Perfect Prime Rib

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Ribs

I can't remember who sent this recipe, but it WORKS!

"I was nervous mainly because it was my first time making prime rib. Complete and total success. It was very easy. All I did was season it, roast it at 550 and turn the oven off. Prep time is nothing. Yeshouse was a little smokey, but well worth it. Very tender, juicy and tasty.
Thank you for the recipe!!

    I was skeptical at first, but this turned out amazingly delicious. I cooked it rare then grilled it for anyone who wanted it done more. Also I will slice up leftovers for French Dips.

    love this recipe, the name says it all!!
    I did have the windows open and all the fans running, but that didn't stop the hard wired smoke detector from doing it's job! This is a noisy recipe in my house, but will be using it over and over!!

    I was amazed at how good this turned out. Next time I will marinate the roast before cooking it this way.

    My oven went to 525 so I cooked my 11lb for an hour and then let it sit for the 2 hours and it turned out AMAZING!! Thanks for the recipe!

    I tried this cooking method with a 4.25# Prime Rib roast and was very disappointed. I roasted, according to the instructions, for a rare roast but it turned out to be a well done roast!

    Hubby and I made this a few months ago and I forgot to rate! It was fantastic! We both enjoyed it served with mashed potatoes and sauteed green beans, and au jus. Picky Hubby likes his nice and rare, and this recipe worked out great! :o)

    very good

    I've used a slight variation of this recipe (500* oven) & the prime rib turned out phenomenal! This is a fool proof recipe, especially when using an expensive cut of meat that you can't afford to ruin!

    As the title states...PERFECT!

    Worked perfectly! The rare was a bit too rare, frankly, so next time we'll do 6 min per lb.

    My very first time making prime rib and it turned out so soft! Hit of the NYE dinner party!

    Like others, I made this for Christmas dinner. My first time cooking prime rib and it came out absolutely amazing. I enjoyed drinking a few beers while 'slaving over a hot stove' preparing the prime rib.

    Just cooked my 9lb prime rib roast tonight using this method. My oven didn't go to 550 degrees either so I cooked it for 54 min and let it 'set' for 1 hr 45 min. Came out a perfect med rare! Hit of our Christmas dinner
