edited November 2015 in Beef
I had a 2 Bone 6 lb prime Rib Roast in the freezer I have been waiting to cook for awhile.  So we invited a few neighbors over for dinner.  They did the sides.  Cooked it indirect at 360 dome and 420 great in my roasting pan for about 2.5 hours.  I thought it was completely thawed, but the internal temp was 32 when I started.  Nice thing is I have leftovers.  Rubbed it with olive oil, John Henry's Mojave Garlic Pepper and Oakridge BBQ Dominator Sweet Rib Rib.  The flavor was awesome.  There center was a little rare, but I still are it, the other two pieces I cut for everyone else was medium rare.  The mashed potatoes were basically a loaded baked potato in pie.  Great stuff.  The veggies were zucchin,i onions and some pork.  I put the ribs back on tell they were 195 and probed easy.  Looking forward to those.

    Its half of a 4 bone I bought after Christmas last year on sale at $5 a pound.  I sealed it up with my Food Saver and was impressed how good it still was.

    @Ladeback69 - Above you said that you cooked indirect at 360. I'm presuming that this is without a final sear. If this is the case, how did you like it compared to ones finished with a sear? I myself can't really tell any difference. Just curious as to your thoughts.

    @SGH, you are correct sir I did not do a reverse sear on it.  The only ones that get to enjoy it is the ones that get the end cuts.  It taste fine to me without a sear.

    @Ladeback69 - I have ran them as high as 325 myself with exceptional results. Now that you have succeeded with 360, I may attempt one at 425-450 just to see.

    Now that is a meal for the books! Looks fantastic.

    rookie question... But what prices per pound do they issuable run (I'm in Florida, and I do understand that meat is regionally priced)

  • SGH. Dry it and you will get a beautiful crust at 250 for a few hours 

    no need for higher temps, and you get a better cross section of rare/midrare

    I have done the low temps with excellent results before. It's my method of choice. Just curious how one cooked at real high temps would turn out and compare to the ones cooked low. You are correct that the cross section is more consistent with the low and slow method vs the high temps. I may cook one at 400 just to see how it compares to the ones I normally cook. Being up in age, I'm defiantly in the low and slow crowd but I do enjoy experimenting from time to time. Here is one we did a while back as a test at 325. Not great looking, but it tasted great all the same. The one I cook for Christmas will be cooked at 225-250 though. The pic clearly illustrates your point about the cross section. The medium high temp of 325 produced an abrupt change from rare to medium rare, and medium rare to well done. This would have certainly been less prevalent if I would have ran 225-250 instead of 325.

    They can cost between $12-$18 per pound I bought this 4 bone for around $7 a pound. Good stuff.
