Boneless Prime Rib Roast with Herbs and Vegetables

Prep 5 min
Total 1 hr 35 min
Ingredients 10
Servings 6

I only prepare this cut of meat for special occasions since it's a little expensive, but I promise the investment is worth it. The meat is incredibly juicy and soft if you cook it correctly. Prime rib roast can be purchased with or without bone. I personally prefer it without bone, since it's easier to cut and serve, but I know the version with bone is also very popular. This variation uses herbs to highlight the flavor of the meat, making it that much more irresistible! Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 prime rib roast (about 5-6 lb)
8 cloves garlic, 4 whole and 4 crushed
Salt and black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons rosemary leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped finely
4-6 medium potatoes, washed and coarsely chopped
2-3 carrots, washed, peeled and cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

1

Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator 2 hours before cooking. It's very important that the meat reach room temperature.
2

Preheat oven to 450°F.
3

Season the meat with salt and pepper to taste. With a knife, make 4 cuts on top of the meat, insert a garlic clove on top of each and set aside.
4

In a small bowl, mix the butter with the mashed garlic.
5

Cover the meat with the butter mix.
6

Mix the herbs in a small bowl and rub this mixture onto the surface of the meat until covering completely.
7

Place in an iron skillet or in a baking dish with the fatty part facing up. Arrange the vegetables around it and sprinkle with olive oil. Bake for 45 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 325°F and keep baking until the internal temperature reaches 125°F, about 30 more minutes.
8

Let sit for 20 minutes before cutting.

Serve and enjoy!
