It’s essential to use a meat thermometer, as ovens vary. The prime rib will continue to cook once it’s taken out of the oven and the temperature will continue to rise 5 to 10 degrees, so remove it from the oven 5 to 10 degrees before it reaches your desired temperature.

Instructions

Step 1

Step 2

Remove prime rib from the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking. Season meat on all sides with sea salt, per taste, then cover it loosely with plastic wrap. Allow prime rib to come to room temperature, which will help it to cook better and more evenly

Step 3

Position your oven rack to the center and preheat to 500 degrees F.

Step 4

Mix together salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, garlic and olive oil. Pat the roast with paper towels. Rub seasoning on all sides. Put the prime rib into a roasting pan (bone-side down if using a bone-in roast).

Step 5

Bake at 500 degrees F for 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 325 degrees F. Continue to bake until prime rib reaches your desired doneness.

Step 6

Remove prime rib from the oven and create a tent with foil. Allow meat to rest for 30 minutes before carving. Once meat has rested, pour some of the extra sauce from the pan over the roast. Carve the prime rib in slices and serve with horseradish, if desired.
