Best Sues Perfect Prime Rib Recipes

PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Liberally season the prime rib with the salt and some pepper and refrigerate overnight.
• An hour before cooking, remove the roast from the refrigerator to allow it to come to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the reserved ribs in a roasting pan bowed-side up (the ribs will be acting as the roasting rack). Scatter any fat and meat trimmings in the pan around the bones. Roast the bones and trimmings for about 30 minutes, or until the fat starts to render.
• Remove the pan from the oven, put the rosemary sprigs on top of the bones, then top with the prime rib. Put the smashed garlic in the bottom of the pan with the trimmings. Baste the beef with the fat drippings and return the pan to the oven.
• Cook for 30 minutes and then baste the roast again.
• Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the meat is medium rare (an internal temperature of 125 degrees F to 130 degrees F), about 1 hour, 15 minutes, basting the roast every 30 minutes until it is done. Keep in mind that the roast will continue to cook while resting.
• Remove the roast from the oven and put it on a cutting board to rest, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Slice the prime rib to the desired thickness and garnish with the arugula and olive oil.

THE BEST PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Pat the skin of the roast completely dry and place on a cutting board, fat-side up. Use a paring knife to make small slits all over the fat, and then stud the meat with the garlic slices. Sprinkle all over with the salt and pepper, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Unwrap the roast and place fat-side up on a rack set in a roasting pan.
• Roast the meat until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 120 degrees F, about 4 hours. Remove from the oven and let sit for 1 hour. The temperature will continue to rise another 10 to 14 degrees as it sits.
• Turn the oven to 500 degrees F. Place the roast back in the oven and bake until the fatty skin starts to crisp up and turn golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let rest another 30 minutes before transferring to a cutting board for slicing.

SOUS VIDE PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Prepare a thermocirculator and water bath according to manufacturer's directions. Set thermocirculator to 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) and allow water bath to come up to temperature. Season rib roast evenly with 1 tablespoon salt and transfer to a large vacuum-sealable bag; arrange butter cubes, thyme sprigs, and crushed garlic around rib roast in bag.
• Seal bag with a vacuum sealer according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer vacuum-sealed rib roast to warm water bath with thermocirculator, cover vessel with aluminum foil to reduce evaporation, and cook for 6 hours. Remove rib roast from bag; roast will be at 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) when pulled from water bath. Transfer to a rimmed sheet pan lined with paper towels and gently pat dry; reserve contents remaining in bag.
• Preheat the oven to broil with an oven rack positioned about 10 inches below the heat source. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and fit with a wire rack.
• Season rib roast evenly with remaining tablespoon salt and pepper and place on the prepared baking pan.
• Cook rib roast in the preheated oven until fat cap is deeply caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer rib roast to a large cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain into 1- to 1 1/2-inch thick slices; garnish sliced prime rib with flaky sea salt to taste.
• While rib roast is in the oven, combine reserved contents from vacuum bag and mushrooms in a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are mostly tender and liquid has reduced completely, 8 to 10 minutes. Add wine and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until wine is almost completely reduced, about 5 minutes. Add beef broth and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 15 minutes; remove thyme sprigs and discard. Season mushroom sauce to taste with salt and serve alongside sliced prime rib.

SUE'S PERFECT PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Combine garlic and herbs, then rub the mixture evenly over the surface of the meat.
• Roasting:
• Because rib cuts are more tender, dry heat roasting (no cover and no added liquid) is preferred. Moist heat is used to tenderize tougher cuts of meat, but may also result in greater shrinkage and drier meat.
• Place meat on a cooking rack, fat side up, in a shallow roasting pan. Do not place meat in a cooking bag, nor place a cover of any kind over the meat.
• Roast at 350, for 18-24 minutes per pound. Medium-rare (145 degrees final internal temperature), medium (155 degrees internal temperature), and well-done (165 degrees internal temperature).
• Note:.
• Over cooking meat will dry it out, and toughen it.
• Internal temperature of meat will continue to raise 5 more degrees during standing time.
• Carving:.
• Allow roast to stand 15-20 minutes before carving.
• Proper carving will make meat more tender.
• Slice across the grain of meat.
• Serve with horseradish and au jus, as desired.
• Au Jus:.
• Remove meat from pan, and drain off excess fat.
• Place pan on top of stove, and add onions. Cook and stir over medium heat 3-5 minutes.
• Add broth. Stir until meat juices attached to pan are dissolved.
• Continue to simmer until liquid is reduced to desired strength.
