A standing rib roast has become the Christmas dinner tradition for our family. It isn’t cheap, but it is the favorite meal of the year. We use Ina Garten’s recipe. It is amazing.

This year we have to do it twice...once in New Mexico for one son, once in Texas a couple of days later to teach it to our daughter-in-law there.
Thanks for sending the recipe! I will check it out.
We are still debating on Christmas Eve dinner, most likely my daughter will make lasagna (from scratch including the noodles) in honor of her dad’s Italian heritage.
We may end up with Chinese food on Christmas Day in honor of my son-in-law’s Jewish heritage - we will have either the rib roast, dry aged steaks or prime rib the day after. Can’t let the season go by without those things.
