Went to the butchers today .......

[Jimbeam3678]

and came out with this

Any suggestions on ideal roasting times and best prep of it ?

Its a 4.5 Kg Fore Rib joint

Holy mother! How much did that set you back?

 

[Kimi]

Holy cow.

Literally

 

[topgun06]

Woa! That is a monster!

Eat it raw. Like a man!

 

[anathi]

2 minutes either side should do it

If cooked slowly, you will get a lovely tender roasting joint.

Thats the recipe I was looking at. Should take around 3 hours.

Cost us £40, just got back from holiday and was fed up with eating poor dishes. House account was up due to us been away for a week so thought i'd treat us to a fore rib.

I'll post some picture when its cooked. Any other ideas on how best to prep/cook it would be appreciated

That does look amazing! Nom nom!

 

[cainer]

nice! is it on the bone?? looks like its at least part-boned

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Just the top parts of the Rib otherwise it wouldn't fit in the oven! Bone still in the joint so all the goodness is still there

Lovely with 'Honey Roasted' parsnips with it.

So annoying when it's been boned.

£40!!!

 

[Nightglow]

£40!!!

It is 10lb of beef.

Not that expensive, would have expected to pay around £50 - £60 for that joint.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

£40!!!

Spent that on 4 pints in Paris this week

Regardless in she goes

Its a local butcher who is pretty well known in York for his decent beef cuts

I do prefer it with the full bone on , but it simply wouldn't of fitted it the oven. Still the ribs etc left on.

Honey roasted carrots are been prepped as I type

 

[Nightglow]

Never tried Honey roasted carrots.

Last rib joint I bought was too big for the oven, ended up cutting the bones off with my Bosch reciprocating saw.

Holy Jebus!!

 

[Andr3w]

soooo hungry now

 

[Darbo]

I concur, very hungry after seeing this.

You might consider wrapping it in foil, always works for me, would be shame to not get best of of such a bit piece of meat.

How can a pint cost a tenner?
