Ingredients for Roasted Prime Rib
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Preparing the Prime Rib
Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). In a small bowl, mix together the kosher salt, black pepper, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, and olive oil to create a rub.

Seasoning the Roast
Place the prime rib roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Rub the seasoning mixture all over the roast, ensuring even coverage. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Roasting
Roast the prime rib in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare).

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

Optional Au Poivre Sauce
For the optional beef tenderloin 'Au Poivre', season the tenderloin with cracked black pepper. Sear in a hot skillet with butter until cooked to your liking. Remove from pan and deglaze with brandy, scraping up any browned bits. Add heavy cream and simmer until thickened. Serve alongside the roasted prime rib.
