So we are having a few friends over tonight for a dinner party to celebrate my wifes well being {who is vegan} so what better way to cater it than with a 10 pound boneless Prime Restaurant USDA Prime Rib Roast from Lobels. I had it brought in this morning. It was funny to see the guys face after driving 4 hours to deliver it, when he learned that I was going to roll it in Lipton onion sounp mix and cook it in 3 hours, lol... He said "sir this cut should be slow roasted to maintain size and promote texture consistency", I smiled and said "I like the outside crispy"... He looked confused at that point...

I have to say I think I shocked him, he was impressed with my smoker setup, but not happy that I was throwing it in the wall oven, lol.. thats $48.80 a pound I want to eat it tonight not next week, lol...

Anyway wish me luck, I am not hiring a chef I am doing it myself, big gamble, I have cooked them many times this way and they come awesome, I have to say this piece they sent me looks AMAZING from the side view, no large fat track its like a perfect marble...

He also said I had to cook it on a rack since it was bone out, and I told him I do it this way all the time, my wife said he looked like he didn't want to leave the meat with him, but he took is $100 tip and left with a smile anyway..

LOL, yah Its actually hard to mess up, it was $414.00 plus the delivery was $75, plus a $100 tip, so you are right on... If I mess it up I can always drown it in au jus an throw it in sandwich rolls, lol...

More importantly is the drink menu tonight, Powers Johns Lane 12 year whiskey {instead of my normal jameson selection}, some crafty pumpkin ale on tap, and instead of margaritas and martinis we are just doing a mongolian mai tai with Ron Zacaba limited reserve dark rum...

There is also much more food, we are we have a veal marsala, quinoa {not sure how to spell that , it has no meat so not important}, and a few other things, like roasted potatoes and veggies...

We are having around 30 people, a lot of vegans, lol but a few of us our carneviors...


Oh and for desert I made 3 batches of butter pecan ice cream, I butter roasted the 5 cups of pecans myself, it came so soft and creamy, I just took the last batch out of the machine, its gooooooood....

PS we don't always have meats brought in from NY lol, my butcher is closed for pre holiday vacation he takes every year, it was bad timing on my part, otherwise that rib would have only cost me around $150...

Well people starting to arrive so I need to put the laptop away...

Can I come to your Party? Also you should check out charcoal rotisseries. Charcoals sit on the side so the juice doesn't put out the coals. Best roast I've ever had in my life (it was in Germany to boot).

so everything was great it came perfect very little left over there wasn't a ton of meat eaters but enough to eat about 8lbs of the roast.... the ice cream was a smash as always it melts fast due to lack of preservatives but its better than anything commercial sold over the counter...32 people showed up we played music and had a great time, everyone left by 1030 good night, my wife is happy so, so am I..

I may seriously jump on a plane and come visit you.

I licked my computer screen trying to taste that roast but it tasted like dust.

You wouldn't dare licking that screen if you had two teenage boys in the house, thankfully my boys have their own laptops, both of which I wouldn't dare touch with bare hands... lol....

I'll tell you what that prime rib came amazing, I don't go crazy about cooking them, I know some people do 20 hours at 125 degrees, rub fairy dust on them, and take them for long walks in the country before cooking them, I just towel it off, dump a couple packages of lipton onion soup mix on them, roll it around a little to make sure its coated, let it get to room temp {that can take a while sometimes, and on occasion I skip this step, but most of the time its not a big deal because they don't fit in the refer.} Then for cooking I do 30 minutes at 450+degrees, then turn down the temp to 325 for an hour or so depending on weight {figure 12-14 minutes per pound boneless}, I start checking the internal temp around an hour, I take it out as soon as it touches 125 degrees internal, then I sit it on the counter, use a baster to cool the outside with the juices from the bottom of the pan, cover it with tin foil and cover the tin foil with a couple hand towels to keep the heat in but keep the thermometer in it and visible through the towels, uncover and serve it about 15 minutes later when it hits 129-130 degrees...

1 thing I have learned over the years is DO NOT cook it in a pan too large, the juices will not be deep enough to keep the bottom moist, use a pan the roast fits in, and cook it in a pan with some thickness not a sheet metal pan, I use stone wear or ceramic {I havent tried glas but it probably would work too}, place it fat strap up on the pan, dont cover it while it cooks, and don't poke holes in it {just one for the tmeter of course}, and don't baste it while it cooks..

