Best 6 Perfectly Juice Prime Rib Recipes

Prime rib is a luxurious cut of meat that is perfect for special occasions. It is known for its rich flavor and tender texture. The key to cooking a perfectly juicy prime rib is to cook it slowly and evenly. This can be done in the oven, on the grill, or in a smoker. Once the prime rib is cooked, it should be rested for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

CHEF JOHN'S PERFECT PRIME RIB



Chef John's Perfect Prime Rib image

This is a specific formula for achieving a perfectly pink prime rib cooked somewhere a shade under medium rare. To use this method you must have a full-sized, modern oven with a digital temperature setting that indicates when it is preheated. Older ovens with manual controls can vary greatly, and the doors may not have the proper insulation.

Categories     Dinner     Entree

Time 5h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

For the Prime Rib:
1 standing beef rib roast (4 to 7 ribs, 9 to 18 pounds)
Black pepper to taste (fresh, coarse-ground)
2 to 3 teaspoons kosher salt (or other larger grain, flake-style sal)
2 to 3 tablespoons butter (softened)
For the Au Jus:
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1-quart beef broth (cold, 4 cups)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator and place it in a large roasting pan with at least 3-inch sides.
  • Rub the entire surface of the roast with the butter and coat evenly with salt and pepper. Let the prime rib stand at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 F. When the oven is hot, put the roast in and cook for 20 minutes to sear the outside of the roast. After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and roast until the desired internal temperature is reached (see below). For medium-rare meat, this will take approximately 15 minutes per pound.
  • Transfer the roast to a large platter and loosely tent it with foil. Let it rest for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Gather the ingredients for the au jus.
  • Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the roasting pan and place the pan on the stovetop over medium heat.
  • Add the flour. Cook, while stirring, for 5 minutes to form a roux or paste.
  • Pour in the beef broth and whisk, scraping all the caramelized beef drippings from the bottom of the pan. Increase the heat to high and cook the sauce, whisking often, for 10 minutes or until it reduces and thickens slightly.
  • Adjust the seasoning, strain, and serve alongside the prime rib in a gravy boat or pourable bowl.

PERFECTLY JUICE PRIME RIB



Perfectly Juice Prime Rib image

This is my "tradmark" Christmas Eve Dinner. DH won't even order prime rib in a restaurant anymore, because he prefers mine. Its a super easy recipe, great for dinner parties, but DO NOT alter cooking times or directions. And DO NOT carve until just before serving. Here NEEDS a clarification!!! The salt is only intended to produce a shell to keep the moisture in. It's not intended to be consumed unless of course you like extremely salty foods. AFTER the roast has rested for 15 mins. Lightly scrape the salt away but not so much that you remove all the seasonings

Categories     Roast Beef

Time 5h10m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 prime rib roast (size doesn't matter)
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup rosemary
1/4 cup horseradish powder
1/4 cup garlic powder
1/8 cup cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine seasonings, and rub into roast.
  • Let sit while oven preheats to 375.
  • Place roast in broiling pan, fat side up or bone side up.
  • Bake for 45 minutes.
  • Turn oven off, DO NOT OPEN OVEN.
  • One hour before serving, turn oven back on 45 minutes.
  • Take rib out, LET STAND FOR 15 MINUTES.
  • This is VERY important, it allows the juices to distribute.
  • Do not carve "ahead of time", either. Scrape off the salt "shell." The meat directly underneath that will be very salty, but that's usually the fatty part that no one eats, anyways. The rest of it will be fine, I PROMISE!
  • Serve with au jus and horseradish sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 4-bone prime rib, bones and excess fat removed and reserved
4 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 cloves garlic, unpeeled, smashed
4 ounces arugula (optional)
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil (optional)

Steps:

  • Liberally season the prime rib with the salt and some pepper and refrigerate overnight.
  • An hour before cooking, remove the roast from the refrigerator to allow it to come to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the reserved ribs in a roasting pan bowed-side up (the ribs will be acting as the roasting rack). Scatter any fat and meat trimmings in the pan around the bones. Roast the bones and trimmings for about 30 minutes, or until the fat starts to render.
  • Remove the pan from the oven, put the rosemary sprigs on top of the bones, then top with the prime rib. Put the smashed garlic in the bottom of the pan with the trimmings. Baste the beef with the fat drippings and return the pan to the oven.
  • Cook for 30 minutes and then baste the roast again.
  • Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the meat is medium rare (an internal temperature of 125 degrees F to 130 degrees F), about 1 hour, 15 minutes, basting the roast every 30 minutes until it is done. Keep in mind that the roast will continue to cook while resting.
  • Remove the roast from the oven and put it on a cutting board to rest, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Slice the prime rib to the desired thickness and garnish with the arugula and olive oil.

