Mike's Prime Rib Yakamein Soup
AKA: Louisiana Old Sober Soup
[pronounced yak-e-mon]
According to the New Orleans Historical Society, this soup was invented out of pure necessity by the South African and Japanese railroad slaves in the mid 1800's.
This tummy soothing soup is traditionally made with tender, long simmering beef chuck. Tho I typically use my leftover prime rib from my holiday meals. But, If simmered long enough, beef chuck works great as well.
This salty soup, [meant to encourage later water intake to assist with wicked hangovers] always includes sliced boiled eggs. It's also offered with Louisiana Hot Sauce, Worcestershire, Ketchup [?], Soy Sauce and fresh crispy chilled chives as garnishments.
This soup is craved by late night Bourbon Street party goers and is commonly sold from the back of pick up trucks by independent sellers in New Orleans.
It's served in styrofoam cups for both convenience and, the fact that the styrofoam tends to absorb some of the beef fat in this soup. It's traditionally eaten with chopsticks and the piping hot broth is sipped directly from the cup.
Excellent work again you brilliant little 7 year old culinary gangstas!

Mike's EZ Prime Rib Mike's EZ Prime Rib
Plan on purchasing a prime rib that weighs out at 1 pound per guest. That's definitely a generous serving amount of meat! Also, purchase your rib roast 4 to 5 days prior to serving so she can age up a bit.If serving more than a 5 lb roast - double your rub in this easy recipe. Definitely invest in a quality meat thermometer as well.You can easily make your own Au Jus but why create another job for yourself on a crazy busy holiday? McCormick makes a great prefab Au Jus. However, I substitute any water required by them for beef both with sodium.The internal temperature in the deepest, thickest part of your roast should be 115° to 120° for rare, 130° to 135° for medium-rare, and, medium at 145°. -
