Follow The Directions

01

Step

Dissolve 2 teaspoons kosher salt in 1/2 cup water. Wipe down prime rib with kosher salt water mixture. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Pour enough sea salt over a rimmed baking sheet until completely covered; sprinkle Himalayan pink salt on top. Place a roasting rack over salt on baking sheet. Place prime rib on the rack and refrigerate at 34 to 38 degrees F (1 to 3 degrees C), uncovered, for 30 to 40 days. (1 minute)

03

Step

Remove prime rib from the refrigerator. Trim fat as needed. Transfer the rack into a roasting pan; place prime rib on top. Spray prime rib with water; season generously with kosher salt. Refrigerate 24 to 48 hours to let meat absorb salt. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Remove prime rib from the refrigerator; cover loosely with aluminum foil until warmed up slightly, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Insert a probe thermometer into the prime rib. (20 minutes)

06

Step

Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Bake until desired doneness is reached, about 90 minutes. [125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, or 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium] Rest prime rib before slicing, 30 minutes. (2 hours)

For optimal results, ensure your refrigerator maintains a consistent temperature between 34 and 38 degrees F (1 to 3 degrees C) during the dry-aging process.
Consider using a dedicated meat thermometer for precise temperature monitoring during roasting. This will help you achieve your desired level of doneness with confidence.
Resting the prime rib is crucial for allowing the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast. Do not skip this step!
