Optional: I like to monitor both the temperature of my meat and the temperature of my grill internally for the duration of the cook. I do this using the Weber iGrill 2 and it affords me the ability to leave my grill closed the whole time. There are a total of 4 different probes that you can connect to this device, but for this all I need are two. The first probe I place in the meaty center of the roast, horizontally, avoiding bone. The second probe I lay on top of the grill grate right next to my prime rib to monitor the actual inside temperature. It’s heat resistant at this temperature range so it won’t melt. The probes connect to a base unit that sits right next to your grill that will tell you the temperature of each probe. It can also be controlled with an app via Bluetooth that will send you phone alerts when temperatures venture outside of a desired range. This allows you to walk away and not have to do so much meat babysitting. And due to Apple wood being sold in limited sizes, it tends to be more of a specialty lumber choice – best suited for small distinctive crafts – than for large furniture items. Apple wood lumber is a tough and durable, which makes it perfect for furniture and small woodworking crafts. Just like our Apple Wood Chips, putting Lekto’s Cherry Wood Chips to good use is incredibly easy, even for first-timers: Soak the chips in water for around 30 minutes, put them onto your hot charcoal or smoker box, and let the smoke pour out before adding your food onto the grate.

You see, when Apple wood becomes very dry, like most fruit wood types, the lumber turns extremely hard.Pull your prime rib out of the refrigerator and coat it with a thin layer of olive oil. Then, shake a generous amount of the Brisket and Prime Rib Rub over the entire roast – top, bottom and sides. Rub it in and make sure that it’s well covered. Set aside and let it sit for at least 30 minutes before cooking.

Apple Wood Chips We recommend soaking our wood chips in water for about 30 minutes at The Green Olive Firewood Company. After that, place the soaked chips in a smoking box or directly into the charcoal in the BBQ or Smoker. This allows the smoke to permeate the food and enhance its flavour. After all, cooking is all about how delicious the food is. You can use Apple wood for carving. And thanks to its hardiness, it is incredibly good at holding up against tougher carving techniques such as Chip Carving and Inlay Work. Now, on one hand this means that Apple wood can hold onto all of the finely carved lines of your project. Better yet, any unfortunate scratches and scrapes are unlikely to strip away that detail over time.Its dense grain means nails and screws can really grip and take hold. And its heavy durability makes it great both for wood turning, and for making long-lasting furniture. Our apple smokin’ wood chips are crafted using waste wood punning harvested from orchards. Apple wood imparts a mild, sweet fruity smoke flavour to the foods you are cooking on your BBQ Grill. Apple wood complement game, fish, and beef but are perfect for pork and poultry. Try mixing them with our whiskey oak smokin’ wood chips for amazing results. However, Apple wood isn’t really something you’d get in bulk from your local sawmill. Its more expensive on average (especially when compared to the price of say White Pine). Next get your grill ready for indirect cooking. Prepare for a long cook by adding enough charcoal. In general, prime rib will take about 35 minutes per pound when cooking at 225 degrees which will deliver a rare roast. The length of cook will depend on how many pounds you are smoking and the level of doneness you want to achieve so plan accordingly. Place 3-4 chunks of apple wood in your charcoal. Place a drip pan full of water beneath the portion of the grate where the prime rib will sit and then preheat to 225°F.
