Ingredients
Scale
- 1 prime rib roast (about 5-6 pounds)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 cup beef broth
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C).
- In a bowl, mix garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, rosemary, and thyme into a paste.
- Rub the paste all over the prime rib roast.
- Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan and insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then reduce temperature to 325°F (165°C).
- Continue roasting until the thermometer registers your desired doneness (about 1.5-2 hours for medium-rare).
- Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes before carving.
Notes
- For a more flavorful crust, let the roast sit at room temperature for 1 hour before cooking.
- Use the leftover juices in the pan to make a delicious gravy.
