Look what I have to work with...

Man-look at the marbling in that meat!!! Like Pops, I remember my Dad ordering extra front quarters just so we could have a supply of standing rib roasts for those customers that were in the "know".  A lot of our standing rib roast orders came from the local grocery store.  Seams that they could keep up with their orders so they would send some customers our way.

A store near me has Angus choice whole boneless ribeyes for $4.99; they average about 15#.  They also have the same with the bone in, also for $4.99; they average about 20#.  I emptied my wallet but filled my freezer - seems like a fair trade to me.

Yup, that's exactly what we have ordered for Christmas dinner, here's a pic or two of past ones:

Are ya hungry yet?

Mark could ya bring that 7 bone one over to my house for me. I'll pay for the roast but not the delivery charges except with beer and food

  I ended up with a 13 lb'er for Christmas day and a couple others for the freezer and they looked good but not that good
