It's not prime rib unless it's graded USDA Prime, otherwise it's just sparkling beef

I hate that this misinformation continues to be spread.

It's called "prime rib roast" because it's the rib primal being roasted. Grade has nothing to do with it.

It's referring to the cut, not the grade. Primal or sub-primal.

And if you have Giant Foods, it's $4.77/lb, last week and this week... $4.99 at Safeway in the mid Atlantic. Like Kroger and ShopRite and a few others, this is USDA Choice rib roast, not what is properly considered prime rib, but much better than the "prime rib" at a cheap buffet... Basically, cut between the ribs for bone in ribeye steaks, score between the ribs and roll a full size against the curve for a crown roast.

In my experience, while the fat distribution in a prime or select roast is going to make it easier to get that perfect texture, with a bit of technique and practice, a choice roast can be almost indistinguishable. Salt cure, wipe down, inject a little bit of brine and seasoning, depending on what you want, and sous vide rare for ten hours before seasoning the exterior and roasting, and the fat will be perfectly rendered all through, and still crisp on the crust.

These are $7.99 at Aldi and $12.99 at Costco. Where is the love for those without a RiteAid/Safeway/Kroger?

If you have an eye for beef and marbling you can pretty easily pick a nicer choice or ungraded roast and still get good flavor. We grabbed one from Publix that looked as good as most prime graded ones.

I just moved to Charlotte area and we went to Publix (6.99lb), butcher was nice enough to let me pick my piece and cut it down to the size I needed. I am doing it in the Sous Vide (133f for 18 hours) then finish on the smoker or in the oven depending on the weather. The Sous Vide really makes it foolproof to get that fat rendered properly, even with a lesser cut of beef.

Ooh! I'm sticking with my two hours at 127°F, one hour at 131°F routine, that's worked wonderfully for me so far, but I'm willing to try upping the bath time from ten hours to sixteen or more.

Depending on the thickness of your meat and if you're going from frozen or not, you have little leeway here. Food safety is paramount with sous vide. A quick cook of 2-3 hrs at 129 on this large of a cut puts you at a high risk for contamination, the inside of large cut won't reach temp in time. Too many potential hours in the danger zone with large cuts at lower temps. Also, you really don't render the fat properly on these cuts at only 2-3 hours. Definitely try a longer cook it will change your thinking. Some of the best beef I've done is whole briskets for 48-72 hours. Rib roast doesn't need nearly that time, however you aren't really rendering the fat until the 6-12 hour mark.

For steaks I do 2 hours at 131,but for large cuts like this and picanha I do 12-18 hours, followed by an ice bath. The meat is still medium rare, and is safe in the fridge for about 6 weeks after it's been properly chilled.
