Merry Christmas to all;
Finally got of the phone to all the family members and just in time to take
the Prime Rib roast out of the frig to warm up for two hours.
My wife wanted one big enough for our family, so she ordered a 15.10 pound roast.
It will go into the 260* oven at 12 noon until it hits 120*, then rest for 45-60 minutes
then popped into a 450-500* oven for 15-20 minutes.
I might not have room for the roast, looking at the size of the Baked potatoes, that she has wrapped up in foil !!
Happy holiday, to all.

No big Christmas dinner today, so I went up to a local diner in the next town and indulged myself in some eggs benedict.

Tonight was a scrumptious lamb roast, some fancy potatoes, green beans, a Greek salad, and dark brown dinner rolls. Martinelli sparkling cider to wash it all down with.
Gonna' have a small piece of fruitcake and a glass of eggnog a bit later.

The Rib roast we had today was cooked to the recipe of an online You Tube chef. (((Chef Jean Pierre). Exactly the way described and showed. It was the best rib roast I have ever had. Nothing fancy...just great!
It works.
At an elevation of 4,600 feet, my "Old" oven only put out 241*
so I cranked it up to 340 and then dropped it to 270* to make up for tired heating elements.
In four hours the temp probe read 241*.
A hour rest and 20 min. at a 500* sear finished it off to........ "Perfection !!
Note to all;
The roast is still cooking during the rest period.......
but it does need 130* to be RARE and 140* for med rare
for most "Beef" size roast.
After carving, I put my roast back into the hot oven, to get a
little closer to med. rare, for the next day.

Well had all kind of goodies planned, but after the x-mas oyster stew, eggnogg and plus p Irish creme, the gout monster struck. The shrimp and baby lobsters will go in barbara walters face suck machine. Will see how long they can last in freezer till uric acid levels drop.
The oyster stew was worth it.

I smoked a prime rib for Christmas. Pulled it at 130. After it rested, it was 136. Served it with smoked mashed potatoes, roasted Brussels sprouts, steamed persimmon pudding, and homemade wedge salads. Dessert was homemade eggnog crème brûlée. It was a very nice meal.

When I lived in NC the first frost heralded persimmon puddin' season.
Ridiculously good.
