Birthday Prime Rib and Poppers

[Cliff Bartlett]

Several weeks ago I picked up two beautiful Standing Rib Roasts that were USDA Choice, on sale for $7.99/Lb. This guy went in the freezer for last nights dinner for my son and grandson's birthday. Did some ABT's earlier in the day to tide us over until the roast was done.

The Apps.











This one weighed 16.3 lbs, five bones.



Made some Weber's Kansas City Rub. Cut the ribs from the roast, leaving a small hinge at the bottom. Seasoned the entire roast with the rub.



Retied and rested for about six hours.



On the 26er, running about 325.



Just about 3 1/2 hours later.

Did some baked potatoes and garlic green beans to side it up.





Let the roast rest, covered, for about 30 minutes.



Sliced.





Plated.



I was really happy with this cook and we all had a great day and enjoyed it. Hope you all are having a great weekend too. Thanks for looking.
