Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 pounds Prime rib roast (bone-in)
- 8 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, kosher salt, black pepper, and softened butter to form a thick paste.
Pat the prime rib roast dry with paper towels. Place it on a roasting pan with a rack, fat-side up.
Rub the garlic and herb mixture generously all over the surface of the roast, making sure to coat it evenly.
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, making sure it doesn’t touch the bone.
Place the roast in the preheated oven and cook at 450°F (232°C) for 20 minutes to develop a flavorful crust.
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting until the thermometer registers 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the roast’s size.
Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the roast from the oven and loosely tent it with aluminum foil. Allow it to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
Carve the prime rib into thick slices and serve immediately, pairing it with your favorite sides such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a horseradish cream sauce.
