Ingredients

FOR THE ROAST

  • 5 pound Ribeye Roast
  • Sea salt
  • Avocado oil

FOR THE RUB

  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1.5 teaspoons mustard seed
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Trim the excess fat off the top of your roast and season generously all over with sea salt.
  • Preheat your smoker to 180°F.
  • While your smoker is coming to temperature, heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once your pan is hot, sear the roast on all sides, until it is caramelized and a nice crust has formed.
  • Let the roast cool and mix up the spice rub.
  • Coat the ribeye roast liberally on all sides with the spice rub.
  • Place the rib roast bone side down on the smoker and cook until internal temperature reaches 140°F (for medium rare).
  • Remove it from the smoker, tent it with foil, and let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing.
