last night's prime rib - WOWSER!!!

RRP
Posts: 25,898
I've egged several prime ribs over the last 8 years and while they have been OK that's just it..."OK". Soooo I decided to wipe the slate clean and start over last night. I planned to follow the general suggestions by thirdeye but I took a few turns in the road. I found a PR rub recipe in a book that sounded good, but even at that I made modifications to it as well. Using a sharp knife and a 1" wide piece of wood as a guideline I made criss-cross deep cuts through the heavy fat rind so I could work the rub into the crevasses. Then smeared all sides with yellow mustard, and dusted with more of the rub, kosher salt and fresh pepper. The cook was indirect at 250° with plate setter turned up. It took way longer than predicted to get to 125 internal and time was running out so I opened the vents and removed the Daisy. within minutes the dome was 600+ and I let it reverse sear for 10 minutes and the internal temp got to 135 so off it came.
This is not a clear picture so it doesn't do it justice.
Then cut...
This was one mighty fine tasting chuck-o-cow and I'll do this again!

Looks great Ron.Great work

I like the idea of the reverse sear; don't see that mentioned very often.

I like using reverse sear on PR too. Since this one turned out better than the others you have done do you mind posting the rub recipe with your modifications?
-
This was more than enough for my small 3+ pounder and I imagine it would be enough for a 6 pounder yet, maybe the thicker application is what made it tasty.
Prime Rib Rub as modified
1 T ground mustard
1.5 t table salt
0.5 t paprika
0.25 t allspice
0.25 t fresh ground pepper
1 t grandulated onion powder
0.5 t garlic powder
Also like I said I used the smear of mustard for sake of a good bark and hit it well with the remaining rub plus kosher salt and more fresh ground pepper.Re-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
RRP,
Looks good enough to eat. -
Looks like you found you a system!! Thank for posting complete burn instructions so I can replicate. What was wrong with the others b4?
-
Thinking back over the years...
Direct, albeit shielded vs true indirect using the inverted plate setter. Then probably too high of heat by doing the sear at the beginning instead of the end and the choice of rub or lack thereof. Lastly, the lack of a tasty bark! Burnt/crisp meat is not bark - it's burnt/crisp meat! Please try it and let me know your added twists! Right now - 24 hours later - I still have fond memories of this chunk-o-cow!Re-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
Good looking PR, it makes me want to go out and plop down a few greenbacks. Thanks forposting the how-to.
P.S. Did you get the dip recipe? (it got down the page pretty quickly) -
Ohh Yes, You always remember your first good one! :laugh:
-
Yes I did and I thank you. I always try to have some salmon left over to make "my dip" but I'm sure going to try yours next time.Re-gasketing America one yard at a time.

Beauty of a prime rib, RRP. I'd say you've found the way to do PR cooks, no?
