PRIME RIB COSTS
Let’s get down to numbers. Prime rib can be expensive, depending on how you look at it. It has a high price tag, but it’s a huge hunk of beef, waiting to be carved up and shared. Or not. This year, with the paired down gatherings, you may get to keep the good grub to yourself. Prime rib makes for excellent leftovers. We used the leftover bones to make Instant Pot Bone Broth. This paired down holiday thing is suddenly looking better and better.
The 4-bone USDA Prime Rib weights between 8-10 lbs, and feeds 8-10 people. (*Note- the site says 8 people, however you can easily get 10 servings from it). That calculates to around $23 per hearty slice. These days choice ribeyes are closing in on $20. For a few extra dollars we’d rather enjoy prime rib.
Have a larger family? The 7-bone USDA Prime Rib weights between 15-17 lbs and feeds between 15 and 17 people. Again- the website says 15 people, however you can easily get 17 servings from it. That also calculates to $23 per hearty slice.
