So, it was a bit on the heavy side of 5 bones. Weighed in at 12lbs before trimming, about 8-9 after trimming, bone removal. I took the words verbatim from this site. The butcher cut the bones off, and re-tied them on. The rib cap was easily removed. I started dry brining it this morning. I mixed up some Cow Crust and I am currently planning on a 5-5 1/2 hour cook. *please, since this is my first Prime Rib on the RecTec, if this is too long, or too short for this (@225F) please let me know* The cut is beautiful with great marbling. I payed a bit much for it, but it is gorgeous. I will try to get photos before, during, and after tomorrow. I am planning on a longer cook because the weather here in Northern Virginia has been really odd, and although I hope not to have to use it, I have a faux cambro at the ready. *crosses fingers*
I wasn't sure what to do with the bones... so, I put some BBBR on them and smoked them for ~5 hours to get them to 203F. First time doing beef ribs too BTW. Let me just say... O M G! They were beautiful. No photos here either because they were gone in a flash. Thank you Meathead and Dr. Blonder (and all you other gurus) for this site, this book, and the sharing of your knowledge.
As a side note, we snacked on left over brisket sandwiches. My wife toasted up some french bread, put some thinly sliced brisket on them, topped with a bit of cheese, and broiled them for about 3 minutes. So tasty!
