Title: Me, too! Me, too!
Post by: Ka Honu on December 29, 2011, 01:31:25 AM
Y'all made me hungry for prime rib so I took a 4½-pounder out of the freezer, thawed it, trimmed it, cut off the ribs, and rubbed it down with my mélange du jour (garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, & olive oil). Then tied it back together and refrigerated overnight.

Took it out today and brought it to room temp before putting it in a 175o oven.  Took it out at 140o (in deference to SWMBO's preferences) and, after a 35-minute rest (wrapped in foil), removed the string and carved.

We were pleased.  Thanks for the inspiration.

Of all the prime ribs we have posted lately(including mine) that is one of the best looking!! Heck, it even looked good with just the rub on it! Usually when I do mine to 140 internal I loose all the pink in the center but the turtles looks great.

Sorry, tee.  Too late.  Maybe next time (or, more likely, not).

How long did it take at 175°?

Looks perfect for me, my wife wouldn't eat it though. When we cook a prime rib here to rare  inside to mid rare on the outer edges I cut off the end piece and place it in a pan of warm Aus Jus for a minute or so and it loses the pink and looks medium well without being really over cooked. She will eat that.

Not quite sure but I think about 5 hours give or take.  By the time it came out of the oven I'd spent half the afternoon at my neighborhood tavern so I couldn't remember what time it went in.  Thank you Maverick!

No.  I was hungry and "tavernated" (see above).  Also decided against it because I'd taken it to a higher IT than usual.

Looks great KH!

 We had to cook two prime ribs for Christmas dinner.  One that was cooked so that it was edible and be that was cooked for those who liked it well done.  We rightly cooked one was in a 200o oven for about 4 hours.  The other one I had to take it to about 150o.  Both served with au jus.
