Ingredients

• 6 pounds Prime rib roast (bone-in, about 3 ribs)
• 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons Freshly ground black pepper
• 6 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme, finely chopped
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Beef stock or broth

Directions

Step 1

Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 2 hours before cooking.

Step 2

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).

Step 3

Pat the prime rib dry with paper towels. This helps the seasoning adhere and promotes better browning.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil over the entire roast, ensuring it is evenly coated. Then, rub the seasoning mixture all over the prime rib, covering every surface generously.

Step 6

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side, until it develops a golden-brown crust.

Step 7

Place the roast on a rack in a large roasting pan, bone-side down.

Step 8

Smear the softened butter on the surface of the roast to enhance browning and flavor.

Step 9

Roast the prime rib in the oven at 450°F for 15 minutes to create a crust. Then reduce the temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting for approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 120°F (49°C) for rare, 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, or 140°F (60°C) for medium when measured with a meat thermometer.

Step 10

Once cooked to your preferred doneness, remove the roast from the oven, tent it loosely with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 11

While the roast rests, prepare the pan juices. Place the roasting pan over medium heat on the stovetop. Pour in the beef stock and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan to create a rich jus. Simmer for 5-10 minutes and strain if desired.

Step 12

Carve the prime rib into thick slices and serve immediately with the warm jus on the side.
