Rastelli Prime Rib Roast Cooking Instructions
Juicy and delicious is what this Rastelli cut of meat is all about! And you can see this for yourself.
Ingredients
- 4 lbs Rastelli Prime Rib Roast
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Rosemary
- 1 tsp Thyme
- Salt and Pepper to Taste
Instructions
- Once you take the Rastelli prime rib roast out of the fridge, you need to let it rest for about an hour or two.
- While you wait for the meat to rest, use this time to pat it dry and season it. Take a paper napkin and pat the cut drawing out the excess moisture.
- Rub the olive oil and the spices in about 30 minutes before you cook the beef. Use this time to preheat the oven to 450 °F i.e., 230 °C.
- Place the tray with the rack and the prime on it in the middle of the oven so it cooks evenly on all sides. Cook 5 minutes per pound, and since Rastelli prime rib is about 4.5 pounds, that’s under 25 minutes in total.
- Don't lower the temperature, and don't open the oven door.
- Once the 25 minutes are over, turn off the oven, but don’t touch the door, much less take the meat out. Let the prime rib roast sit in the oven for two hours without disturbing it in any way.
- Once the two hours in the oven finish, take the roast out and place it on the counter. Let it rest for 30 more minutes. This additional resting time allows for the flavors and juices to distribute evenly throughout so that nothing spills or squirts when you serve your delicious meat.
- To make the time go faster, you can use this half an hour to set the table, decorate the plates, or just relax with a glass of wine before your feast.
