There are a bunch of great threads and photos of prime rib on this forum, but I'm so excited about the DEAL I got, that I just had to share!
The 6.71 lb. roast I bought at my local market is normally $9.99/lb. or $67.03.
They marked it down to $7.88/lb, or $52.87.
But they had a coupon if you bought $125 worth of groceries (which I had planned to anyway, since my father is here for the week), the roast would be $5.88/lb or $39.40!
AND I had a gift card for $25, which I applied, so my $67 roast ended up costing me $14.40!!!
There will be 3 of us for dinner, and we each love bones, so I got a roast with 3 bones.
SilverSage, an occasional poster here and a terrific cook, posted a thread about prime rib where you roast the meat for awhile, then turn off the oven and don't open it for two hours.
I just wrote to her, asking if she still uses that method. She answered that she gave it up, since results were inconsistent. She said she now uses this low and slow method, with the reverse sear.
I think I'll try this. http://www.seriouseats.com/2014/12/food-lab-guide-to-prime-rib.html
Will post results.
