Prime Rib for Christmas - suggestions?
I bought a prime rib at a local grocery store. It's about 6.5 lb. It has 3 ribs bones, I think.
Going to serve about 12 people. First, I'm hoping it'll be enough. I'm not sure how much waste is in something like this. We are also planning on grilling some large un-cooked shrimp.
Then, I didn't know if it's best to grill it or put it in the smoker. My heatermeter is easily used with either my Weber grill or my homemade smoker.
I've done some reading online. Some people say to not cook it slow. Other websites say it's OK. I've made it once before in an oven and it turned out OK. I thought I'd try it outside this year.
Oh, I live in MN and it's going to be cold. I'm not sure what the Christmas temperature forecast is yet.
The butcher at the grocery store said 350 F for an hour per pound, or internal temp of 130-135F. He said he's never cooked it on a grill.
I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks.
