I've been given a 1.6Kg Single Rib. But I'm not really sure how to cook it?

Reading this thread it looks like its going on the Weber OTP rather than ProQ, but has anyone got an idea on an approximate cooking time?

If you haven't done so already get a decent meat thermometer, thermapens are on ebay allegedly reconditioned but all those I've seen have been as new or better.
For the last 15 years I've cooked meat, expecially beef to temp rather then time. In lieu of a thermometer use the pad of the hand test (check out youtube it's easier then trying to explain it) basically keep it "squishy" then over blazing hot coals as suggested

Sorry it's not a better description for "squishy" basically touch the little finger of one hand with it's thumb, then poke the pad of your thumb it should be soft and "squishy" then prod the beef when cooking. When the beef feels like the pad it should be rare then follow the advice earlier re searing.

I bought a Thermapen after seeing it here its useful for all sorts of things (Brewing, BBQing, etc)! Wouldn't be without one now.

Timings are just a guide so everything is ready together, its going to be the Meat component of Sunday Dinner

Sorry for late reply, 1st one I cooked on smoker to 160 internal temp and was well done, 2nd one I took Ed's advice from bunch of swines and pulled off the smoker at 124f then transferred to kettle and seared for a couple of mins each side and came out medium ....... Not a fan of very rare meat

You can get good results with either a dedicated smoker or a kettle BBQ and or a combination of both, internal temp, look & feel is the key rather than time... Something I have learned since coming to this forum
