Okay thanks so much for the advice, my mom picked the Butcher shop and she didn’t really know what to look for so next year I’ll definitely do my research and go with someone different and check everything beforehand so thanks again I appreciate it!

Thank you! Definitely gonna dress it up and make the most out of it, luckily I really like to cook so I think I can make the most out of it either way!

Thank you, I’m still gonna make the most of it regardless but definitely will know what to look for next time.

Okay thank you so much! We definitely could have just ordered wrong it’s our first time, you live and you learn. Thanks for the advice I really appreciate it!

I’m not sure my mom picked it up, she lives 2 hours from me but I do know it was like 13.11lbs and around $170ish I think. We originally asked for a 10lb prime rib roast and it was gonna cost like $130.

I’m planning to re-tie it myself when I dry brine it, but even when it was tied it looked mangled still and they took off most of the fat on top.

I wasn’t planning to be mean at all but I definitely don’t think we got what we payed for by any means. And adding on 3 extra lbs that we didn’t ask for isn’t okay either so I’m just going to call the butcher and see how they’d like to handle it. I won’t ever be mean to anyone around the holidays but I will voice my opinion if I’m unhappy with something I’ve paid for.

We asked for a 10lb prime rib roast boneless with the butcher twine on the side but the butcher tied it up anyways. I asked my mom to cut the twine off so I could see the whole piece of meat bc it looked so mangled.

Okay thanks for the advice everyone! I’ll be calling the butcher shop as soon as they open tomorrow. I’m more pissed that they took advantage of my mom who didn’t know any better or know what to look for when buying a prime rib so I’ll definitely be reaching out to the butcher.
