Grilling a Prime Rib

[TuckersBarbeque]

We pulled the roast out of the freezer on Thursday night and left it on the counter for 24 hours. Friday night, it was still cold, but not frozen so we put it back in the refrigerator. Saturday morning, I pulled the roast out and left it on the counter until noon where the internal temperature of the roast was 43°.

I could have left the roast out on the counter from Thursday evening to Saturday noon and it would have been fine.

Like Thirdeye said, please evaluate your food safety. Some people, especially anyone with an early auto-immune disease, could get seriously injured.
Try the fridge for a few days, or half a day in an ice water bath. Anything but on the counter!

If you really must have it at room temperature throughout prior to grill, I suggest investing in a Sous Vide kit. It is much safer and controlled.

I'm glad it turned out well.
