Smoke Chops Standing Rib Roast
AKA, the Roast Beast… This Smoke Chops Standing Rib Roast is a bold, juicy centerpiece for any special meal. A standing rib roast is trimmed, coated with spicy ground mustard, and seasoned with a blend of black pepper, garlic powder, kosher salt, and cayenne. It’s smoked low and slow until nearly medium-rare, then finished at high heat for a perfect crust. After resting, it’s sliced and served as a flavorful, impressive dish.
