🥄 Ingredients

For the Prime Rib:

1 (5–6 pound) prime rib roast (bone-in or boneless)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, finely chopped

For the Au Jus (Dripping Sauce):

1 cup beef broth
½ cup red wine (optional, but highly recommended)
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

🕰️ A Little History

The prime rib roast, often called the “king of beef,” has been celebrated for centuries as the centerpiece of grand feasts. In 19th-century England, it was known as the Standing Rib Roast — cooked upright on the rib bones to let the juices flow and self-baste the meat.

When it made its way to America, it became the star of Sunday roasts, Christmas dinners, and steakhouse menus. Its rich marbling and tender texture turned it into a symbol of generosity, comfort, and celebration.

To this day, a perfectly cooked prime rib means one thing: love served in luxury. ❤️

🔥 Formation (How It Comes Together)

The beauty of prime rib is its simplicity — salt, pepper, herbs, and patience.
It begins with a slow roast, letting the fat melt and baste the meat from within. Then, a final blast of high heat crisps the crust to golden perfection.
It’s a balance between tenderness and texture — a masterpiece of contrast.

🍳 Method & Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Roast

Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator at least 2 hours before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
Pat it dry with paper towels — moisture prevents good browning.
Rub olive oil all over the roast.
Mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, and thyme in a small bowl.
Massage this seasoning blend all over the roast, pressing it into the meat.

Step 2: Roast Low and Slow

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Place the roast, fat side up, on a roasting rack in a large pan.
Roast at 450°F for 20 minutes to develop a crust.
Lower the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue roasting:
- For medium-rare: about 15 minutes per pound, or until internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C).
- For medium: about 16–17 minutes per pound, or until 135–140°F (57–60°C).

(Use a meat thermometer for accuracy — it’s your best friend here!)

Step 3: Rest

Remove the roast from the oven, tent it loosely with foil, and let it rest for 20–30 minutes before slicing.
This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping every bite tender and juicy.

Step 4: Make the Au Jus

Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium heat.
Add red wine and beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
Stir in butter and Worcestershire sauce; simmer until slightly reduced.
Strain and serve alongside your prime rib.

Step 5: Slice and Serve

Carve the roast into thick, glorious slices. Serve with au jus, horseradish cream, or mashed potatoes. Watch the smiles spread.

💕 For the Lovers

Prime rib is a love language all its own. It’s the dish you make when words aren’t enough — when you want to say “you mean everything to me.”

It’s a slow, patient kind of love — seasoned, nurtured, and shared. The aroma fills the home like affection, the carving feels ceremonial, and every juicy slice carries the warmth of care.

So make it for the people who matter most — the ones who make your table feel like home. ❤️

🌟 Conclusion

It connects us to tradition, family, and celebration. It reminds us that the best meals are not rushed — they’re crafted with intention and love.
