I do all the cooking in my family, and I have always done about 90% of it in the BBQ or flat iron grill that I have outside. I think I am a good BBQ chef, but I got into DO cooking about 2 months ago. I have had great success and fun cooking in them for my family. Well everything except the cast iron skillet seasoning, but that is another thread...
So for tomorrow, we invited 6 friends over for dinner and I am cooking in the Dutch ovens for friends the first time AND I am cooking something I have never done before!
Cooking rice stuffed bell peppers. That's a snap, did it great just last weekend.
Cooking chilli beans. Another slam dunk, it's already made and they turned out awesome, if I do say so myself. I just need to heat it up in the DO.
Of course we will have a green salad.
And... I am cooking a prime rib. I have done those great in the oven, but never in a DO. I am thinking just a simple salt and pepper rub, preheated deep 12-inch DO blazing hot to start, toss the prime rib in, then reduce coals to get about 325 at 15 min per pound. 6 pounds, that's 90 minutes, I realize I am going to have to refresh the coals at about 45 minutes. When done, remove meat and prepare AuJu with the drippings in the DO.
Will that work?
Any hints, secrets, or prime rib recipes you can share with me?
