Prime Rib
Ingredient
1 Rib Roast
Montreal Steak Seasoning
Directions
Place the roast in a roasting pan with the fatty side up. Rub the seasoning over the roast.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
Bake the roast for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and continue roasting for an additional 60 to 75 minutes. The internal temperature of the roast should be at 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium rare.
Allow the roast to rest for 10 or 15 minutes before carving so the meat can retain its juices.
Standard Chart:
Rare: remove at 110 degrees F. (final temp about 120)
Medium-Rare: remove at 120 degrees F. (final temp about 130)
Medium: remove at 130 degrees F. (final temp about 140)
Prime rib is our favorite choice for holiday meals, but you don t have to wait all year to cook it. It can be the perfect way to celebrate a graduation, birthday, job promotion, anniversary, or just because it is the weekend. For a roast this size, I use the same technique that I use for every Thanksgiving turkey dry brining.
