Well, we're at 104 degrees internal temp on the rib roast.
Temp on high in the smoker is 246 degrees and holding pretty steadily.
I've decided I'm going to have a look at the outside of the roast
at 110 degrees. If it looks like it has a bit of crust to it, I'll just
finish it off in the smoker to 125 degrees. Otherwise, I have the oven
preheated to 400. We'll see.

More play by play....
I put the roast in the oven at 110 degrees up to 125 degrees.
After removing it from the oven, I noted there was more of a nice
crust to it. So, I think I'll be glad I did that. meantime, I wrapped
in foil and encased in towels. Got about another 20 minutes before
carving. I also checked the temp with another thermometer and it
was right on 125. So, the ET-73 is on the mark.

That's exactly what I'm trying to do, but can't figure out how to attach. :)
In Help under "Attachments", all it says is something like - If enabled, it allows you to browse and attach files,
but doesn't say a word about how you tell if it's enabled or more importantly how to do it if it is enabled.
If some somebody can help me out here, I've got a few nice photos. ;)
I at least knew to take them in very low resolution for forums.

Thanks Mike.
I'll post them later when I have some time.
The roast came out really good. I like the rub. I think I would not use quite so much smoke next time
and maybe a wood that is milder. I used three cherry and two oak.
The ET-73 worked great. All in all; pretty successful first big smoke.
Thanks for everyone's input !
