The best restaurant prime rib I've found is from
Skip's Other Place in New Buffalo, Michigan and they do this. The hard part is holding at the right temp. Most home ovens won't go below 170, which will keep cooking the roast. The FEC-100 (or the Cookshack electrics) are perfect for this since they will hold at 140. Skip's, and probably other restaurants, use a
CVap, or Controlled Vapor Technology holding cabinet to hold the meat at a specific temperature. Home cooks don't have that luxury unless they have a lot of money :D
