Prime Rib Pellet Grill For Beginners

prime rib roast

🥗Healthier: lean cuts of beef

💰Cheaper: chuck roast

Lean cuts are lower in fat; chuck roast is more budget-friendly.

Start with a 10 lb prime rib roast.

Separate the bones from the prime rib for a French style cut.

Salt brine the prime rib with kosher or sea salt and refrigerate uncovered for 16 hours.

Take the prime rib out of the fridge and coat it with olive oil.

Season the prime rib with prime time seasoning from PS seasoning, which includes buttery flavor, garlic, and black pepper.

Let the prime rib breathe for about an hour before cooking.

Preheat the pellet grill to 225°F.

Place the prime rib on the grill with the thickest cut towards the hottest part.

Cook the prime rib, rotating it 90° every 30 minutes for even cooking.

Probe the prime rib to check the internal temperature, aiming for around medium rare to medium.

Once the internal temperature reaches 80°F, wrap the bones in foil.

Prepare a garlic butter sauce with 2 sticks of Kerry butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme in a saucepan.

Once the internal temperature of the prime rib reaches 90°F, drizzle the garlic butter sauce over it.

When the internal temperature reaches 105°F, remove the prime rib from the grill and tent it with aluminum foil.

Crank the pellet grill up to 500°F for searing.

Sear the prime rib, rotating it every 15 minutes until it reaches an internal temperature of 122°F.
