For yesterday's Christmas meal I prepared a rib roast (not prime rib mind you, prime grade is just a bit out of our budget and almost impossible to find in these parts). The rib roast for Christmas day is fast becoming a tradition at our house given I've made it at least three years in a row. Right now I just can't recall if I cooked one for our first Christmas here in 2008.
Before cooking the weight was 3 and a half pounds. Next year I'm getting a bigger one as I keep forgetting some fat renders off in the oven. Yet it still yielded sufficient red meat to satisfy all three of us during yesterday's Big Meal. Didn't have as much left over as I would have liked. And then later in the evening Geogal gets hungry and pulls the rib roast meat from the fridge and nuked it together with a dinner roll. I look at her plate and said: "Would be nice if there was just a little left over for me to enjoy."
Her response? "I promise I won't have any tomorrow.......morning."
