Prime rib

One of the most popular and well-known recipes for prime rib is the one created by James Beard in the 1950s. This recipe calls for a beef roast to be rubbed with a mixture of garlic, salt, and pepper, then roasted in a hot oven until the exterior is nicely browned and the interior is cooked to the desired level of doneness. The roast is then allowed to rest for a few minutes before carving, so that the juices can redistribute throughout the meat.

This method of cooking prime rib results in a juicy and flavorful roast that is perfect for a holiday meal or special occasion. While there are many different ways to cook prime rib, the Beard recipe is still one of the most popular and beloved.

If you are looking for a delicious prime rib recipe, you can find many different variations online or in cookbooks.

Advice

When making prime rib, it is important to cook it at a low temperature for a long time to ensure that the meat is cooked through and becomes tender and juicy. Start by preheating the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and seasoning the rib with salt, pepper, and other desired herbs and spices. Place the rib in a roasting pan, fat side up, and roast for about 15 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature of the meat is 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Allow the rib to rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing in order to allow the juices to be distributed throughout the meat. Enjoy!
