Boneless Prime Rib Roast
Instructions
1
Season the prime rib liberally on all sides with salt and black pepper.
2
Line a roasting pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil and position a roasting rack inside of it.
3
Transfer the prime rib fat side up to the middle of the roasting rack. Tent the prime rib loosely with foil, and allow it to stand at room temperature for 1-2 hours.
4
Preheat the oven to 500°F.
5
Place the Dijon mustard, horseradish, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, and onion powder into a small bowl. Stir to combine.
6
Remove the foil tent from the roast. Using the back of a spoon, spread the mustard mixture over the top surface of the meat.
7
Roast the prime rib on middle rack of oven for 20 minutes.
8
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F. Continue roasting the prime rib until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 120-145°F, depending on desired doneness, 75-100 minutes.
9
Check to see that prime rib is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
10
Allow the prime rib to rest on the rack for 15-30 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board and untie. Carve and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers up to 5 days or freeze up to 6 months.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Dry Brine Your Roast 🧂Apply salt and seasonings 24 hours before cooking to allow deep penetration and create a flavorful crust. This dry-brining method breaks down proteins and enhances the meat's natural juices.
- Bloom Your Dried Herbs 🌿Toast the rosemary and thyme in a dry pan for 30 seconds before mixing into your spice rub to intensify their essential oils and depth of flavor.
- Reverse Sear Technique 🔥Roast at low temperature (275°F) until 10°F below target temperature, then sear in a screaming hot pan for a perfect crust while maintaining a perfectly even, rosy interior.
- Horseradish-Mustard Balance ⚖️Mix prepared horseradish and Dijon mustard in equal parts to create a complementary crust that won't overpower the prime rib's delicate beef flavor.
- Strategic Resting Period ⏱️Rest the finished roast for 15-20 minutes loosely tented with foil, allowing carryover cooking to finish and muscle fibers to relax for maximum juiciness when slicing.
