PRIME RIB (My Newest Best Ever!)

[Bearcarver]

 
BEAR! You are definitely the PR guy in these parts, Hopefully when my kids move out... me and Mrs. SQWIB can afford red meat again.

Great Job my friend!

Thanks SQWIB !!!

I know what you mean---I only buy this stuff when on sale. I've been paying $4.99 for the last 5 years, until December 2013. Then I paid $6.99---Still not bad, but not $4.99 !!

Bear!!! Happy Wednesday!!!!

I'm just seeing this now, and the color is FANTASTIC!

You know just how to make these and have that fabulous and perfectly soft flesh and wonderful hue and all!

That must have been delicious!!! (All too often people cook these too much, and yours looks perfect)!

Terrific job!

Cheers! - Leah

Thank You Leah!!

Prime Rib is my specialty, and when I can't make my specialty right, it will be time to quit !!

I knew you'd like it !!

what is the grate in the bottom of your pan ?

Good Question!

That wire cooling rack keeps the Prime Rib from laying in it's juices, and it also allows Smoke to get to the bottom side of the PR.

Not supposed to post links on this forum.

Try putting the following in an Internet search box:

There could be cheaper ones---I just grabbed a quick one for you.

I get mine from a little local kitchen supply place in Macungie, PA.

Another question for you John... what made you decide to leave the salt off this one?  Did you find it too salty, or did it effect the moisture of the meat?

That looks perfect!!! 

One quick question....  Is there a reason you buy them with the bone and de-bone it yourself rather than buying a whole rib section already off the bone like you see at Sam's Club, Costco, etc?

Main reason is because that's what they had in the store. If they were selling boneless for a good price, I'd buy that.

If they had them both for the same price, I guess I'd buy the "Bone-in", so I can get some good meaty Beef Ribs.

The one time I bought a total of 70 pounds of Choice Standing Rib. I believe that ended up as 10 steaks, 8 boneless Prime Ribs (5 to 6 pounds each), and 14 pounds of meaty Beef Ribs, all for $350.

I vacuum sealed it all, and it lasted me 2 years.

I never used a lot of salt, but since that emergency open heart operation (19 months ago) I've cut back on salt pretty hard. That 9 hours of surgery caused Congestive Heart failure, CKD, blood pressure 50 points higher on the left side than on the right, Hemibalismus, Numbness in my whole right leg & foot, my left eye only opens half way, and my whole Aorta is Dissected. I had none of these problems before the operation!!!

Since I cut back on salt, I have gotten off the diuretics and the Potassium, and my Kidney numbers have gotten better.

Good for you Bear, way too much salt in just about everything we eat.

This looks so good!!!!!!

I want to try a prime rib but I am scared to experiment with a $50+ piece of meat. Might try it for my Birthday later this summer.

Oh my... wow I'm glad you made it through all that, even though it sounds like you're living with a lot of difficulty now.  I'm sorry to hear that, but glad you're still here!

Thanks Gary!!

Funny thing how once you hardly ever use salt for awhile, you put a tiny bit on something, and it tastes much too salty.

Thank You Josh!!

Yup, it's a PITA----stopped my Chainsaw carving & slowed my smoking. Can't do a lot of the things around the house that I always did.

I think one of the reasons I'm still here is all the prayers for me from this forum.

And I Thank them All !
