How To Prepare Perfect Prime Rib Roast:

Ingredients

• 1 bone-in prime rib roast (about 5–6 lbs)

• 1 tbsp kosher salt
• 1 tbsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp thyme, finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions:

1. Prep the Roast:
   Take the prime rib out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 1–2 hours before cooking.
2. Season Generously:
   In a small bowl, mix olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, and minced garlic. Rub this mixture all over the roast.
3. Roast:
   Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C).
   Place the roast fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan.
   Roast for 15 minutes at high heat to sear the exterior, then reduce temperature to 325°F (160°C) and cook for about 1½–2 hours or until internal temperature reaches:

• 120°F (49°C) for rare
• 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare
• 140°F (60°C) for medium

1. Rest:
   Remove from oven, tent loosely with foil, and let it rest for 20–30 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute.
