I don't understand the plane ticket reference. Can you elaborate?
I think he’s suggesting that there’s more to the world than Tahoe and that you should buy a plane ticket to someplace else

Howzabout Teton village for turns and The Gun Barrel steakhouse for some prime rib?
Now it's not within 5 miles, more like 10-12, but it's western Wyoming so nothing is within 5 miles. even the next door neighbors.
Back in 96-97 I worked night housekeeping at the village. We'd get very buzzed and go clean admin., ski school, etc. for about 5 hours.
When finished we'd meet at the office and the cooks from steakride Steve's outfit would unload the extra Primes and Salmon slabs that didn't go out that evening.
What a scene of drunk, stoned skids eating slabs before heading over to the Mangy moose to score or watch some fun band.
Good times.
Ore House prime rib, sells out nightly, pretty good, IMO. Stones throw down the hill from the boat. The issue here is, it's the boat; you have to really want that flat pow. ;)
IDK if they still do it anymore... But the Biltmore casino in Crystal Bay, NV had cheap Prime Rib specials for under $10 for years. Last time i was there in 2015ish it was still like $9.99. It is NOT a nice casino, or a very nice place to stay, but it is cheap and the prime rib was always pretty darn good and at $9.99 pretty ideal for those ballin on a budget.
These 2 definitely qualify for best skiing if you like the gnar but not sure about best prime rib these days but were once upon a time very good restaurants.
Pallisades > Plumpjack
Crested Butte > Wooden Nickel
figured you'd remember
If you have a smoker, smoke a whole prime Rib ( often decent buyvat Costco) covered in butter.
Catch the drippings
The meat is unreal and the butter/beef fat combo can be saved to cook with (amazng), or spread anything.
Have a whole Tupperware bowl in fridge right now
Could likely be used for Sharpie lube in a pinch
Yup...
Last time at the Chart House in Genesee.

Not anymore they don’t seeing as how The Biltmore permanently closed in April…

:cool:
SV and Pio for the win.
For close to Heavenly you have Friday's Station in Harrahs, which should be excellent. Stateline Brewery just on weekends and Holidays, haven't had it. Riva Grill, weekends and holidays. Had a lot of it, can't say it was anything special but it was prime rib with horseradish and I always liked it. These are all within 1.5 miles.
Ciera Chophouse (Bally's) and The Bistro at Edgewood are also very close and will both have the Tomahawk Ribeye and are both excellent (better than Riva or Stateline Brewery). If you're totally set on the Prime Rib I'd go with Friday's Station. If you want the best rendition of the Ribeye cut I'd go with the Wagyu Tomahawk at Ciera (best steakhouse also). If you want Prime Rib and a happening bar then Stateline Brewery or Riva Grille would be your bet.
Agreed. RIP The Butcher Shop
I assume Steak Pit is still at Snowbird? been quite a while since I went downstairs below the tram.
Can't get closer steak & skiing than that!
I used to order Sirloin, so not sure about their prime rib. /flippin prime rib is so hit or miss sometimes anyway> easy to get it to raw, and need to eat it fast unless you like cold meat
Who eats rice with prime rib? That really bugs me for some reason. Is that the new light option for a baked potato?
I am one of those vegan vegetarian fools, so I am all about the juiciest tofu steak nearest the hill…
That said, really surprised nobody has mentioned The Chart House on Kingsbury Grade in SLT, which is spitting distance (less than 3 miles) from the backside (Boulder Lot) of Heavenly.
They have several different sizes of PR:

And The Lone Eagle Grille in Incline Village is just down the slope from Diamond Peak…approximately 2 miles from the base.

Jake’s on the Lake in Tahoe City has PR, but it’s 6.6 miles away from Alpine Meadows…
the Jay Country Store used to do dollar-an-ounce prime rib on Friday and Saturday nights, 12/14/16 oz mongo slabs + potatoes and veggies for under $20. basically a gas station/general store with a little kitchen in back, right down the road from some of the best skiing in the east and down the street from our house. we got to know the chefs over the years and it was the go-to spot; we had a little deal going with them that if we were going to be rolling in with a big crew we'd call them by 8am the day of and they'd hit the local butcher shop to stock up on extra beef for us.
Thanks for the input everyone.
The best Prime Rib dinner I ever had was after a climbing trip to the Moose's Tooth in Alaska at Simon and Seaford's in Anchorage. But, the closets ski area is farther then 5 miles away.
Made it to the Pioneer in Ketchum last weekend for the Ski and Trauma conference. Great bar style Prime Rib and tasty local beer(s) Bad color on the photo. ( bar li[ATTACH=CONFIG]432972

From Simond & Seaford's menu.
Although they don’t have PR they do roast their own beef. Beef & Ski, Conway,NH
Word on the street is that Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe has a $12 prime rib sandwich available at the lodge…
So like I said, I worked for a sister dinner house in the L.A. area back in the day, with the same preparation of prime rib, fresh shredded horseradish included.
To shred the horseradish, you got the big roots, peeled them, and then ran them through the big Hobart to shred them, a quarter sized hotel pan at a time. You had to shred the fuckers in off hours because it was literally like a tear gas cannister going off in the prep kitchen. Wearing a respirator and goggles was recommended.
So after shredding, the horseradish looked just like a hotel pan full of shredded mozzarella. So of course we'd jump in any new cook in the kitchen by asking them to give the pan full of shredded mozzarella the sniff test because we though it smelled funny. FNG would always stick their face in there and take a big sniff and then their face would melt off like that nazi dude in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Hilarity always ensued.
At this point in my life, I'd probably rather do HOPR than literally any steakhouse in the country. It's just so unique and so good at what it does.
Unfortunately I don't think Fillmore Mosely-fest or whatever they called it is ever coming back. Feels out of touch with what SF is these days.
Aspen Elks Lodge, $25, three blocks from the Gondi.

Not the best in town, but not bad and definitely the cheapest.
