Ingredients
For the Roast
- 1 piece prime rib roast (about 5-7 pounds)
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Garlic powder to taste
- Onion powder to taste
- Herbs (such as rosemary or thyme) to taste
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Season the prime rib generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and herbs.
- Rub olive oil on the roast to help the seasoning stick.
Roasting
- Place the prime rib on a rack in a roasting pan, bone side down.
- Roast for 20 minutes at 450°F to develop a crust.
- Lower the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (medium-rare is about 135°F or 57°C).
Resting and Serving
- Let the prime rib rest for at least 20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve and enjoy with your favorite sides.
Notes
For serving, pair with sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. For added flavor, consider a sauce or gravy. Leftover prime rib can be stored in aluminum foil or an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or frozen for up to 6 months.
