Thread: Prime Rib / Standing Rib Roast

Here is a recipe I just came across for a Prime Rib Roast not sure if it is new or old but I am going to try it out for Christmas Dinner this year.
I have always used the Salt Encrusted method in the past with good results but a ton of work, this looks almost too simple not to try

Has anyone else tried it ??? any Do's or Dont's ???

Directions:


1.Place rib roast on a plate and bring to room temperature, about 4 hours.
2.Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
3.Combine butter, pepper, and herbes de Provence in a bowl; mix until well blended. Spread butter mixture evenly over entire roast. Season roast generously with kosher salt.
4.Roast the 4-pound prime rib (see footnote if using a larger and smaller roast) in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn the oven off and, leaving the roast in the oven with the door closed, let the roast sit in the oven for 2 hours. Remove roast from the oven, slice, and serve.


If you try it this year update the thread with the outcome
