Awesome recipe, I have used this recipe many times on pork roast and standing rib roast. I stumbled on this recipe on another site and modified it a little. Made a paste with the olive oil, salt, pepper, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, minced roasted garlic, then followed the rest of the recipe. I take mine out of the oven at 115 degrees F and let it rest and the temp will rise about ten more degrees for rare. Most of my family prefers rare prime rib. Serve with pineapple salsa.

This is an amazing recipe! Thank you! I’ve never made prime rib before & this recipe was so easy and so full of flavour! Because we are freaks for garlic I added my own tweaks to it and did 3x the garlic. I also toasted my fresh spices & added rosemary to the lot. I just increased all of the spices since I had a 10.5lbs roast. I also drizzled red wine over the roast just before putting in to sear. I added veggies & 2 cups of beef broth after searing. This was just flavourful beyond words; A1 recipe!

You can only imagine my surprise when my husband said “you really screwed up”. He said that was the best prime rib he ever had, now restaurant prime rib will never be good enough and I’ll have to make it from now on. I followed the recipe to the letter and adjusted my cook time to 16 minutes per pound and it turned out beautifully! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!

Something doesn't sound right. at 95 minutes Divided by 10lbs that's only 9.5 minutes a pound? I'm thinking that bad boy prime ribs gotta go at least 150 minutes ? help me please

This is how I cook my prime rib, or any type of beef roast for that matter. However I cook it at 500 degrees for 5 minutes a pound, then turn the oven off the oven until 2 hours elapses from the time you put it in the. oven til serving. This resultss in a perfectly rare -medium rare roast. LOL, as someone said DO NOT OPEN OVEN UNDER THREAT OF DEATH!!
