Last night we had a combined family dinner in Frisco at Wade & Michelle’s with the Lubbock family. Michelle’s folks and sister and her family all came in for a post Christmas get-together. We don’t see them as often as we’d like so it was a great opportunity to catch up. Donna and I had an eight pound boneless prime rib, so we took that up there and put it in the oven with a steak seasoning & minced garlic rub and in a rock salt crust. Donna also made her green chili pepper rice dish and we bought a mixed vegetable side & cheese bread at the Allen Market Street. Family friend Shawn McDonnell came late when he got off work! We researched several web sites for a rock salt crust, as we haven’t done one that way for about 10 years. The time was off some, but the roast turned out damn good according to Wade’s brother-in-law Matt, who ate 2nds, and I think wanted thirds!
