How to make it

  • Pat the salt mixture on both ends and the fat side of the roast. The salt may not stick that well on the fat side but don't worry unduly
  • Pre-heat oven as high as it will go. Usually 500 degrees F
  • Stick the roast in a Dutch oven preferably on a small rack that will lift it off the oven bottom. Bone side down (fat side up). Get a meat thermometer and stick it in the middle of the roast
  • Cook the roast in the oven for 5-6 minutes per pound
  • Don't take open the oven door for at least 2 Hours (depending of size of roast)
  • After two hours take it out and check the temperature
  • If its 140 degrees it's perfect.
  • If it's cooler, put it back in the oven at 375 degrees until it hits 140 degrees
  • This will yield a Perfect Medium Rare Prime Rib
  • Don't ask how to do medium or well done roast because cooking
  • prime rib beyond medium rare is sin
