cross rib roast

[dick621]

A friend gave me a cross rib roast to smoke/cook.    What is the best way to treat this cut?   Thanks

I've seen a couple different pieces of meat called cross rib roast.  Is yours a "chuck" or is it a standing Prime Rib? Bone or boneless?

olds,  i'm not sure which cut it is.  butchers wrap says Rib Roast and cross was written above.  Dont see any bones.  Still frozen tho.  Have it in the fridge to thaw.

Cross rib roast can be boneless. If boneless it is sometimes called an English Cut (or Roll)

Here is a site that gives some cooking tips.

Get online and do a google image search on the name. See if the images that come up look like yours.

Some of the pictures I found that looked similar just called it a boneless cross rib roast.  The ones called chuck cross rib roasts did'nt look as much like it as they did.  How should I handle this in the BS?
