I don't know about you, but I'm a huge fan of prime rib; and we have some of the best places right here in New Jersey to get it. Many people, when they go to a steakhouse, will get the rib eye or the t-bone; but to me, there's nothing like a slow-roasted, thick, juicy piece of prime rib.

Personally, I'd rather have prime rib than turkey on Thanksgiving, au jus with a baked potato, asparagus, mushrooms and onions, and of course macaroni on the table. Now that's a meal with giving thanks for!

So where do we get the best prime rib in New Jersey? I was lucky enough to find the Hightstown Diner, which not only makes it great but inexpensive as well. In fact their prime rib is so good that they put it on special both Tuesdays and Thursdays.

In Pennsauken, there's The Pub which I was able to visit. There are so many others in between like these from my social media foodie following.
