Hey there! If you’re looking for a crusted Prime Rib Recipe that will make your taste buds dance, you’ve come to the right place. This recipe is all about juicy, buttery soft, melt-in-your-mouth tender prime rib roast. So, let’s get started!

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: Around 1 1/2 hours (about 15 minutes per pound)

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

• 4-5 lb. rib roast
• Olive oil
• 1 T. dried thyme leaf
• 1 T. onion powder
• 1 T. garlic powder
• 1 T. seasoned salt
• 1 T. black pepper
• 1/4 C. red wine
• 1/4 C. beef broth

What to do:

1. First, preheat your oven to a toasty 450 degrees F.
2. Grab a roasting pan and give it a good coat of cooking spray.
3. Now, place your beef fat side up on a rack in the roasting pan.
4. In a small bowl, mix together the thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This is your flavor boost, so make sure it’s all combined nicely.
5. Now, it’s time to give your roast some love. Drizzle some olive oil generously over the beef. And by generously, we mean lots of oil. Trust us, it’s going to make your roast oh-so-tender. Once you’ve done that, rub the spice mixture all over the beef. Use all of it – you don’t want to miss out on any of that flavor.
6. Pop that baby in the oven and let it roast for 20 minutes at 450 degrees.
7. After that, reduce the heat to 300 degrees and continue cooking for another 1 to 1 1/2 hours. You’ll know it’s done when the meat thermometer registers at 115°-120°F for rare or 125°-130°F for medium rare. Remember, the internal temperature will rise a bit even after you take the roast out, so be sure to take it out 5 degrees before your desired temperature.
8. Once you’ve removed the beef from the oven, let it rest on a cutting board for about 15 minutes. Tented with foil, of course. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the meat even more delicious.
9. And here’s a little bonus tip from Christina: If you prefer your prime rib more well-done, we’ve got you covered. Just whip up a quick augur sauce. On the stove top, over medium heat, add the red wine and beef broth to the pan and whisk until the pan is deglazed. It should take about 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle that flavorful au jus over your prime rib and serve it up immediately.

Enjoy this mouthwatering Prime Rib recipe and let the flavors take you to meat heaven!
