DH was with me at the butchers when we ordered the Rib. We have a total of six for dinner on Christmas Day, two of whom are children (but very greedy so count as adult portion!). DH said "go large", as he would naturally. So I think we have ordered a 3 bone rib which the butcher estimated will weigh 3.5-4 kgs.....
Now thinking about it, that just sounds crazy large to me. I know we can have left overs but TBH I am not so keen on cold rib of beef, it doesn't seem to last well as a left over. I'd rather order something we are going to eat most of and have something else as our cold cut for later or the next day (usually I just roast a chicken at the same time to have lovely cold chicken for sandwiches).
Am I right in thinking we have ordered too much beef!?
