A delicious and easy Prime rib recipe that is perfect for a holiday get together. Slathered in herbed butter, this rib roast is always a crowd pleaser. INGREDIENTS 5 lb bone in rib roast Β½ cup butter softened 1 tbsp peppercorns roughly chopped 1 tbsp fresh thyme chopped 1 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped 2-3 tbsp course sea salt 2 tbsp minced garlic INSTRUCTIONS 2-4 hours before cooking remove rib roast from fridge to come up to temperature. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. In a small bowl combine softened butter, chopped peppercorns, chopped thyme, chopped rosemary, sea salt, and minced garlic. Mix to combine. Evenly spread butter mixture over top of roast (fatty side up). Place onto a roasting rack and cook in preheated oven for 20 minutes. (If your roast is a different size, multiply the weight of the roast by 5 minutes) This gives a perfect medium rare roast. When the time is up turn off the oven and leave the roast in the oven with the door closed for 2 hours. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR during this time. After 2 hours you should see that the internal temperature is now 130F for a perfect medium rare. However, due to the nature of roasts, the outer edges will be a little more cooked for those in the group that prefer a more medium cooked roast. Remove the roast from the oven, cover with foil, and allow to rest for 30 minutes before slicing.
