Bear they look great,I don't buy big enough PR to bother doing them myself.Have a store in my area has some nice looking ones. Points

Richie
Thanks Richie!!

I always buy Roasts between 5 and 6 pounds---Usually only 2 bones long. That size works perfectly.

And Thanks for the Points.

Those look amazing Bear!  I learned that trick from you, just to buy the prime ribs whole and save the ribs for another smoke.  I'm lucky enough that some of the stores around here that make boneless rib eyes to sell, sell the ribs with a good amount of meat on them for 1.99-2.99 per pound.  POINTS!!
Thank You!!

These are Awesome this meaty!!

I wish I could find some for $1.99-$2.99!!  Doing them this way ends up costing me the same as the Prime Rib itself, because that's how I bought it. (Not that they aren't worth it)

I just hate the ones they sell that they even cut the meat out from between the bones (Little Triangular slivers of meat).

And Thanks For the Points!!!

LOL----Trying to visualize the roasts with little triangular feet.

I think the problem is the price of Hamburger is up so high nowadays, they don't mind taking some of it from a Great cut of Beef.

Leaving the extra meat on is briliant, Bear!

Points for another innovation.

Disco
Thank You Disco!!

Beef Ribs are my Favorite Ribs!!

Oh my word @Bearcarver  those are almost worthy of worship...They look great! I am in a small town (Beaufort, SC), going to have to see if the couple of butchers we have can do this. Not sure if BI-LO, Publix, etc. can do that.

It's tough getting Beef Dinos with meat on them!!

The only way I can get Beef Ribs with meat like this on them is to buy the Prime Ribs, and cut them off myself.

Then I add an extra inch of meat on the bone side of my cut.

I start with about a 6.5 pound Prime Ribs, and end up with a 5 pound Prime Rib & a pair of Rib bones with 1.5 pounds of meat on them.

I usually do this with 5 to 9 Roasts at a time when they're on a Big sale.

Makes me good for at least a year.

Bear
 
Thanks Bear.

I'll have to remember that and get some pointers on how to what to do....

As always you are a wealth knowledge.

Thank you

All I do is take my Fillet knife, and slice it about 1" from the bone in the Prime Rib, all the way through & all the way from one end to the other.

3/4" isn't bad either, but I like a lot of meat on my Rib bones!!

@Bearcarver last Xmas I picked up a bone in choice rib roast at Kroger @ $7.99lb. I cut the bones off (4) as you did. The other day they had the same @ $5.99lb. So I got two more roasts to get more bones to smoke all together. When I got them open to process, the ribs were already cut 2/3rds the way off against the bone with not as much meat on the bones so I could only leave meat on the last 1/3rd, making these look more like big lamb chops. After rereading your original post I found your IT temps at 198*F+ which answered my question. I'm going to try Smokinal's pork rib membrane on smoke tho finished IT of 195*F and was trying to find out Dino Rib IT without overcooking, being from a steak cut that is usually med rare. I prefer not to have FOTB ribs.

Hi Kurt,

On ribs I never go by Temp, because the meat isn't thick enough to get an accurate reading.

I go by Time & Smoker Temp, and I have never had a FOTB rack yet--LOL--Even when I kinda try to get FOTB.

These having a lot of extra meat, I was able to get an accurate reading, which as I noted was just for the heck of it.

I left the membrane on one time, and it deteriorated into small pieces, which were a PITA to find except when you got disgusting pieces of rubbery membrane in your mouth. No Thanks---I remove it before Smoking.

And Yes---I hate when they pre-cut the Rib Bones off like that.

I bought 2 choice bone in rib roasts at $5.99lb. at Kroger. I Got them home and the bones were cut 3/4 the way off and tied back on. I've never bought bone in rib roasts or heard of them that way. I called the manager and said that last November and last December they were intact. This is their way of making it easy for people apparently to remove the bones and that I'll have to order the bones intact at the counter. Well these ribs will look more like lamb chops.
