📝 Preparation Steps
1
PRIME RIB: Take prime rib out of the refridgerator atleast ⏱️ 2 - 3 hours before cooking to bring to room temperature. Pat dry all over with paper towel.
2
PREHEAT: STANDARD oven to 460˚F (240°C) | FAN/CONVECTION 430˚F (220°C).
3
GARLIC BUTTER: Mix together the butter and garlic and 1/2 tablespoon of salt in a small bowl until combined.
heads garlic (unpeeled and halved horizontally, unpeeled keeps it together)2garlic (minced)5 cloves
4
SKILLET OR ROASTING PAN: Arrange garlic halves in a heavy-based pan or cast-iron skillet. Spread 2 tablespoons of garlic butter on the underside of the beef (bone-side) to completely coat. Place the roast, bone-side down, in the pan/skillet on top of the garlic halves (the bones create a natural roasting rack for the meat). Spread another 2-3 tablespoons of garlic butter on the top and sides, rubbing into the flesh. Coat well.Season with remaining salt and pepper.

REDUCE OVEN TEMPERATURE: STANDARD oven 250°F (120°C) | FAN/CONVECTION oven 220°F (100°C).
8
COVER WITH FOIL and continue to slow roast for 1 - 1 1/⏱️ 2 hours, basting every ⏱️ 20-30 minutes with the pan juices, until reaching your desired preference. Internal temperature should read 118°F | 48°C for med/rare. (TIP: Start checking internal temperature after ⏱️ 45 minutes of roasting. Continue to keep checking with each baste to ensure it doesn't over cook.)

Once cooked to your liking, allow to rest for ⏱️ 20 minutes. The roast will continue to cook as the juices inside settle, raising the internal temperature to 130°F | 55°C for a perfect medium-rare prime rib.
10
REST: Transfer roast to serving plate, tent loosely with foil and let rest for ⏱️ 20 - 30 minutes. Internal temperature will rise to 125°F (52°C) for medium rare.
