Time for a roast

Is it a good rule of thumb when doing a roast at125F to cook 10 hours for every pound?

Hey @marines91. I would be careful cooking something at that low of a temp for that long. Long cooks (above 4 hours) need to be above 131F for the safest practices. What type of roast are you cooking? If it’s a rib roast (prime rib) I would suggest 10 hours total at 131F. Thickness matters more than total weight when it comes to sous vide. Happy to answer any more questions if you have them.
