Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Meat: Take the prime rib roast out of the refrigerator about 1-2 hours before cooking to bring it to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. Season the Roast: In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper together to create a flavorful herb paste. Pat the prime rib dry with paper towels and rub the herb paste all over the roast, covering it evenly on all sides.

  3. Roast in the Oven: Place the seasoned prime rib on a rack in a roasting pan, bone-side down. Roast the prime rib at 450°F (230°C) for 15 minutes to sear the outside. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C) and continue to roast for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness (for medium-rare, aim for 135°F/57°C).

  4. Rest and Serve: Once the prime rib reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let the roast rest for at least 20-30 minutes (to allow the juices to redistribute) before carving and serving.

  5. Carve and Enjoy: Slice the prime rib into thick, juicy portions and serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Garnish with extra fresh herbs for a beautiful presentation that complements the rich flavors of the roast.
