Method

Preparing the Prime Rib

  1. 1

    Season the Roast

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Rub the prime rib roast with olive oil, then season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary, making sure to cover all sides.

  2. 2

    Roast the Meat

    Place the seasoned prime rib in a roasting pan, bone side down. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes to create a crust. After 20 minutes, reduce the temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium rare.

  3. 3

    Rest the Meat

    Remove the prime rib from the oven and tent it with aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Making the Au Jus

  1. 4

    Prepare the Au Jus

    In a saucepan, combine beef broth, red wine, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh thyme. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low and let it cook for 10-15 minutes to meld the flavors.

  2. 5

    Strain the Au Jus

    Strain the au jus through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids and keep it warm until serving.
