Maine Maple Glazed Smoked Prime Rib Roast

1Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) using your favorite wood chips for smoking.

2In a bowl, mix together the Maine maple syrup (1 cup), Dijon mustard (¼ cup), minced garlic (4 cloves), Worcestershire sauce (2 tablespoons), smoked paprika (1 tablespoon), black pepper (1 tablespoon), onion powder (1 tablespoon), and garlic powder (1 tablespoon) to create the glaze.

3Rub the prime rib roast (1) with olive oil (1 tablespoon) and season generously with salt and pepper.

4Place the seasoned prime rib roast (1) in the preheated smoker and smoke for about 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.

5During the last hour of smoking, baste the roast with the prepared Maine maple (1 cup) glaze every 20 minutes to create a sticky, flavorful crust.

6Once the roast reaches the desired doneness, remove it from the smoker and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.

7Serve the Maine Maple (1 cup) Glazed Smoked Prime Rib Roast (1) with any remaining glaze on the side for extra flavor.
