Cut of meat for prime rib??

[ohiominnie]

I'd like to make a prime rib this week, but as always when doing something new, the names for the cuts of meat confuse me!! I was told to get a "bone out rib eye" but for the life of me cannot find anything that matches that name!

Any ideas what else it'd be called?

Ask the butcher in your grocery what it's called in your area. Here, it's pretty easy. It's simply referred to as Prime Rib. I can remember how difficult it was for me to identify meat by different names when I first moved to this area. The butcher in my local grocery was a huge help.

Here it is called a Rib Roast. I usually have to ask the butcher for one and you specify size by # of bones. Usually 2 slices per bone. I always get bone in because it makes a juicier roast and a natural rack for roasting.

YUM!!!!

Can also be referred to as standing rib roast. DELICIOUS!

DH and I make it for New Year's dinner every year. We hate to get out on that night - too many drunk people out driving around. Very easy to make, but I highly suggest a meat probe thermometer. And someone else suggested the rack - Calphalon makes a great one. There is something I get at the Fresh Market called demi glace - a sort of gravy to put in the bottom.

And like they say on all those Foodie type shows - ask a BUTCHER - they have great advice and can tell you all sorts of good tips.

There is a SUPER simple recipe on foodnetwork (Paula Dean) for this that I used for Christmas. You literally mix salt, pepper, and I think a couple other spices together and rub it over the meat. Set it bone side down in the pan and bring oven to temp for a specified period of time - I think it was about 45 mins. Then you turn the oven OFF and leave it closed for about 3 hours, bring it back to temp and you're done! Check the website for specific times & temps but it was PERFECT!

Another tip that my bil got for me from a chef. When you buy your rib roast let it sit for a few days in the refigerator. Not a long time but he said most prime rib you get at your local grocer may say it's aged but a little more aging makes it more tender. Then when time to cook make a dry rub of all your favorite seasonings and apply. I cook the roast at a fairly low temp. but definitely use your meat thermometer. Take it out of the oven before it gets to temp. you desire, and let sit as it will continue to cook. If you are serving people who like different degrees of doneness (we're medium and medium rare folks when it comes to prime rib) sautee individually sliced pieces in au jus (even the mixes are good) until it is done to your liking and serve. It also makes it extra juicy.
