RECIPES

Smoked Herb Crusted Prime Rib
Ingredients:
8-9lb Bone In Prime Rib
Sea Salt or Kosher Salt
2 TBSP Cracked Black Pepper
2 TBSP Fresh Rosemary
1 TBSP Dried Oregano
4 Cloves Minced Fresh Garlic
1 TSP MSG
2 TBSP Granulated Garlic
2 TBSP Granulated Onion
2 Sticks of Salted Butter

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Sprinkle the roast with salt liberally and set aside for 30 minutes to 1 hour to let the salt absorb and penetrate. If you can do this the night before and let it set in the fridge uncovered overnight.
2. Load the Woodfire XL with Smokin Pecan pellets and set it to the smoker setting and 225F (107C) degrees. You can set the time to 5 hours, this does not really matter we will change this in the app later. Press start so the smoker will ignite the pellets and preheat.
3. Melt the butter. Add all of the spices to butter and mix well.
4. Slather the garlic herb butter all over the roast.
5. When the smoker says add food place the roast directly on the grill grate. Add in one of the included probes to the center of the roast. Open the app and select the temperature cook setting, pick a target temp of 115F or 46C degrees.
6. Top off the hopper and reignite as needed. When the target temp is reached take the roast off and tent it with foil. Set the Woodfire XL to Broil (500F or 260C).
7. Once the unit is ready and up to temp add the roast back and cook it until a nice crust develops. It should only take a few minutes. Also watch the internal temp, we are shooting for a final temp of 134F (56C). I pull at 130F (54C) so it carry over cooks and reaches that 134 (56C). Once it hits that 130 (54C) pull it off and tent it to rest for at least 30 minutes.

Details:
- Smoked at 225F (107C) for 3 Hours and 50 Minutes
- Rested for 1 Hour
- Broiled at 500F (260C) For 10 Minutes
- Rested for 30 Minutes

Smoked Mashed Potatoes:
Original Recipe:
dadgotthis.com/chef-mickeys-parmesan-mashed-potato…

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Set the Smoker to 350F (176C).
2. This is a variation of my Chef Mickey's Parm Mashed Potatoes. Follow that recipe.
3. Once the potatoes are ready, and the smoker is up to temp put the potatoes in an oven-safe dish and pop them in the smoker.
4. Check them every 10 minutes because they will brown quickly.
5. Once they start to brown they are done. You can serve them. If you are not ready to serve them you can cover them with foil and leave them in the smoker. Mine took bout 15 minutes to get a nice color on them. If you are doing this with potatoes you cooked ahead of time and they are cold, once the potatoes get the color you want poil cover them and leave them in until they are warmed through, about 30-40 minutes.
6. Sprinkle with additional cheese before serving.

AJUS Recipe:
Ingredients:
2 Cup Beef Broth
Drippings From Prime Rib
1 Tablespoon Wash Your Sister Sauce
1 TSP MSG
2 TBSP of butter
Salt & Pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan over medium heat.
2. Stir and simmer for 10-15 minutes until slightly reduced.
3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    I normally make a Prime Rib for Christmas. In fact, I just ordered mine yesterday, got onto YouTube, and there was your video on my feed. Last year, I did my Prime Rib on my Woodwind Pro, but had to get a Ninja Woodfire Grill XL because I moved to a smaller place. I am so looking forward to trying your recipe! But I will have to try with some of my Camp Chef pellets as that is what I have currently. I’ll report back how mine turned out! I hope I win because I really want to try those pecan pellets. So excited to do the Prime Rib on the Ninja!
  • @raynewste-lx9xg
    Excellent Video. Ordered a 20 pound box just now. Can't wait to try these Pellets.
  • @rscox6215
    I used these pellets before. Bought the 20lb box. I compared them to Lumber Jack Hickory pellets on two separate brisket cook and the Smoking Pecan produced more smoke, a beaufitful smoke ring with more pronounced smoke taste than the Lumber Jack pellets. Cooked on a Zgrill 700. Great pellets.
  • @Loumoli954

  • @MrGavros1995
    Very nice recipe , i enjoyed many of your videos ,especially about the Ninja Woodfire grill.Cant wait for it to reach europe so that i can buy it.Unfortunately cant get it here yet but i have had the Ninja Foodi for almost a year and i have grilled many meats with great success.Excellent video.
  • @raynewste-lx9xg
    I noticed on my XL that their Temperature Probes read 14 degrees below my Thermopen TempSpike. On the flip side, the Ambient temperature inside the Grill is running 20 degrees hotter that what shows on my TempSpike (Ambient running 270 actual when I've set the Smoker for a 250 degree temperature). Perhaps this is why many people are experiencing over-cooked results. Conclusion: don't trust the Ninja settings and temp probe readings - get yourself a ThermoPen or InkBird Wireless Thermometer and adjust settings and times accordingly. Raybo
  • @pinballguru
    You are making me go broke, I am a fan and ordered many things you have suggested. All I need now is the NEW Meater coming out next year.
  • @djpx
    Can you use this same recipe in the ninja oven? What app is that on your phone? And can you do more videos of the ninja oven please !!
  • @needmango
    For some reason I hate the smell of pecan. Does it have a pecan smell or flavor? Or something more indescribable that’s better?
