Using a thermal maven with two thermometers I brought the internal temperature up to 135° on both the thermometers.
This was the most tender rib roast I’ve ever cooked. No need for a knife to cut it: fork tender. That said, about half the crowd I cooked for were not down for eating it without cooking it longer. They tossed the cuts in a frying pan and cooked them more.
But what think ye…would you eat it as is?
When cooking for a crowd, would you cook it a bit longer – a couple degrees higher… or just let naysayers deal with it???
[Edit] I gave it 45 minutes rest time covered with large sheet of aluminum foil – and covered the foil with a towel.

Probably should have let it rest a little longer before slicing
Looks great to me
oh my 🤤
In my expreince (as someone who likes medium-rare) when cooking for a crowd i just default to half of the beef im cooking being medium
I have good news and bad news. First, the good news: that rib roast is perfect. Rosy pink from edge to edge, without even a speck of gray is fantastic cooking.
Bad news: at least half of your friends, family, and/or co-workers are Philistines.
I want a slice! Looks perfect, whoever wanted it cooked more you should have handed them a cooking pan and said, there ya go.
My brother in law makes one every year, and he has a pan on the stove for folks who want it a little more well done
Even if you and several redditors on r/meat agree that it’s done perfectly, it’s also perfectly understandable that someone wants it brought up a little bit.
Don’t let the chive crowd see this unless you want to get roasted like your meat.
Looks perfect!
I love roasts and that looks perfect *chefs kiss!!!

Looks perfect. Only suggestion would be to not waste your time and money on people that won’t appreciate it.
Please send some to…. 📦
Was it dry aged or something like that? The first picture looked a little odd to my inexperienced eyes. Every other picture looked fantastic, especially that money shot. I would’ve loved to try it, don’t think you could have made it any better!
Very Very nice perfectly cooked 👍👍🍻👌
You nailed it from start to finish. Well done. Next time have a pan of Auju hot on the stove and just add slices to that for a minute for those who like if without pink. No need for frying pan.
Damn good work!
