So I got a craving for some red meat and did a little research on the interent. Got up Saturday and went down to the butcher shop and picked out an 8 pound prime cut prime rib. Now, you'll pay a price for the prime cuts but as it turns out you'll notice a considerable difference in the end product.
Here is the prime rib, coated with a liberal amount of kosher salt, and a bit of pepper. Some like to add other things such as garlic but for the price you pay I really like the taste of the meat and not much else. I'll save the herbs and spices for the lesser cuts of meat I eat.
Next thing I discovered was that a digital thermometer is worth its weight in gold when cooking a prime rib. I got this thermometer that has a remote pager you can set down on the table next to you. It allows you to leave the kitchen, watch tv, and still see whats going on in the oven.
And a little bit of time and research paid off. Now I'm no culinary expert, but for once I made something that was every bit as good as you can get in the steakhouse.
