Yeah I want to say mine was labeled at like 18.

Preferred prime rib cooking method? Low and slow with reverse sear or blast the hell out of it followed by dead oven? Last year I gave sous vide a shot and had the same issue with it that I have with all fatty cuts of meat in the bag boil in that the temperature just never gets hot enough to render some of the fat off and out. Couple minutes of a rotated sear just doesn’t cut it.

You have a sous vide device? Perhaps it's your procedure then. Get a cast iron pan scorching hot and sear every side to render that fat down. This is the recipe I have used multiple times, and it is damn near flawless: https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/standing-rib-roast

If you want to give a more traditional approach a try, I have also cooked prime rib using this method: https://www.food.com/recipe/foolproof-s ... een-149395. It really does come out amazingly well, but you need to make sure that you never, ever open the oven before it's time. Ever.

I have an Anova.

Reverse sear is my preferred method for prime rib/ribeye for the exact reason you stated.

Made deer meatloaf with a bourbon glaze for lunch.

Enjoyable day.

Speaking of your deer, how’s your mangled knee?

I did tear my hamstring. So rest and ice.

Appreciate you asking.

This endeavor made me realize that my current kitchen shears are trash, and I need better ones.

I am guilty of using my shears as scissors if I can't find one of the 19 pairs we allegedly have in our home.

Glad to hear that!

That’s what it was. Knees and hamstrings are basically the same thing.

My wife seems to exclusively use my kitchen shears for literally anything else but kitchen shearing, so they’re dull and suck.

Mrs Tif likes to use my shears that are used for cutting raw poultry to open Amazon boxes.

Went to find a small turkey or just turkey breast while shopping... apparently so did everyone else. All that was left was big honkin turkeys and the guy working the meats section trying to explain to 5 or 6 people that everyone and their brothers are looking for small birds or just breasts because of the pandemic.

Got a chicken instead. I'll just debone the whole thing and do a roulade.

You can skip up to 2:30 to see how he cooks it.

The best part of Thanksgiving is the leftovers...

I'd take a big bird with a smile on my face.

This is where I am. We'll find a use for the leftovers, even if it's just my wife and I with 3 small kids.

[blackjack68]

Got a 21 pounder for four of us. Jam that cavity with stuffing add some mashed potatoes, gravy, broccoli and green beans with some biscuits and we are ready to GO!

Yes. Mine is only a 12 pounder, but I doubt my wife and daughter will eat much of it. I’m still making a massive sweet potato casserole that I intend to have with every meal from Thursday through the next 4+ days.

Random aside: I bought a pair of these Japanese scissors from Jetpens, and they're the best scissors I've ever used. They also have a version with a Fluorine coating on the blades that sticky stuff like tape residue won't stick to.

Doing the KFC-style fried turkey thing ChefSteps published several days ago. Got ye bird parts (1 whole leg, 1 boneless breast) in the brine today.

I hate that like 90 percent of their new content requires studio pass.

If yinz are tired of turkey, there are other alternatives.

Hah, this is our situation exactly. About a 14 pounder. My wife is allegedly allergic to turkey although she will try it. Gonna have a lot of leftovers.

I’ve seen this exact plot on one of those murder mystery shows on Lifetime...
