Herb‑Roasted Prime Rib
A spectacular, juicy roast crowned with aromatic garlic and herbal crust—ideal for special celebrations or indulgent self-care dinners.
Ingredients: (Serves 8)
5 lb bone-in prime rib roast (about 3–4 ribs)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions:
Bring roast to room temp
Remove the roast from the fridge at least 2 hours before cooking to take off the chill—this helps it cook evenly and stay juicy.Prep the herb rub
In a small bowl, combine garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and olive oil into a fragrant paste.Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 450°F (230°C) to create a searing crust at the start.Season the roast
Pat the roast dry. Massage the herb paste all over the meat, ensuring even coverage, including ends and bones.Roast to perfection
Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan, bone-side down. Roast for 15 minutes to seal. Then lower heat to 325°F and cook for about 1 hour 45 minutes (roughly 20 mins/lb) for medium-rare (ideal internal temp ~125°F).Rest before slicing
Remove roast, tent with foil, and rest for 20–30 minutes—this allows juices to redistribute and ensures tender slices.Carve and enjoy
Slice between the bones or along the rib bones into ½-inch pieces. Serve warm on a platter.
