Interesting!
Prime looks great! Can't wait to see it!
Along another line, the 5th star is...Wow material!!
Just a quick Wiki on it.

Thanks for that info. Very cool stuff! When he retired you would not believe what we all learned about his military life.
I would say your on the way to a fine dinner. Thank him for me.
Amazing and happy bday to the FIL. Can't really refuse to pretty much anything a 5 star general says anyway. :becky:

is Blowin Smoke!
Salute the gentleman for me please,and thank him for his service.Looks like a feast in the making.
Not to cut too fine a point
But there are no living 5 star Air Force Generals with last being Hap Arnold. Perhaps your fil is a Lt General or even a full General, 4 stars although there haven't been many of them.
Personally, I reached the exalted rank of E 4 in the Navy and shared every minute of it but especially the 13 mos spent in a jungle.
When your soon to be 73 years young 5 star Air Force General, father-in-law asks you to smoke prime rib for his birthday, well, you just do it.

Outstanding, well done sir.
The cook, not the meat :razz:

You are correct. I was corrected at dinner that he was a 4 star, my mistake. Either way the man has earned it for sure. Seriously one of the coolest and most fascinating guys I know. And, don't mess with him!
Started at 225, then bumped to 275 to finish. It took 3.5 hours to get to 120 degrees.
Cost wise? Retail $13.49lb here. Cooking, 12-15 minutes per pound at a cooking temp of 225-250.
