CLASSIC ROAST PRIME RIB OF BEEF AU JUS
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.

CHEF JOHN'S PERFECT PRIME RIB
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.

Tips:
- Choose the right prime rib roast. Look for a roast that is at least 3 inches thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the roast is juicy and flavorful.
- Season the roast generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add fresh herbs, such as rosemary or thyme.
- Cook the roast at a low temperature. This will help to prevent the roast from drying out. Cook the roast for about 20 minutes per pound.
- Let the roast rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the roast, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Make a delicious au jus gravy. Use the pan drippings from the roast to make a flavorful gravy. This gravy is perfect for serving with the prime rib.

Prime rib is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for special occasions. By following these tips, you can cook a perfect prime rib roast that will be enjoyed by everyone at the table.
