I've never cooked a prime rib but I've watched both these videos and was impressed with each of them.
Alton Brown and
Chef Billy Parisi
My wife told me she thinks I ought to smoke something but she also wanted ham. When I told her to go get the ham she gave me puppy dog eyes and said she didn't want to spend all her money on a honey baked ham. lol. I knew/know thats what she wants but for the cash I know I can do way better on beef. Last year she told her dad to get one and he bought something that tasted like shoe leather.
Looks like my list for Saturday is my parents, my brother and his wife and 2 little kids, my family , and a couple sister missionaries. Not too bad. I fed three Elders last year and they put some food away...
