Invest in a high-quality meat thermometer for accurate temperature readings. An instant-read thermometer is ideal. For a more intense flavor, consider using freshly minced garlic and freshly ground Italian seasoning. Don't skip the resting period! It's crucial for achieving a juicy, tender roast. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or Yorkshire pudding. Homemade horseradish cream complements the richness of the prime rib perfectly. Simply whisk together horseradish, sour cream, and a touch of lemon juice to taste. Adjust the Montreal steak seasoning to your liking. Some blends can be quite salty, so taste and adjust accordingly. If you prefer a rare roast, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135 degrees F (54-57 degrees C).

Follow The Directions
01
Step
0 mins
Prepare Ingredients: Ensure all ingredients are readily available. (5 minutes)
02
Step
0 mins
Prepare the Roast: Place the prime rib roast, bone-side down, on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan. This allows for even heat circulation. (2 minutes)
03
Step
0 mins
Create the Flavor Paste: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Montreal steak seasoning, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and mustard powder until a fragrant paste forms. (3 minutes)
04
Step
45 mins
Apply the Paste: Generously spread the flavor paste evenly over the entire surface of the prime rib roast, ensuring a consistent coating. (5 minutes)
05
Step
20 mins
Rest at Room Temperature: Allow the seasoned roast to sit at room temperature for approximately 45 minutes. This helps the meat cook more evenly. (45 minutes)
06
Step
2 hrs
Initial High-Heat Sear: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Bake the roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes to develop a rich, flavorful crust. (20 minutes)
07
StepReduce Heat and Continue Cooking: After the initial sear, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, being careful not to touch the bone. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Continue cooking until the roast reaches your desired degree of doneness – 145 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium. This will take approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours, depending on your oven and the roast's thickness. (90-120 minutes)
08
StepRest Before Carving: Once the roast reaches the desired internal temperature, remove it from the oven. Tent it loosely with a double layer of aluminum foil and let it rest in a warm place for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast. (10-15 minutes)
09
StepCarve and Serve: Carve the prime rib against the grain into slices of your desired thickness. Serve immediately and enjoy!
