forgot them in his trunk for 2 weeks. We'd had gone out clubbing after.

[@bbqjones]

Great video. I always learn something from you even after watching the other 'experts' videos. :) 💯🔥

Hi Joe, what pellets do you recommend for this cook? I just got myself a Pitts & Spitts Maverick and only have the oak pellets that came with it.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I only use Jealous Devil Pellets. Excellent flavor. 👍

Wow....amazing.

Good ol prime ribs :D *Slaps knee* Whooooo-wheeeee!

[@mikesionu]

Hey I got this from ATBBQ's Channel. When trussing, f you do a double loop on the first loop it will hold better on the first cinch, I was a bit surprised how well that first cinch held. Anyway thanks for all your hard work/content! I would reckon that is super hard doing a food truck and a content channel. Good luck with all you do! 🤘🤘

12:34, the more I learn the secrets of the trade, the more I realize why delicious stuff is SOOO BAAAD for you.

[@benitoramos5191]

Really like your videos doing a good job

[@paulmillen2101]

Excellent video, Joe. I've been thinking lately about the end pieces having several times the seasoning as the internal pieces. Think of a bread loaf. The bread crust is comparable to the seasoning on a roast like a rib roast or loin. The end slices of the bread loaf have much more crust than the interior slices. Just as the end slices of a roast have much more seasoning. I'm wondering if a small amount of seasoning in beef broth injected into a rib roast would make it even better for those who receive an interior slice but prefer the more highly seasoned end cuts or who simply think that a roast lacks flavor.

[@jazzmaster9426]

Awesome!!!

[@timmckenzie9473]

Great video!

[@MC_Home9898]

That meat looks awesome!

[@rbljackson]

Ive done chicken, ribs, pork butts and briskets, BUT.....i still fear the prime rib....LOL. Its on my list though. Thanks for including the trimming portion at the beginning. The cost of prime rib has scared me off a few times, but one of these days im gonna have to dive in and try one.

[@swayme67]

Chef, great video, thank you for the lesson. Would you consider using the music for intros, outtros, and maybe a highlight during the video? When it plays throughout, it's distracting. Otherwise, good stuff, keep these coming, and again, thank you! Be safe, be well, cook on!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks for watching. I'll consider that. 👍

[@Crakaveli]

Did you take the internal temp after it sat on the counter for 45 minutes?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

No I didn't but if I had to guess, I bet the temperature was around 130ish maybe even 135. 👍

[@Crakaveli]

I mean before you cooked it.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

@@Crakaveli yes, it was almost 68 degrees.

[@mikehappel4899]

Bro, I love you!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Mike!🤘

[@jaredlampe8988]

How much time can I expect the Cook to take?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

It all depends on the size. I would say on average 2 1/2 hours.

[@The_Ren]

I never see select for sale. Where do you get it?

I am sorry that’s a rib roast or a standing rib roast the word Prime implies the grade. I love your videos thsnks

Shoot, just missed select rib roast at $4.99!! I'll keep my eye out....seems after christmas I might find some deals. Costco just reduced their Prime grade brisket .50 to 4.99 but I think it will go lower. Asked the costco butcher what they do with the brisket after date code...ground into burger!!!

Joe is the kind of dad we all wish we had

[@chrisd2p2]

Looks good but this is not "prime" grade... I know its a common term but was hoping for a true prime cut

[@reyhernanandez5640]

I never understood why prime rib is served really rare ? Can someone explain please

[@brianveestrom6784]

I'll take a stab at an explanation, the texture and flavour of prime rib is best when cooked medium rare. Some people like it more rare, and some like it more medium. When the meat is cooked more, the texture becomes tougher, less flavourful and dry in the fibers. It is all mouth feel and flavour. Rey, the best way is to cook smaller portions to different temperatures and find what you and your guests like. That is the way to go brother.

[@bradcampbell624]

And I know many folks are put off by what they consider blood on the platter. Actually, meat muscle is about 75% water. When rare to medium rare is sliced or poked, the liquid coming out is actually water and meat proteins, the prominent red color being myoglobin (which carries oxygen to the muscles). In other words, it isn't blood (which has already been drained during the slaughtering process). The most critical thing is to let the meat "rest" before carving for it to stay juicy, even with smaller cuts and poultry.

[@GrimmGrimm72]

Anyone else catch the Two Live Crew reference?

[@kurtmailloux8664]

It says 138 dollars on it? Not 70 what am I missing

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

The sale price was taken off at the register. 👍

[@ReustersPlace]

At $230+ for that piece of meat… I’d be scared to leave it alone. Because while you paid $70, the sticker said you paid 4 times that and I nearly had a stroke

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

They were on sale for $7.99 per pound plus if you have their app and clip a coupon, it was $4 per pound. 👍

Let me guess, it's too red for your taste?

[@6arley4liv3]

Maybe show us the results when you get done cooking it. Nothing like blood running out of your food.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Funny comment but let me educate you. The red juices that you see is not blood, It's called myoglobin. Blood runs through veins, not meat. Myoglobin carries oxygen to the muscles and is clear in color but it does turn redish when exposed to heat and oxygen. You can pay me back by subscribing to my channel. 👍
