No restaurant can make a Prime Rib like we can, unless they smoke them for a few hours.

I used to say I never met a Prime Rib I didn't like until I had one at a restaurant at Lake Wallenpaupack, in NE PA. It wasn't tough, but it tasted lousy, with a nasty back taste. Then I had another bad one at another restaurant, at the same lake. I told my buddy who owns a restaurant in SE PA about it, and told him they both had the same nasty back taste. He laughed, and said that's because both restaurants got them out of the back of the same truck, and nuked them.

They sucked, but they still weren't tough.

I'm rib eye or rib roast all the way. years ago i worked in southwest Texas. every place i bought a steak, grocery store, meat market, restaurant. they all had no flavor. it got to where every time i came home. (Arkansas) i would bring back a whole rib eye. then eat chicken the rest of the time. then i went to a restaurant. that all the locals said. that is the place. they raise their own beef. so guess what i went. same as the rest. when i was leaving the restaurant on a ranch.  the light bulb lite up.mesquite and cactus. that's all i could see for miles. at home i see grass. you can't feed mesquite and cactus and get good beef.

  that brings me to the next thing. don't mean to step on any body's toes. why is Texas famous for their mesquite BBQ? the answer is. how do you smoke with cactus?

i may be late to the dance. but rib eye for me.

happy smoken.
