For special occasions, it's hard to go wrong with a standing rib roast,
especially if it has been marked down at the grocery.
It's easy to prepare, feeds a crowd, and will please just about anyone who likes
steakhouse quality prime rib.
Smoking the roast takes it to the next level,
adding a crisp bark on the outside and a juicy, savory-sweetness within.
