Here are some great tips for cooking a roast from one of the best poker playing chefs around, Astin!
One For The Elf: “Love Elf asked if I had any tips for prime rib. While I’m far from an expert, here are my tips:
- Make sure the roast is at ROOM TEMPERATURE before cooking it. Take it out an hour before you plan to cook. This is so it cooks evenly. Don’t worry, it’s not chicken, it’ll be fine.
- Get a digital roasting thermometer. The kind where you leave the probe in the meat and the readout attached by a wire and kept outside the oven. They’re accurate, and you won’t have to open the oven at all during the roasting (which is death for a roast). One of the best kitchen gadgets I own.
