A show-stopping centerpiece that’s juicy, flavorful, and perfect for any celebration. This bone-in prime rib roast is seasoned to perfection and cooked for tender, melt-in-your-mouth results. 🍖✨
Ingredients 🛒
1 prime rib roast (bone-in, 3-4 ribs, about 6-8 lbs)
3 tbsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
2 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tbsp kosher salt
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp Dijon mustard
Instructions 🍳
Prepare the Roast:
Season: Pat the roast dry with paper towels. Rub it generously with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, paprika, and mustard. Let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour to absorb the flavors.
Cook:
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Initial Sear: Place the roast in a roasting pan, bone side down. Roast at 450°F for 20 minutes to create a crust.
Slow Cook: Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C) and continue roasting for about 10-12 minutes per pound for medium-rare (internal temp: 130°F).
Rest: Remove the roast from the oven, tent with foil, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes. The juices will redistribute, ensuring perfect tenderness.
Serve 🍽️
Carve between the bones for thick, juicy slices. Pair with creamy horseradish sauce, roasted vegetables, or buttery mashed potatoes. Enjoy the rich, herbaceous flavors of this masterpiece! 🌟