Also some people says the bones add flavor, I cooked 2 one time 1 boneless and 1 bone in, both same size, both cooked to same temps at same temps, ect... They tasted the same, except the boneless is much less work to carve, and you spend less per pound for the meat without bones to toss out.. If you do like the bone, have your butcher separate it before he strings it up, then cook it ontop of the bone, you will have the best of both worlds, I have also done this, but I give the bones to the dogs and I paid for them so why not....

Another note if anyone ever wants a really good cut of meat, Lobels of New York is NO JOKE... lobels.com I think, and they have some of the best meat in the USA, talking stuff the ole natural farmers couldn't dream of, and I am a firm beliver in buying from my local farms, which I normally do... Also they have some of the best sausage I ever tasted, whiskey smoked fennel links from there will change your life!!!! No bread, no ketchup or mustard just grill them and eat them, they smell so good cooking you are most definitely going to burn your mouth not waiting for them to cool before you bite in...

Now you're talkin! Prime rib is my go-to choice on the smoker. Interesting reading your tips. I've never done one in the oven. Always use the smoker. Oak and hickory. No pan. Keep temp ~225-250. Only takes about 3-4 hours for med rare. We like crispys too, so usually move to charcoal grill for a few minutes after the smoker to crisp up the outside.

It's my go-to favorite not only because it's so good, but because it's so easy and doesn't take all day like pork butts or brisket. Easy to time it for a gathering.

My smoker weighs ~1500 lbs. When I had the deck rebuilt a few years ago, had them make it strong enough to support the smoker. For a treat on the last day, I did a prime rib for the workers. Mostly Mexicans. Thought I was doing something really special for them. When I sliced and served it, they were less than enthusiastic. Boss finally told me that Mexicans like their beef well done, and they were put off by the pink roast. Should have done burgers. But for my taste, can't beat a good prime rib! Congrats!

come on by, left off exit 99, first street on right, last house on the left... I think it would be cheaper to buy a piece of meat and cook it up your self... But if you are ever in the area, you are welcome to stop in and see whats for dinner, for sure...

It's not about buying cheaper meat. I still think you are probably 5"3" and a buck-ten and I want to see it. If I can get some awesome food and expensive booze while I am there so be it.....:D

Plus, once we get liquored up, there is a really good chance that I can talk you out of some of your gear.

I wish I was 5'3" 110, but I am only half of that, oh wait are you talking about my whole body?

this is the closest you guys get to a picture of me unless you come up in person, lol.. my accidental reflections from my pics
yes boys and girls {p-dawg}, that is a 23" bicep and 16.5" forearm, don't be scared they don't bite ;) ... There were a couple more reflection pics around here too, but thats all you get... I would feel funny putting pictures of myself on a forum, although one of the sniper forums I am a member of has some older pics {when I was actually in good shape before the 1/2 dozen shoulder surgeries} from a group shoot/cookout we did... That has to be 8 years ago at least!!! And I remember them pics being floated around and people saying "I seen you on the net holding a big gun" blah blah blah, I run a business up here and don't act super professional on this sight with some of our jokes and homosexual/fetish innuendos... I would hate to be sitting at a closing for an $800K piece of property and someone googles me and sees me associated with you guys...:D
also I piss some people off on here, I don't want to be shopping at walmart {lol} and get a shiv in the back when I am not looking... lol...

lol... so here is the closest pic you will{reflection in window}, get book the trip and head up this way, but keep in mind the mustache rides aren't for free...

Smoked prime rib is awesome (just ask Swerd when I made it for him). I used a 7 taet's SEVEN BONE IN Prime rib. I made a paste of oregano, parsley, basil, rosemary garlic, saly and olive oil. I cut along the bone to make a hinge and covered all exposed surfaces and the hinged area with paste, wrapped it all in cheesecloth to keep the paste on. Smoked it with cherry and oak at 300 degrees until 135 degree internal. Perfect medium rare. The dogs each got a bone and there was complete silence from them for two hours except a growl if anyone walked by. I can post a picture tonight.
