Prime Rib and Pulled Pork

Prime Rib and Pulled Pork Infrared Cooked
So for Christmas I received a CharBroil Infrared Turkey Fryer.  It uses dry infrared heat to cook.  This weekend I decided to cook a Prime Rib and Pulled Pork.  Wow it was great.

Doctored BBQ Sauce
1/2 bottle Kraft Honey Hickory BBQ Sauce
1/2 small bottle Famous Dave's Rich and Sassy BBQ Sauce
4 oz favorite beer (I used Guinness)
1 tbsp liquid smoke

7 lb prime rib
2 sticks butter
2 tbsp salt
1 tbsp steak seasoning
1 tbsp rosemary
Bring the butter to room temp and mix in seasonings.  Use this rub all over the prime rib.  Let sit for 8+ hours for best results.

2 3 lb pork roasts
For the dry rub I used the rub that my wife bought me from CharBroil.  You can use anything that is low sugar.  I have also used the BBQ rub from McCormicks and it works very well.  Cover the roasts very liberally with the rub.  Let sit for 8+ hours for best results.

When finally ready to cook the meats pull out of fridge 2 hours prior to cooking.  This will allow for more even cooking.

I did another layer of Johnny's Seasoning Salt on the prime to cover the whole thing then put the prime in the main basket of the fryer and the 2 pork roasts on the rack above (the rack is an extra accessory that did not come with the fryer but available from CharBroil).  Put the basket in the fryer and start it up.  

Let cook for approximately 2 and a half hours.  Be sure to periodically check the temp of the prime.  When the prime hit 100 degrees internally I pulled the pork roasts and wrapped in foil with 1/2 my doctored BBQ sauce in each one.  The pork continued to cook for about an hour and the prime was done at about 3 hours (I should have taken it out after about 2 hours 45 minutes for a good medium rare).  Let everything rest for 20 minutes then dig in.
