Mine either. I don't cook mine at that high of temp but at 250, I've had pretty consistent smokes at 30 - 40 minutes per pound with rib bones.

I roasted my bone-in meat in the oven at 250°F as well and it took approx 3 hours to reach an internal temperature of 121°F. Didn't sear @ 500°F until I arrived at the house and pulled the roast out of the oven when it reached 128.

Kenji over at Serious Eats stresses the cooking time doesn't vary no matter how big your roast is which I find interesting. You can read more about his thinking and observations here:
