Pro Tips
- *The reverse-sear method (low then high) ensures even doneness from edge to edge.
- *A meat thermometer is essential — don't guess with an expensive cut like prime rib.
- *Save the bones for an incredible beef stock.
- *Let the roast rest for the full 30 minutes. This redistributes the juices for a moist, perfect slice.
