Prime Rib and Delmonico Roast
- Season generously with your favourite dry rub seasoning.
Olive Oil can be used to help the dry rub stick to the meat.
This can be done when you get home.
Once you are done place back in refrigerator if you are not cooking within 2 hours.
It is not necessary to wrap in plastic.
- Remove roast from refrigerator and set on
counter top 2 hours prior to cooking.
- Pre-heat oven to 500 degrees.
- Put roast on roasting rack or directly in
roasting pan with the fat side up.
- Cook at 500 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or
until desired texture on outside has been achieved.
- Remove roast from oven.
- Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue cooking until internal temperature of roast has reached your desired doneness.
(Cooking temperatures)
- Estimated cooking time can be figured by using
10-15 minutes per pound as a guide. (Ovens can vary, so this
should only be used to estimate your cooking time.)
-
The proper way to determine a roast’s doneness is by using a meat thermometer (Ask the butcher if you do not have one of our instant read thermometers). Check the temperature roughly 75% into the cooking time to gauge how far along you are.
-
Once roast is at your desired doneness, remove from oven at let rest 20-25 min before carving.
-
Cut string; remove bones from Prime Rib Roast and slice meat to desired thickness.
- Wagshal’s suggests pouring BBQ sauce over the ribs and roasting for 10 min for a great snack!

Perfect Roast Turkey
- Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
- Remove neck and giblets.
- Wash turkey inside and out with cold water;
drain and dry.
- Season turkey inside cavity with Salt and
Pepper
- Stuff cavity with chopped thyme, onion,
carrots, parsley and celery; Or stuff loosely with your favourite
stuffing.
- Ties legs together with string.
- Tuck wings under the body of the turkey.

- Season with additional salt and pepper and any
other spice you desire.
- Place on elevated rack in roasting pan
approximately 2.5 inches deep.
- Add ½ cup water to pan.
- In the beginning, a tent of aluminum foil may
be placed loosely over the turkey for the first 1 to 1.5 hours,
and then removed for browning.
- After removing aluminum tent – baste with
juices periodically.
- See chart below for approximate cooking time
for your size turkey.
- Use an
instant read thermometer for best results.
Unstuffed Turkey
8-12 pounds………2.75-3 hours
12-14 pounds………3-3.75 hours
14-18 pounds………3.75-4.25 hours
18-20 pounds……….4.25-4.5 hours
20-24 pounds………4.5-5 hours
Stuffed Turkey
8-12 pounds………3-3.5 hours
12-14 pounds………3.5-4 hours
14-18 pounds………4-4.25 hours
18-20 pounds……….4.25-4.75 hours
20-24 pounds………4.75-5.25 hours
Use an instant read thermometer periodically to check the internal temperature during cooking. The temperature must reach a minimum of 180 degrees in the thigh, careful to avoid touching the bone. If turkey is stuffed, stuffing temperature should read 165 degrees.
Use a thermometer to ensure safety and doneness. Reasons for this include:
- Oven may not be calibrated correctly.
- Oven may heat unevenly.
- Rack position may have an effect on even cooking and heat circulation.