KITTENCAL'S PERFECT PRIME RIB ROAST BEEF



Kittencal's Perfect Prime Rib Roast Beef image

NOTE...THE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE NOT THE TIME IS YOUR BEST GUARANTEE FOR DONENESS so for a perfectly cooked prime rib roast invest in a meat thermometer and you will never go wrong with this recipe! --- if desired you may omit the au jus and just serve the roast, I prefer to make the au jus especially if I am serving this at a holiday table --- use nothing else but only fresh garlic, a little salt and lots of fresh ground black pepper for this or you could use 1 teaspoon garlic salt, using any other spices will take away the flavor, nothing else is needed --- cooking on very high heat then reducing the temperature will seal in all the meat juices to produce the most tender and flavorful prime rib, this actually is the method that a lot of the higher end restaurants use to make there prime rib and is the method I always use when I make prime rib roast at my home --- the cooking time stated on the recipe is for a 3-4 pound prime rib, you can use this method for a larger prime rib and increase the cooking time please see bottom of directions --- for a perfectly cooked prime rib roast a meat thermometer inserted in the roast should read about 140 degrees for medium-rare doneness, it is advised not to cook prime rib more that medium-rare ----- using more that the specified amount of salt will draw out the juices from the roast, you could add a little more but it is best to salt the meat after it is cooked, using a minimum amount of salt will insure a juicy tender prime rib roast, 1 teaspoon or less of salt will be fine, remember to remove your roast from the fridge about 2 hours before cooking --- also see my recipe#146196 this is a must served with prime rib!

Time P1DT1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 -4 lbs center-cut prime rib roast, nicely marbled, and trimmed, but leave a layer of fat on top of roast for flavor
8 fresh large garlic cloves, sliced in half (or use many as desired)
fresh ground black pepper (use lots!)
1/2 teaspoon white salt (can use up to 1 teaspoon salt) or 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (can use up to 1 teaspoon salt)
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups beef stock (or use a good quality beef broth)

Steps:

  • Using a knife, poke small holes all over uncooked roast, and insert a half of a clove of fresh garlic in the hole (as many holes and as much garlic as desired).
  • Cover roast, and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, remove the roast from fridge and uncover; let sit out at room temperature for about 2 to 2-1/2 hours (this is an important step to relax the meat fibers, it will make for a more tender juicy roast, the length of counter-time will depend on the size of your roast).
  • Set oven to 450°F and allow the oven to preheat for a minimum of 15 minutes.
  • Season the roast with only a small amount of salt but lots of fresh ground black pepper pepper (that's all nothing else but a little salt and fresh ground black pepper, using any other spices will take away the flavor from the prime rib!).
  • Place the roast fat-side up on a rack in a shallow-sided pan, then insert a meat thermometer in the middle of the roast but not touching any rib bones.
  • Roast uncovered at 450°F for 20 minutes (a few more minutes won't hurt at 450°F).
  • After 20 minutes of high heat cooking reduce heat to 350°F and continue to roast for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes OR until the meat thermometer reads 130°F for rare doneness OR 140°F for medium-rare doneness, that is the way a prime rib really should be served, check your roast after 1 hour cooking time.
  • *NOTE* It is strongly advised to remove the roast slightly before desired degree of doneness is achieved as the roast will continue to rise in temperature several degrees after removing from the oven.
  • Remove meat to a carving board.
  • Cover loosely with foil and allow let rest (DO NOT CUT INTO ROAST for at least 20 or more minutes or all juices in the meat will flow out).
  • While the roast is resting prepare the au jus; place the roasting pan on top of the stove over high heat.
  • Add in the wine; cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring and scraping any brown bits.
  • Add in the beef stock; cook and reduce the juice by half (this might take about 20 minutes).
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Slice roast (just before serving!) and drizzle with some of the juice.
  • *NOTE* if desired you can cover the roast loosely with foil the first hour and then uncover and cook for the remaining time.
  • --------------------------------------------.
  • APPROXIMATE COOKING TIMES for the prime rib cooked at 350°F after the 20 minute cooking time at 450°F.
  • Rare; cook 12-13 minutes per pound or to 130°F.
  • Medium-rare; cook 14-16 minutes per pound or to 140°F (I would not recommend cooking a prime rib any more than medium-rare).
  • Since every oven cooks differently cooking times are only approximate.
  • SUGGESTED SERVING PORTIONS PER PERSON ----for a generous serving of prime rib roast you should figure on 2 people per rib, that means if you plan to serve 6 people you should be able to do so with 3 ribs/ eight people with 4 ribs/ do not bother with less than 3 ribs anything less than that is not a roast but rather a steak and would be better treated as such.

Tips:

  • Choose the right prime rib roast. Look for a roast that is well-marbled with a good amount of fat. This will help to keep the meat moist and flavorful.
  • Season the roast generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Let the roast come to room temperature before cooking. This will help to ensure that the meat cooks evenly.
  • Roast the meat at a low temperature. This will help to prevent the meat from drying out. The ideal internal temperature for prime rib is 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare.
  • Let the roast rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Prime rib is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for special occasions. By following these tips, you can ensure that your prime rib turns out perfectly juicy and flavorful.
