Just want to say that the short ribs you all helped with turned out perfect and though they take a tad longer to cook they have opened a new level in smoking for us.
We have a great 5 lb prime rime for Christmas saved $3.25 a lb at Publix in Bonita Florida. We figure that we would use 225 cooking temp at 45 min. per lb to get us to 125 internal , then into the cooler for an hour. 3 hour of oak
Looking for med -rare.
Merry Christmas to all !

and do 200F until an IT of 120F, rest and then into a 500F oven for 8 minutes or so to get the crust on the outside.
So the hour rest is not a problem?

Well, no. You've got it foiled so it doesn't get "cold," you get some "reheat" when you crisp it in the hot oven, and people normally serve/eat roast beef warm rather than hot.
If you're worried, throw a towel over the wrapped roast while it's resting (Try saying "resting rare wrapped roast" three times).

I read you loud and clear! It's going to be another beautiful thing!
Best to you and your family this Christmas!
