Boneless Rib Roast, Roast-Ready

Rib roasts and ribeye steaks are some of the most desirable cuts of the whole animal. They are cut from the rib primal and are known for their rich flavor and soft texture. You can find rib roasts and ribeye steaks in any butcher shop or grocery store. Rib roasts contain a variety of muscles including the longissimus dorsi ("eye" of the ribeye), the complexes, the spinalis dorsi (ribeye "cap"), and the multifidus dorsi, and the longissimus costarum (the "lip" of the ribeye). A boneless rib roast excludes all bones, including ribs, chine, and feather bones. In the example pictured here the fat cap from the plate meat is removed and then tied back on where the feather bones once were. The boneless roast is then either netted or tied with butcher’s string.
