Believe it or not, my son’s favorite meal is prime rib. However, it’s expensive if you order it in a restaurant. Needless to say, it is cheaper to make this delectable savory dish at home. Therefore, I don’t know why so many are afraid to make this dish. If you don’t have a digital meat thermometer get one. Medium rare is my goal. However, his means that the end pieces will be well done or almost well done. In summary, anyone can make this roast.
What Kind Of Prime Rib Roast to Purchase:
First, you will need to choose a bone-in roast or bone-out as the bone will add to the flavor. In conclusion, if you get a bone out roast it might be called a standing rib roast or an eye of rib roast or rib roast. In all honesty, I do think that the roast tastes better with the bone in. I do prefer to get bone as I use the bones to make bone broth after I have cooked my roast. At any rate, if you are not ready to make a bone broth place your bones in a ziplock plastic bag. Then store them in the freezer. Occasionally, butchers will cut off the bones and tie them onto the roast.
Why Buy Bone-In Prime Rib:
The bones insulate the meat creating a more tender and flavorful roast. The bones will leak some of their flavor and marrow into the meat. Not to mention, that in my humble opinion it creates a juicier roast. It also allows for micronutrients to enter the meat. Many believe that the bones are better for the gut.
How to Prep the Roast:
Subsequently, the day before I take the prime rib out of the fridge then I rub pink salt all over the outside of the roast and press it into the roast. I then tightly wrap the roast in plastic wrap and place inside and a container of some sort to spare my fridge from any spillage. Place inside the fridge. Enjoy with Keto Prime Rib Au Jus.
How to Cut the Prime Rib Roast:
Simply cut into slices a no-bone roast. However, if your butcher has tied on the bones simply cut off the string. Lastly, cut into slices. Last but not least, if you have a bone-in roast cut off the bones followed by cutting into slices.
Why Cook At 450 F for 10 Minutes?:
Cooking at 450 F for 10 minutes will create a BBQ-like Bark on the fat. The fat will seep its juices into the meat. The fat will become crunch and crispy creating a wonderful tasty fat. Searing the meat allows the juices to be trapped inside the meat creating better flavor. 
Best Prime Rib Roast Recipe
Ingredients
- 8 lb prime rib no bones
- 2 – 4 tablespoons salt
In any event, the day before, remove the prime rib from the fridge and rub it with salt on all sides. Additionally, lay down two sheets of plastic wrap slightly overlapping as it makes for easier cleanup. Above all, place the roast on the plastic wrap and rub and press the prime rib rub seasoning on the roast on all sides. Next, wrap the prime rib in plastic wrap and place it inside a 2-gallon size plastic bag. At last, place inside a casserole dish (to spare your fridge any blood or mess) and put it back in the fridge.
Spice Rub Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon tarragon
- 4 cup homemade beef broth or store-bought
Roast Notes:
In Summary, remember to allow time for the roast to come to room temperature before cooking. Get all of the seasonings and measure them out in a bowl and stir until well combined. In conclusion, there may or may not be Rub leftover depending on how much you rub on.
In any case, if you bought a bone-in roast make sure the bone side gets rub too. Place your roast in a deep-sided pan like you would use for lasagna. Nevertheless, make sure the pan is bigger than the roast. To Summarize, place the roast fat side up regardless of whether you have a bone in or bone out roast (as the roast cooks the fat will seep down into the meat and make it more flavorful). Using a digital meat thermometer place it into your roast as far as it will go.
Directions:
Begin by preheating the oven to 450* F. Followed by placing the spice-rubbed Roast fat side up inside a deep dish pan with high sides in a preheated oven. Next, pour 4 cups of beef broth in the bottom of a pan to use for later if you want gravy or au jus. Most importantly, roast for 10 minutes at 450* F. After 10 minutes turn down the temperature to 350* F. Lastly, cook at 350* F for the remaining time approximately 1 1/2 hours, or until the digital thermometer reaches 120 – 125 for medium-rare. Once your roast hits your desired temperature remove it from the oven and let sit 15 – 20 minutes. As a result, the roast will continue to go up in temperature as you wait. Do not cover as the crust on the roast will become soggy.
1 serving is 8 oz of cooked meat per adult.
