Prime Rib overload

Headed to China tomorrow for work so I decided to make a roast before I left. Worked out well as my oldest won her soccer tournament today so we can celebrate. 

Started with a prime 6 lb or so rib roast. Into the sous vide with rosemary, garlic powder, salt and pepper at 125 for roughly 18 hours. 

Searing on the egg and then a short rest while the better half finishes the sides. 

Wishing everyone a joyful holiday weekend.

    Not a great shot- kids have decided they like steak more than prime rib.

    Had salad, roasted broccoli and loaded cauliflower mashed to complete the meal.

    Congrats on the win.  Money shot looks good, just wondering what your kids don't like about sv PR.  If it's for lack of crust/smoke, hope you don't mind me saying, may I suggest trying to chill it after sv, then smoke at 300-350 to build the 'traditional' bbq bark?

    Might not hurt but they like the fact that all sides of a steak are grilled and seasoned. Probably something to do with less over all flavoring as the edge is the only seasoned side. I could not get them to try the horseradish sauce I made.

    Probably the 3-4 one I have made for them- I have done them only on the egg, oven, sous vide, similar vote from the kids. Wife and I enjoyed it :)

    How do you think SV compares to only doing it on the egg?  I've never tried one SV before,

    I hear you. fwiw I usually do PR low and slow all the way in the egg, get nice crust/bark even without searing.

    250 till IT of your preference, if it's a large piece IT will rise few degrees when resting.

    I do the same. As low as your egg can go until the roast hits finish temp. I like medium rare for prime rib, so I pull at 120-125. I can hold my egg at 185, but 200-225 is fine.
