Attempting my first 6.5 lb prime rib tomorrow. I’m cooking at 225° and trusting internal temperature, but I keep reading 15 minutes per pound. That would mean it’s finished in roughly 1.5 hours, which feels wildly optimistic 😂 How long would you guys budget for this cook? 🥩🔥
Update: It ended up taking 4 hours and 45 minutes, so my instincts were right 😂 Thanks for all the advice. Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎅🎄
