Beef

Horseradish Cream

Beef Jus

Method

Preparing the Beef

  1. 1

    Season the Roast

    Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Rub the prime rib roast all over with kosher salt and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature for about 1 hour to absorb the flavors.

  2. 2

    Roasting the Beef

    Place the seasoned roast in a roasting pan with the bone side down. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting for about 15-20 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium).

  3. 3

    Resting the Roast

    Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Making the Horseradish Cream

  1. 4

    Mix the Cream

    In a medium bowl, combine the prepared horseradish, sour cream, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Preparing the Beef Jus

  1. 5

    Roasting the Bones

    In a large roasting pan, place the beef bones and roast them in a 400°F (204°C) oven for about 30 minutes, or until browned.

  2. 6

    Simmering the Jus

    Transfer the roasted bones to a large pot. Add the chopped onion, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, bay leaf, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for at least 2 hours. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.

  3. 7

    Straining the Jus

    After simmering, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot. Discard the solids. Simmer the liquid until it reduces to a flavorful beef jus consistency.
