Ingredients
°1 prime rib roast, 5.75 pounds (2 bones)
°There are no measurements here. Just generous amounts of the following:
°butter at room temperature
°Provence herbs
°Fresh bell pepper
°Kosher salt – generous amount
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (this should be an accurate temperature)
Place the roast beef, rib side down, in the roasting pan
Stir pepper and herbs into butter until well blended.
Spread the butter mixture over the surface of the prime rib. the more the better.
Spread coarse salt over the entire surface of the butter. Be very generous. Use more than you think you should here. Most of the salt will run off, leaving very little on the meat. I cannot stress your “generosity” enough.
Place the roast in the oven at 500° for 30 minutes as shown in Step 1. The time will depend on the size of the roast. After 30 minutes, simply turn off the oven and walk for 2 hours. Yes, go away. Do not open or manipulate the door or anything else. Imagine that barbecue does not exist.
After 2 hours, remove the roast, cut it up and serve. You can remove the ribs for easier slicing, and it’s even easier to get 4 generous servings out of the roast. Save the bones! Serve with horseradish juice or sauce etc. anything you want. You will definitely love this method. You’ll get a tender, succulent roast between rare and rare. excellent!
Enjoy !
