You will also need a good roasting pan with a roasting rack.

🥩 Instructions For Slow-Roasted Prime Rib

Step 1: Season roast generously with kosher salt or chunky sea salt and prime Rib seasoning and add slices of butter all around the rib roast.

Step 2: Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate, for 4-6 hours or overnight if you have time. Don't wrap the plastic wrap too tight.

Step 3: Remove the roast from the refrigerator and allow the prime rib to come to room temperature on a cutting board

Step 4: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. (95 degrees C) low temperature

Step 5: In a roasting pan with a wire rack, add sprigs of fresh rosemary, thyme, and beef broth or beef stock to the bottom of the roasting pan. Place the prime rib on top of the wire rack.

Step 6: Bake roast in the preheated oven until internal temperature reaches 115 degrees F (46 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 3 ½ hours. Remove from the oven and tent with aluminum foil; allow to rest, for about 20 minutes.

Step 7: Meanwhile, increase the oven temperature to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

Step 8: Once the oven has come up to temperature, uncover the rested roast and return it to the oven. Bake until well-browned, 6 to 10 minutes. Slice with a sharp knife on the fat side. Serve with creamy horseradish sauce or Au jus sauce from the bottom of the roasting pan and enjoy! Enjoy this easy side dish of Mandarin Orange Ginger Cranberry Sauce

🥩Tips and Tricks to Slow Roast Prime Rib

• The general rule of thumb is each pound of the roast is 1-rib. if you get a 5-pound roast, it's going to be five ribs.

• Each of the ribs will generally make about 2-3 steaks which means you'll have loads of leftover prime rib. 😊

• Try and pick out a marbled roast, the more marbling, the better because there is more fat.

• Remove the silver skin on the rib side before roasting to make cutting it easier. Otherwise, you have to fight through that skin when you are cutting between the ribs.
