Costco only cells Choice and Prime UDSA grades of Beef and both are very competitively priced year round. Chose a nice 10 lb Choice Beef Ribeye Boneless Roast to serve this year for our Christmas dinner. Although “Prime” normally refers to a ‘grade’ of meat most people call this a “Prime Rib”. When I asked the Butcher what the difference is between a ‘Ribeye’ and a ‘Rib Roast’ he informed me that one has a bone and the other has the bone removed. You normally pay more per pound for a Ribeye because you’re not paying for the bone. The Ribeye Roast lends itself beautifully to Low-and-Slow smoking/roasting. Take the Roast to 130º – 135ºF for Medium Rare – Center is very pink, and the roast is slightly brown toward the exterior.
- Rub the Ribeye Boneless Roast with Annie’s Roasted Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and your favorite Prime Rib & Roast Seasoning
- Wrap in plastic and refrigerate overnight

- Preheat the MAK 2 Star Wood Pellet BBQ Smoker-Grill to 240ºF for 30 minutes with Pacific Pellet Hickory or Oak Gourmet BBQ Pellets
- Smoke the Ribeye Boneless Roast until the internal temperature reaches 135ºF
- Took just shy of 4 hours to go from an internal temperature of 36ºF to 135ºF … Always cook to internal temperatures and not times found in recipes
- Rest loosely under a foil tent for 30 minutes to allow the natural juices to reconstitute into the meat before serving
