When one goes to a resturant and orders prime rib, and you get a 3/4" slice that looks like it was cut from a roast what cut of meat are they using?

standing rib roast, sometimes called ribeye or delmonico roastfukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

should also mention because its confused alot that prime is in reference to the better rib sections,not better meat quality. a prime rib can be choice meat which is actually what i like, i dont want all the fat that you would find in a prime cut prime ribfukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

the prime rib.
sorry, couldn't resist.
they are cutting it (or should be) from a rib roast, boneless or bone in.
quality varies. keep in mind that "prime" has NOTHING to do with the grade of meat. a select rib roast may legally be sold as "Prime Rib". prime in this case predates the grading system. people referred to that chunk of moo as a "prime cut of beef" before "prime" was a USDA gradeed egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante -
Here is a visual of what fishlessman mentioned, the standing rib roast is #1 in the Rib section of this chart. Standing rib means bone-in, the roast can be boneless too.Happy Trails~thirdeye~Barbecue is not rocket surgery -
Thanks for all the help. I realize it will vary greatly but what should this cut sell for...$8.00 - $10.00/lb?

it's a roast that can be cut into rib eye steaks.
whatever the steaks sell for in your area, the roast might be a little less per pounded egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante -
They go on sale locally at my favorite market for %5.99 - $6.99 per pound. Canadian Beef, but I don't know the grade. All I know is that I've never cooked a bad one and they are always better than restaurant cooking (thank you, BGE).Large BGE
