Cooking a standing rib roast for some bar friends on Saturday. I wanted to go bone in for presentation WOW.
I was able to talk the butcher at Sam's Club into selling me this whole primal cut. They normally only sell after they cut into Tomahawk Steaks. It's Choice Angus so not high end cut of meat but the cut steaks on display looked pretty good. I hope cooking at a lower temp and then searing will give me good results. To eat around 7pm I guess it will need to hit the XL 8-9am?
I have a Shrimp Fest to attend a few miles away from 2-5pm. So this adds to the difficulty. I will hook up the FB 500 so I can track and adjust as needed.

I bought a whole role just like that when Sams first started selling them. Damn good meat but talk about sticker shock when I went to pay.

Dang! That's the size of a small animal.
Didn't you do SV prime rib some time ago? or was that someone else? Mentioning this since you have another event to attend that day, and it may take some pressure off.
Looking forward to the finish.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

With Sous Vide I have liked mostly lean cuts of meat. I really want to get the great crust and caramelization from a traditional roasting method.
I got my weekends mixed up and double booked myself. My bad, I blame it on the bar. If I start to get uneasy, I will Sous Vide and just take to the party and sear in their oven for the finish. But I think I will loose all the great flavor given from the lump and light smoke wood.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
Here's a solid read regarding prime rib cook:http://playingwithfireandsmoke.blogspot.com/1996/03/beef-standing-rib-roast-prime-rib.html There may something of value in there.BTW-great looking primal right thert. Your bar friends will be buying you drinks for a long time. Enjoy the cook and follow-on banquet.

And I actually knew better as soon as I started reading thirdeye's documentation. I remember reading it a couple times years ago.
Thanks for posting it again!
L/D ratio (length and diameter ratio) is very important to remember.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -

Ended up cutting off 1 bone. Was a real tight test fit in the XL. And have the Au Jus going now.
Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -
OH. MY. Waiting for this one.

For rib roasts I prefer choice over prime so wouldn’t give the angus choice vs prime much thought.
This is is getting me stoked for the holidays, think I’ll do a rib roast for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year since we are hosting both.
Excited to see your outcome.. here’s mine from last Christmas.

Money!
I like that the BGE allows you to attend an event whilst $150+ of meat cooks back at home. I usually feel guilty at holiday parties and whatnot where many people create tedious appetizers, chopped fruit or veggies for hours and create some sort of artistic food masterpiece, while I take a hunk of meat out tha fridge and sprinkle some rub on... set it and forget it... and recieve an unbalanced amount of praise/ credit.
