Prime Rib FAQs

A well-marbled Prime Rib Roast with a good fat cap is the best to buy – and that's what we offer here at Kansas City Steak Company™. The marbling will give the roast its flavor and juiciness, and the fat cap will help to protect the meat from drying out during cooking. USDA Prime Prime Rib Roasts will have the highest degree of marbling as that is the primary criteria for qualifying to be USDA Prime. When selecting a Prime Rib Roast, consider the size of the roast as well as the number of people you will be feeding. A 3½–4 lb. roast serves approximately 6–8 people, whereas a 5½–6 lb. roast serves approximately 10–12 people. Finally, the flavor and rub applied to the roast can also differ but is more based on personal preference.

To serve 10 people with an average serving size of 8 oz per person, you would need to purchase at least a 5 lb Prime Rib Roast. Below are additional servings by roast size. If you have more than 12 guests, you will likely need more than one rib roast.

Prime Rib Roast Servings by Size:

  • Each 3½–4 lb. Roast serves approximately 6-8
  • Each 4½–5 lb. Roast serves approximately 8-10
  • Each 5½–6 lb. Roast serves approximately 10-12
Yes, it is best to allow your Prime Rib Roast to rest for about 15–20 minutes before carving. This allows for the juices to redistribute throughout the roast, resulting in a more flavorful and juicier roast.
