Instructions:
1. Prepare the Roast:
– Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator 2-3 hours before cooking to bring it to room temperature. This ensures even cooking.
– Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
2. Make the Herb Butter:
– In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Season the Roast:
– Pat the prime rib dry with paper towels. Rub the entire roast with olive oil, then generously coat it with the herb butter mixture, pressing it into the meat.
4. Roast the Prime Rib:
– Place the roast bone-side down in a roasting pan. Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, avoiding the bone.
– Roast at 450°F (230°C) for 15 minutes to sear the outside and lock in the juices.
– Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches:
– 120°F (49°C) for rare
– 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare
– 140°F (60°C) for medium
– This will take about 15-20 minutes per pound.
5. Rest the Meat:
– Once the roast reaches your desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes. The internal temperature will rise another 5-10°F during this time.
6. Carve and Serve:
– Slice the prime rib against the grain into thick, juicy pieces. Serve with au jus, horseradish sauce, or your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or Yorkshire pudding.
Tips for Success:
– Choose the Right Cut: Look for a well-marbled prime rib with a good fat cap for maximum flavor.
– Use a Meat Thermometer: This is the best way to ensure perfect doneness.
– Let It Rest: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and tender roast.
