Perfect Prime Rib

 Perfect Prime Rib


4 lbs prime rib roast

¼ C. unsalted butter, softened

1 Tbsp. freshly ground black pepper

Rosemary, thyme, garlic, to taste (or 1 tsp. Herbes de Provence)

Kosher salt


Place rib roast on a plate and bring to room temperature, about 4 hours.

Preheat oven to 500°.

Combine butter, pepper and herbs in a bowl; mix until well blended.  Spread butter mixture evenly over entire roast.  Season roast with kosher salt.

Roast the 4-pound prime rib (see footnote if using a larger or smaller roast) in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.  

Turn the oven off and leave the roast in the oven with the door closed.  Let the roast sit in the oven for 2 hours.  Remove from oven, slice and serve.


NOTE: Your cooking times will vary depending on the size of your roast.  To calculate your cooking time, multiply the exact weight of the roast by 5.  Round the resulting number to the nearest whole number.  Therib is cooked at 500° for exactly that many minutes.  For example, for a 6 pound roast: 6x5=30, so cooking time is 30 minutes.   Turn the oven off and wait 2 hours before opening the oven door.  Remove the prime rib and slice into the most perfectly medium-rare meat you’ve ever seen.
