Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by removing your prime rib from the refrigerator at least 1 hour before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
  2. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) to create a crispy outer crust.
Seasoning
  1. Rub olive oil all over the prime rib, generously season with salt and pepper, and rub in the minced garlic and fresh herbs.
Roasting
  1. Place the roast bone-side down in a roasting pan. Roast at 450°F for about 20 minutes.
  2. Reduce the temperature to 325°F (163°C) and roast until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, about 1.5 to 2 hours.
Resting
  1. Let the prime rib rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
Serving
  1. Slice the prime rib into thick pieces and serve with your favorite sides.

Notes

Timing is crucial; use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking. Let your prime rib rest after cooking for juicy results. For Halal-friendly options, ensure the meat is sourced from trusted butchers.
