Prime rib is perfect for the holidays

Print More

This is one of the simplest recipes I have ever shared. With the holidays upon us and New Year’s around the corner, this makes a very special meal and it always comes out perfectly!

Ingredients

prime rib, typically 5–7 ribs

salt and pepper

garlic powder

cayenne pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Note: a clean oven works best as this high temp brings out the best in your oven, so to speak!

Rub seasonings into roast. Place rib in roasting pan and roast uncovered for one hour.

After one hour immediately turn the temperature down to 250 degrees and continue to roast uncovered for 1.5–2 hours (for a larger rib).

Use meat thermometer to check for the meat temp of your preference. A good rule of thumb for beef is 115–120 degrees for rare or 125–130 degrees for medium.

Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.
