Do you like your rib roasts tied with bone off? Or don’t cut bones off and don’t not tied?

  1. Rib roast tieing is unnecessary, we rolled ribs and brisket

    For a cut like this, I don’t really see the point

    I don’t tie a rib roast unless I cut off the bones and tie them back on to the cap side so it stays rare

    Them roasts look perfect. I would definitely love to Eat anyone of them

    Why are we tying whole pieces of meat?

    Sorry, love me a nicely seared ribeye over a rib roast any day. I usually remove the bones to season underneath and then tie the bones back on. That would be a variation of the left pattern where the crosses are over the bones.

    I’ve seen ythe ribs cut way back so garlic, onions, etc can be stuffed between the ribs and roast, then trussed back together. Worked really well.

    That’s a fine looking roast in either case

    I keep the bones on and don’t tie. Just feel like it gives an extra something to it

    The only time I tied those was when the customer requested to have the bones trimmed out then tied back on. Rib roast is a very robust cut and I don’t see why it would need to be tied. But it will still be good tied or not.

    I like searing the fat cap at 500 for 15 minutes, then 225 until internal temp of 120 or so. The only problem with the searing is that it sets off every smoke alarm in the house (my range hood doesn’t vent outside). I have taken to searing it in an oiled cast iron skillet on my propane grill. Seared fat cap, no fire alarms.

    i like mine rolled and tied – separate the bone’s flip them around and tie them back onto the roast

    Leave bones attached. Tying does nothing from what I have seen as long as they are not separated.

    I’ve never tied mine. Mostly because I’ve never gotten the hang of that knot though.

  16. No reason to tie a single piece of meat with no void between the muscles. Prime rib is not something that needs to be tied.

    If you cut the bone off then want to cook it with the bone on, maybe, but then why cut it off?
