How To Shop For Prime Rib At The Supermarket

There's some serious commitment involved in picking out prime rib at the grocery store, so you'll want to get your details straight before heading out to shop.
First, consider whether you want boneless or bone-in. Although the bone requires some extra carving work, it does lead to a more succulent interior.
In addition, keeping ribs intact makes portioning easier: A single bone per every two people is a reasonable ratio. In terms of weight, estimate about a pound per person.
As with steaks, prime rib is also delineated by the top beef grades: prime, choice, and select. For the most flavorful roast, track down a prime-graded prime rib.
