It is fairly rare that I come across something I feel I should have known about (food wise) and yet have never tried…
Recently I was gifted a nice rack of Prime Rib of Pork.
While I have enjoyed and roasted many Prime Ribs in my day, Prime Rib of Pork was something I had never heard of, much less worked with it.
So when I saw a giveaway over on one of my favorite non-gluten free bloggers, Dixie Chik Cooks, I thought I would give it a shot.
Surprisingly, I won and was blessed to sample these lovely ribs from Snake River Farms.
I was pleasantly surprised at how simple Prime Rib of Pork was to prepare, and ecstatic with how tender and flavorful this dish turned out.
Served with my Pan Roasted Peaches and sauteed green beans, this made for a gourmet meal fit for any holiday or special occasion you please!

- Cut between the ribs, transfer to plates and serve.
- Serve with pan roasted peaches and sauteed green beans.
