Rare Hlitner Posted February 12, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Like any cruise line you can order as many entrees as you please....so if you want more so-called Prime Rib just tell your waiter. The reason I said "so-called" is that there is nothing really "Prime" about the roast beef. It is not like a decent steak house and you will generally get a nice slice of beef (less than an inch thick) with no bone. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 12, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 12, 2011 It really depends which part they cut for you! I've had some that was nice and lean...and others that were all fat (and I cannot put that in my mouth!!!)...if you want more, just order another. I've always thought it had a good taste, tho. If you ever get to Vegas, and want some fantasically, fabulous Prime Rib, go to Lawry's Prime Rib....OMG...so, so good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted February 12, 2011 #4 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I have also found the prime rib to be hit or miss. Some were very good, but others not so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennyAgain Posted February 12, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I know how to cook excellent prime rib and do so at home for holidays and family gatherings. I find most cruise ship rib to be average at best. Yes, you can order more but if you get one good serving, call yourself lucky and quit. It is the nature of mass market cooking that is the rule on the giant cruise ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted February 12, 2011 #6 Share Posted February 12, 2011 We could have some fun with the terminology used by cruise lines (and many restaurants) on their menus. The term "Prime Rib" is supposed to mean a rib roast that is made from beef graded as "Prime." Anyone who has gone to a good steak house and experienced real Prime Rib knows that what is served on RCI (or probably any other mass-market cruise line) is no "Prime Rib." To quote a politician we have met the real "Prime Rib" and the stuff served on RCI is no "Prime Rib." :) Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
