Largest prime rib size?

Anyone know the largest prime rib size I can put in the XL? Having tons of people over for the holidays, and I'm not sure how large of I can order, and figured someone out there must have gone through this :-)

I just got a prime roast from costco it was 22 lbs
That was one of the largest I have seen

Wow - thanks... that should be plenty. And it fits in the actual egg whole? Or will you have to cut it in 1/2?

i had it cut in two

extra ends for people who like it a little more done

sure you can put in the whole thing, a seven bone.

in reality, you may want to cut it in half at least, to give those who like the ends more, well, more 'ends'.

I put a 6 rib bone-in on a large without any problem, coated in yellow mustard and coarse crushed mixed pepper corns. Beautiful!!!
How many people have you to feed, that should dictate the size of your joint?

I would figure about 8 ounces to 16 ounces per person for sit-down dinner.
I have done a 19 pound in the Large. Mustard and Montreal seasoning. Pulled at 120 degrees and rested for half an hour.
