prime rib
Standing rib roast
Prime rib is a cut of beef from the rib section, typically roasted and served as a centerpiece for special meals.
The name refers to the primal rib cut, not necessarily USDA Prime grade, though high-end restaurants often serve both.
It's usually cooked bone-in and sliced thick: I'll have the prime rib, medium rare.
