Coffee-Crusted Prime Rib
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + marinating Grill: 2 hours + standing
YIELD: 12 servings.
The secret to this rib roast from the Taste of Home Test Kitchen is in the coffee rub. Allowing the rub to penetrate overnight heightens the flavor.
Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon finely ground coffee
-
2 teaspoons chili powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
-
1 teaspoon ground mustard
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
-
1 beef ribeye roast (4 to 5 pounds)
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
2 cups soaked wood chips, optional
Directions
-
1.
In a small bowl, combine the first 9 ingredients. Tie the roast at 1-1/2- to 2-in. intervals with kitchen string. Rub seasonings over roast; cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
-
2.
Remove roast from refrigerator 1 hour before grilling; brush with oil.
-
3.
Prepare grill for indirect heat, using a drip pan, adding half the wood chips if desired. Place roast over drip pan and grill, covered, over medium-low indirect heat for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), adding remaining wood chips after 1 hour. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
