thanks guys - I hope to stop by my butcher tonight on the way home from work and take a look at these cuts you've mentioned and see what I'll do - I may get something tonight or just price it out and go back.
I have a feeling standing rib roast may be a bit too much this time, but perhaps there's a sale - pork loin might be the winner.
Czech Pils, Bock, Helles, RIS and IPA all on tap - should be a good day!
