Reply #12: Well he can afford to dink around with an expensive cut of meat

[The empressof all]

If you use this recipe you will not be able to make real gravy which is one of the great gifts of a Prime Rib. Emeril makes this stuff up just because there are fools like us who watch him to see what the next outlandish thing he's gonna do to good food.

I am rarely strident and am usually open to trying new things but the thought of playing with such a beautiful hunk of meat just seems so, so wrong. Perhaps it's the cost that keeps my coming back to my tried and true methods. I paid $50.00 for my roast this year and that was on sale! I'd be really pissed at myself if I did something to it and was disappointed.
