Ruined a prime rib on the PG500

I know you guys are feeling my pain but a $95 piece of meat got over cooked. I followed the recipe to the letter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP5UbbswYps Honestly, I had some concerns that the finish temp seemed high: 145. But followed it anyway. It came out medium well-well. I had two probes in it, one shallow and one deep that read 145 and 138 respectively; maybe my Maverick is off. But it was such a disappointment. Will try again but I'm pulling it at 125-130.

First I get your pain there is nothing like an expensive piece of beef ruined because it was over cooked.  That said I never cook my PR at that temperature nor to an internal temp of 145 degrees.  It almost sounds as if he was using FDA temps which is much higher than what most of us use when cooking meats. 

bregent:
Yeah, that's a bummer.  The video got it all wrong. 145 is medium, not medium rare. And cooking at 350, it could have coasted another 8-10 degrees during the 20 minute rest, and finished between medium well and well done.

Did the guy in the video even use a thermometer? I never saw it.

KrautBurner:
yeah,

145 is medium/medium well
not to mention carryover (if it was near that when you pulled it)


I normally go for 122-125 or so (depending on how fast temp is coming up) , and tent with foil for fifteen min on beef roasts

the last couple times I did rib roasts,   I pulled about 122,   and if people wanted theirs done a little more,  I'd finish individual servings in a cast iron pan

any oven method can be recreated in a pellet grill

350 seams High to me. I sear outside 15min a side at 500 than remove from grill and set temp to 190. Then cook until desired IT. Takes about 5-5 1/2 hrs 4 rib roast.
