In the last few weeks since Black Friday, there have been crazy deals on everything from toasters to turkeys. One ad that we saw had Standing Rib Roasts for $4.99 a pound. Not too shabby. So, this year Dana and I thought that we would change things up a bit and cook a Standing Rib Roast for our holiday meal. It was the best decision that we made. It was freaking awesome! Who doesn’t love a huge hunk of meat covered in a fresh herb rub and roasted to perfection!

I love baked sweet potatoes, but they take so long to make. Plus, you have to heat up your oven and thereby heat up your house. Not what you are looking for when it is hot outside. So I started to roast the sweet potatoes in coals of the grill. You need a charcoal grill for this method, but it is worth it. The high heat sears the outside and makes the sweet potatoes come out super sweet and tender in around 45 minutes.
