Prime rib is gooooood!

Baby Back Maniac · 12-06-2018, 03:57 PM

I've been getting requests for cooks on the gas grill since I started. I figure there might be a good percentage of "normal" (ie non-fanatics) looking for information on how to cook holiday meals in the gas grill. Hopefully some of them will find this helpful.

I went to 3 different stores before I finally found one worth buying. I ended up with a 4 pound prime grade boneless rib roast from Sam's that cost about 50 bucks.

I wasn't expected much but it's turned out amazing! You can see why in the first 5 seconds of the video. The marbling was insane.

Prime rib looked great....but honestly I had trouble concentrating with that new LSG in the background.

Yum. Looking forward to your cook

I haven't watched the video, but wanted to comment on the whole "I went to 3 different stores before I finally found one worth buying."

That is how people should shop! Too many folks go to the store and have no idea that they should even be looking at what they are buying. With loins, so many people assume one is like another & just buy what's in the case in front of them. Or the WORST thing...buy whatever is the cheapest! So often I see folks brag about buying a rib loin at $4.99/# or even $3.99/#. That is not the way to shop for beef! You have to use your eyes, and THEN decide whether the price suits you.

That's why I choose to buy CAB in my workplace. Say what you will, and there are plenty of naysayers, but CAB is the most consistent product I have found in my 16 years of restaurant ownership. It costs me, yes. But it is so worth it...in every way.

I had a prime rib sandwich tonight at work. Around a 5oz. slice on buttered & toasted Texas Toast with cheese, lettuce, and tomato. It's a wonder I don't weigh twice as much as I do.

Once again, great video!

Whatever market I'm at I always check out the meat. Even when I don't need anything. If I see a nice piece of meat, whatever it is. It comes home with me. I'm usually digging around, flipping the meat over, inspecting it and most times making a mess of things. Especially when looking at packer briskets.

My wife thinks I'm nuts. Choosing a good piece of meat and knowing what to look for is half of what makes a good meal. It also helps to get to know the butcher.

Another really nice video. I bet when you sliced into that you were smiling from ear to ear. Nothing like hitting a home run. Little jealous of all those grills...

SmoothBoarBBQ · 12-07-2018, 05:01 AM

Great video as always and yeah...that prime rib looked amazing. I've always wanted to give it a go but it's tough to experiment with such an expensive piece of meat. When you smoke it how is the flavor compared to a normal ribeye steak? Is it similar or a totally different flavor / texture?

Your back yard is looking amazing with all of those cookers!

Dmakkk · 12-07-2018, 07:48 AM

Awesome Video... Keep up the good work.

Jason - have been watching a lot of Youtube videos of yours, T-Roy Cooks and Aim'em Claim'em lately. Great work by all three of you! Keep up the great work. All three of you gentlemen provide great instructional and how-to videos.

Prime rib and ribeye have a similar taste & texture...you just miss the char/maillard flavor with PR. Prime rib makes up for that with the super seasoned outside layer.

I'll be honest with you...there really isn't any experimentation with prime rib. If you know how to run your pit, or turn on an oven, then you'll have no problems cooking one. It's as simple as it gets.

My biggest piece of advise is to do as you see in the OP here...choose the right piece of meat. After that...it'll be hard to mess up.
