Traeger Prime Rib Roast

Season the prime rib roast evenly with Traeger Prime Rib Rub. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours.

When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 500℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

Insert the probe into the thickest part of the roast, avoiding the bones and any large pockets of fat. Place the prime rib, fat-side up, directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and sear for 30 minutes (starting at a higher heat will help render the fat and develop a crispy crust).

Reduce the Traeger temperature to 300℉. Continue to cook the roast until cooked your desired temperature (120℉ for rare, 130℉ for medium-rare, 140℉ for medium, or 150℉ for well-done) is reached, 3-4 hours more. Check the internal temperature at 30-minute intervals throughout the cook time.

Remove the roast from grill and let rest for 30 minutes before carving. Enjoy!
