This is my first time cooking prime rib. It was perfect. My husband said it was worth a slice - so thank you! It really was perfect prime rib! Cooked uncovered. The house filled with smoke but it was worth it. Used coconut oil on the outside before rubbing with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. It was AMAZING!

Best recipe everrrr! Literally just finished eating and both my husband and son absolutely loved it! We are so amazed at how easy it was! They even told me it might be better than my penne a la vodka which has been their top favorite! My son is a VERY picky eater by the way. Thank you so much for this perfect recipe.

I have made this several times. Its always perfect. Always a hit. When I tell people they can hardly believe it. But when they try it they say the same thing. This is a perfect 10 recipe.

We love prime Rib, but we always buy it with the bone, does this work the same way? If so I would love to try this recipe, we are having a lot of family for Christmas dinner.

I've made 3 of these so far and every single one was done to perfection. Most ovens don't go as high... Just use your highest temp and it won't make a difference. Absolutely fabulous and thank you for sharing!

I made this for Christmas one year and since my oven was far too busy to leave shut for 2 hours, I cooked it in my kiln - perfection. It's now part of our holiday tradition.

Sounds yummy! But if I were to cook two 15 pound roast, is it double the cooking time??

This recipe works perfectly every time, and is so EASY. I also use it for whole beef tenderloin.

I follow the initial time at 500-550°F with about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes at 325°F depending on the size or the roast. This produces a meat that is more well-done at the small end to incredibly beautiful rare on the large end. It satisfies everyone's preferences. I also through medium sized potatoes (soaked for an hour in water, poked, and wrapped tightly in foil) in for baking right from the outset. While the meat is resting, I put the potatoes together in a bowl and cover with a towel. Steam a simple vegetable like asparagus or broccoli. After the rolls have been heated, All can go on the table at once. You will look like a genius! It's great for a first time dinner party.

No one mentioned how much smoke this method would create. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone without a good exhaust fan. However, roast turned out very well even with sitting on the back porch for a bit and cooking it at about 200 for the rest of the time.

I have used the perfect prime rib everytime I have made.. I get nothing but positive feed back from everyone.. So thank you Richard Danz, you are a hit at my house every holiday and special occasion... I always send the to Cooks.com to find it ... Thank you again

I use this recipe every Christmas - it's the best AND the easiest! Thanks Richard

This recipe is the perfect, easy way to prepare Prime Rib if... The original recipe called to set the roast out of the refrigerator for 3 hrs to room temperature BEFORE cooking... If you are getting a bloody prime rib, it was most likely put in the oven right out of the fridge *or someone opened the oven* :) So, apply the rub and let it set for 3-4 hrs before cooking.

This recipe was amazing!!! My prime rib was perfect. Thank you for your recipe.

I used this as a guide for our Christmas Eve dinner of Prime Rib. I would like to point out the person making this must have a self cleaning oven for it to work right or a well insulated oven, mine is neither, so my modification for a regular oven is to turn down the oven to 200°F for the 2 hours and then get it right out and wrap it in foil if it's 118°F core temp and left it rest for an additional 20-30 minutes. I loved the crust the hot oven made coupled with my rub, it was by far the best Prime Rib I have ever eaten or made and yes I was a 5 star Chef at one time in my life. I would have given this recipe 5 stars if they didn't overlook this fact about the oven otherwise

Was the best ever. Will make prime like this again. Thanks.
