When cooking is done, remove roast and allow it to sit uncovered for 10 minutes

PRIME RIBS: (Bone In)

Season prime rib with garlic, pepper, BBQ rub, and wrap in plastic & let sit for at least 1 hr.
Place drip pan below to catch drippings
Sear the outside for a crust or others prefer to cook at 350° for 3 hours for 8 lb prime rib

TURKEY or WHOLE CHICKEN:

Place Bird vertically (up right) on cone wire rack in a drip pan. You can also lay the bird horizontally
in “U” Meat Rack.
NOTE: Using the optional Smokin’ Stone AKORN accessory is ideal for this method. Simply
remove the cooking grate and place the Smokin’ Stone directly above the re grate. This provides
indirect heat, keeps the meat juicy, and oers more cooking space for large cuts of meat.
Apply commercial dry rub, salt & pepper on entire bird and apply rub under the breast skin at neck
and some inside the cavity.
Fill drip pan with 2 cups chicken broth, wine, water, celery & onion.
Cook approx 12 minutes per lb at 325°F until internal meat temp (in breast) is 160°F.
Use drippings in the Drip Pan to make gravy.
