Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Prime Rib

    Start by preheating your grill or open fire to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating, season the prime rib.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    Rub the bone-in prime rib with olive oil, then generously season all sides with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, ensuring an even coating.

  3. 3

    Roast the Prime Rib

    Place the seasoned prime rib on the grill over indirect heat. Cook for about 15-20 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium-rare. Turn occasionally for even cooking.

  4. 4

    Rest the Meat

    Once cooked, remove the prime rib from the grill and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Allow it to rest for at least 20 minutes to let the juices redistribute.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Serving Plate

    While the meat is resting, prepare a serving platter with a bed of fresh arugula. This will serve as a fresh base for the prime rib.

  6. 6

    Carve and Serve

    After resting, carve the prime rib to your desired thickness and arrange it over the arugula. Serve with horseradish cream and au jus on the side for dipping.
