The Cheaper Beef Cut Alton Brown Likes More Than Prime Rib - Tasting Table
Briefly

"Prime rib is delicious, with its tender, velvety texture, and juicy 'eye'. However, choice rib roast is a great, budget-friendly alternative that remains flavorful."
"I prefer choice rib roast. I think it's meatier," Alton Brown states, highlighting the benefits of choice-grade beef which has slightly less fat yet retains high quality.
"The USDA's grading system ensures the quality of beef by examining flavor, tenderness, and juiciness. Prime has more marbling, but choice cuts are nearly as tender."
"Selecting a good-sized choice rib roast with three to four ribs weighing seven to 10 pounds is key. Curing the meat enhances the cooking process."
