    Rib Cap - grill flat or roll and tie and BBQ low and slow?

    Have a beautiful rib cap. Wonder if its best to grill it like a steak or roll it, tie it with butcher string and BBQ it? Thoughts?

      Rolling can bring about a potential food safety issue.

        Costco sells them as rolled and tied steaks. They are the best, if I may add.
        Now if you remove it from the primal cut you will have to roll your own to smoke.

        Pairs very well with PBR.

          UGH my costco used to have them all the time and I haven't seen them in month/years (maybe since pre pandemic now that I think of it)

        I've cooked it both ways....its great either way. I find cooking it to mid rare + to medium range is the best so you can get the fat to render a little bit

          I've got a good sized ribeye cap that I removed from a 7 bone prime rib for Christmas, and its sitting in the freezer crying to be cooked. It's about the size of a large flank steak, and I was planning to treat it just like one - basically flat (not rolled), and cook it hot and fast over charcoal to medium rare. Maybe I'll front sear it and then move indirect until the temp is where I want it.
