Prime Rib?
How big/what size would I need to feed 5?......One website said a 5.57 lb roast is only "2 Bones" and will feed 4........Does that sound accurate?......My local butcher told me I need a 5 inch roast.....

My frank opinion is that if properly cooked the difference between "choice" and "prime" would be undetectable to most folks, except that "prime" will yield more fat when cooked. The grading difference is based on fat marbling- fattest grade is Prime.
Until I read it here, this raging carnivore had never heard the term "5 inch roast". Who buys meat by the inch???? Allow a pound apiece and be happy!
Per the bones:
I serve slabs of roast cut off the bone, leaving a little beef on the rib. Once the roast has been served out, what's left is a nice rack of ribs. Warmed over with a bit of BBQ sauce, a great next-day meal for two!

But..My question is.....Would a 5 INCH roast be enough?......Would a 5 "INCH" roast equal a 5 lb-er?
