How To Cook Prime Rib In Oven
Learn how to cook Prime Rib in the oven with a beautiful browned crust and juicy center. Includes oven temperatures, cooking times and tips for perfect doneness.
Ingredients
- 6 - 7 pounds bone-in rib roast
- 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
- 1 batch Prime Rib Rub
Instructions
- Take the roast out of the refrigerator before cooking. Allow up to 2 hours for this step, but don't leave raw beef at room temperature any longer than that.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Place roast bone side down in a shallow roasting pan, rimmed baking sheet, or shallow baking dish. Pat roast very dry with paper towels. Rub roast on all sides with oil, then rub herb mixture all over each side of the meat.
- Transfer to oven and cook 20 to 30 minutes or until a deep sear develops on outside of meat. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F and continue cooking until center of roast reaches 125 degrees F for medium rare. If you don't have a meat thermometer with an external display, begin checking internal temperature after 60 minutes total.
- After cooking, allow meat to rest for 20 to 30 minutes before carving. You can tent the cooked roast loosely with foil while it rests, to keep it warm for serving if you need to extend the rest time beyond that.
Notes
Serve your prime rib with Horseradish Cream Sauce for a special finishing touch.
