Ingredients
- 1 (3 - 4 bone) bone-in prime rib
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
Instructions
- Salt prime rib from one hour to up to five days prior to cooking and serving your prime rib. Once salted, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until an hour prior to cooking.
- An hour prior to cooking, remove prime rib from refrigerator, unwrap and place, bone side down, on a roasting pan and allow to reach room temperature. If cooking a boneless roast, place onto a roasting rack inside the roasting pan. At this point add pepper or other seasonings, if using.
- Preheat oven to 475º F. Then, roast your prime rib for 15 minutes and reduce to 325º F until your prime rib reaches the desired internal temperature, usually 11 - 12 minutes per pound, about 1 hour and 50 minutes. Using an internal meat thermometer, remove your prime rib from the oven about 2 - 4 degrees less than the desired serving final temperature you desire. The temperature of the prime rib will continue to rise due to carryover cooking. Tent prime rib with foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes.Note: Here are the temperatures you'll allow to reach depending on the doneness desired:115º F - 120º F for rare125º F - 130º F for medium rare135º F - 140º F for medium145º F - 150º F for medium well
- Place on a carving board for slicing and serve.

Notes
- Storage Instructions for Leftover Prime Rib
- If you have any leftover prime rib, you can easily save it for later serving.
- To refrigerate: Wrap well and store in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
- To freeze: Wrap well and store in an airtight freezer container for up to 6 months.
- To reheat: Allow the frozen prime rib to thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Leftover prime rib is delicious cold, but if you desire to reheat it, do so carefully at a low oven temperature of 250 degrees with a bit of broth or au jus in the dish as well to preserve the tenderness.
