PRIME RIB

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 4-bone prime rib, bones and excess fat removed and reserved
4 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 cloves garlic, unpeeled, smashed
4 ounces arugula (optional)
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Liberally season the prime rib with the salt and some pepper and refrigerate overnight.
  • An hour before cooking, remove the roast from the refrigerator to allow it to come to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the reserved ribs in a roasting pan bowed-side up (the ribs will be acting as the roasting rack). Scatter any fat and meat trimmings in the pan around the bones. Roast the bones and trimmings for about 30 minutes, or until the fat starts to render.
  • Remove the pan from the oven, put the rosemary sprigs on top of the bones, then top with the prime rib. Put the smashed garlic in the bottom of the pan with the trimmings. Baste the beef with the fat drippings and return the pan to the oven.
  • Cook for 30 minutes and then baste the roast again.
  • Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the meat is medium rare (an internal temperature of 125 degrees F to 130 degrees F), about 1 hour, 15 minutes, basting the roast every 30 minutes until it is done. Keep in mind that the roast will continue to cook while resting.
  • Remove the roast from the oven and put it on a cutting board to rest, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Slice the prime rib to the desired thickness and garnish with the arugula and olive oil.

CHEF JOHN'S PERFECT PRIME RIB



Chef John's Perfect Prime Rib image

This is a specific formula for achieving a perfectly pink prime rib cooked somewhere a shade under medium rare. To use this method you must have a full-sized, modern oven with a digital temperature setting that indicates when it is preheated. Older ovens with manual controls can vary greatly, and the doors may not have the proper insulation.

Tips:

  • Choose a high-quality prime rib roast. Look for one that is well-marbled and has a good layer of fat on top.
  • Season the roast generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Cook the roast at a low temperature for a long time. This will help to tenderize the meat and prevent it from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the roast is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the roast rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the meat more tender.

Conclusion:

Prime rib is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for special occasions. By following these tips, you can ensure that your prime rib turns out perfect every time.
