It wouldn’t be the holidays without a mouthwatering smoked prime rib roast. You can use a commercial rub for this recipe, but I recommend making our SPG (salt, pepper, garlic). Cooking a Prime Rib on a Pellet Grill is an easy process that produces amazing results.
If you don’t have a Traeger or other pellet grill, you can use this recipe on a stick burner grill. Please use our Kettle Smoked Rib Roast Recipe if you’re using a charcoal unit like the Big Green Egg or the Weber Kettle. The prime rib roast is the king of all holiday meals, and with rising beef prices, you want to make sure that your investment produces the best results.
