Step 1

Start your sous vide machine preheating. I prefer 131°F (55.0°C) for medium rare or 141°F (60.5°C) for medium.

Step 2

Lightly salt the meat then coat with the spices.

Step 3

Seal the prime rib roast in a sous vide bag, Ziploc-brand freezer bag, silicon bag, or other food- and heat-safe bag or zip top bag.

Step 4

Place the sealed meat in the sous vide bath and cook until heated through, which depends on the thickness and is usually an hour for a 1" steak but for a roast I'll usually do 4 to 8 hours.

Step 5

Once fully cooked, take the sous vide bag out of the water bath and remove the prime rib roast from the bag. Pat it dry with a paper towel or dish cloth.

Step 6

Sear the prime rib roast for 1 to 2 minutes per side over high heat. It should just start to brown but the core temperature shouldn't rise. Remove it from the heat.

Step 7

Place the prime rib roast onto a plate with any salads or sides then serve.
