Prime Cuts

Cut from the ribs of the cow, prime rib is a roast, not a steak — and it's one of the most popular cuts of beef in America, and it's also one of the most expensive, so "don't have a cow" when you see some of the prices here. Still, every day of the year, restaurants across the country serve prime rib as a special. Here are some of the best prime rib nights across the country.
