How
to cook a Prime Rib Roast
Beef
Prime Rib roast is considered
one of the most elegantprime rib cuts of beef traditionally
served during the Christmas holidays and it is preferred
by many hotels and fine restaurants.
The
name Prime Rib means that it comes from the
beef rib section, which contains the most connective tissue,
and the word "prime" is generally the top or
highest grade of meat and contains the most marbling effect,
both of which make it the most juicy and tender meat cuts.
Because
beef rib cuts are more tender, "dry heat"
roasting is preferred. This means you do not cover or
add liquid which is called "moist heat" cooking,
used to tenderize tougher cuts of meat
