Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 lb cherry flavored smoke chips
5 lbs boneless prime rib roast
½ cup olive oil
2 Tbsp Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Beef Base
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp cracked black pepper
2 Tbsp freshly chopped rosemary
1 bottle (12-ounce) beer
1 large fresh rosemary sprig

Directions

  • 1

    Preheat the Big Green Egg® to 400°F. Set EGG® for indirect cooking. Add the smoke chips to the EGG and finish setting up for indirect cooking with the plate setter and porcelain grid.

  • 2

    Whisk the olive oil, Roasted Beef Base, garlic powder, black pepper and chopped rosemary in a small bowl.

  • 3

    Rub the rib roast all over with the marinade. Using butchers twine, tie the roast in 2-inch intervals. Place the roast in a 3-inch deep grill-proof pan.

  • 4

    Pour the beer into the bottom of the pan and add the roast, fat side up, to the pan. Thread the rosemary sprig under the twine.

  • 5

    Place the pan directly onto the porcelain grid. Smoke for 20 minutes. Lower the temperature of EGG to 225°F and continue to smoke for 1 ½ - 2 hours or until the internal temperature is 125°F when checked with an instant read thermometer.

    Carefully remove the pan from EGG and let the roast rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
