Smoked Whisky Butter
- ½ cup Unsalted Butter

Cooking Tips
Derek emphasizes using a two zone indirect fire method on your smoker or grill, keeping the temperature at a steady 250°F. This ensures that your prime rib gets that delicious smoky flavor while cooking to perfection. Remember, patience is key—let your prime rib smoke for about 25 minutes per pound until it reaches an internal temp of 115°F. And don’t forget, a good resting period of 25 minutes makes all the difference for that juicy, tender bite!
In the last moments of cooking, Derek adds the Smoked Whisky Butter to a cast iron skillet beneath the prime rib, infusing it with all those fantastic flavors. The result? A beautifully seasoned steak ready to be sliced and served, drizzled with that irresistible butter and garnished with fresh chives!
