The Only Place Guy Fieri Will Go To Buy Prime Rib - Tasting Table
"The quality ingredient in question is, of course, a rib roast. And the best quality rib roast comes from a great butcher who has the skills and fridge capacity to dry age meat. As he begins to prepare the prime rib, Fieri tells watchers, "When it's time to make prime rib, I call out a couple weeks in advance and say, 'Get one going on the dry age for me.'""
"Dry aging does wonders to beef by concentrating the rich umami flavors and tenderizing meat to render the most buttery, melt-in-your-mouth texture. And prime rib is one of the best cuts of beef to dry age for restaurant-worthy steak at home because a rib roast has a high marble fat rate and a nice fat cap that protects the meat below from drying out. Dry aging takes anywhere from one to multiple months,"
"Guy Fieri may be known for sampling other people's food on his wildly popular show "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives," but he's a celebrity chef in his own right. He's certainly got enough know-how to be the creator and host of Food Network's "Tournament of Champions." In a recent Food Network YouTube video, Fieri shared his four favorite recipes, and the very first recipe is prime rib."
Prime rib requires quality ingredients and a good butcher capable of dry-aging a rib roast. Dry aging concentrates umami flavors and tenderizes meat, producing a buttery, melt-in-the-mouth texture. A rib roast is well suited to dry aging because of its high marbling and protective fat cap that prevents drying. Dry aging commonly takes one to multiple months, so arranging dry-aging weeks in advance is recommended. Before applying a spice rub, trim excess fat to allow the rub to adhere. Using a finely grinding spice grinder ensures even distribution. Generously coat every surface of the roast with the spice rub before roasting.
