When it comes to party planning, I love it!
I want my guests to have a great experience and a great meal! For holidays and especially when we want to treat our favorite people - prime rib is always my first choice.
There are a million ways to make Prime Rib, and my favorite is the Scientific Method found here.
TL/dr: 1 pound Bone-In Prime Rib per Person.
That's precooked!
Whole prime rib roasts are 18-24lbs each. Counting from the front to back, ribs number 6-12.
Half prime rib roasts are either 3 or 4 ribs each. Ours range from 8-12lbs each, depending on the animal.
You can guess after cooking and removing the bone (save for broth!) the finished product is less than 1lb per person, but it's still a lot of beef!
If you make our prime rib, tell me how it goes!
XO,
Louisa

4 to 5 RIBS will be good, I think, for six people. PRIME RIBS, let me know the availability before Christmas, thanks
