Back when I first tried my hand at making prime rib, I did a LOT of research to find the perfect prime rib recipe. This is the foolproof method I ended up using, and I’ve been making it every Christmas ever since!

Perfect Christmas Prime Rib Recipe (Foolproof 500° Method)

lb Bone-in ribeye roast

tsp onion salt

salt

garlic powder

Mix up 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon each of onion salt, seasoned salt, and garlic powder, for a total of 1/4 cup of seasoning mix.

Pat the seasoning mix on both ends of the roast as well as the fat side. (The salt may not stick as well on the fat side, but don’t worry about it.)

Set the seasoned roast on a roasting rack, bone-side down and fat-side up. Place the rack in a large roasting pan, and insert your meat thermometer into the middle of the roast.

Place the roast into a 500° preheated oven, uncovered, and cook for 5-6 minutes per pound.

Then shut the oven off completely, and DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR TWO HOURS.&nbsp;

After two hours, check the temperature of the meat. If your thermometer reads 135-140°F, it’s done! (If it isn't quite to temp yet, just put it back in the oven at 375°F until it's done.)

Whisk 1 cup heavy cream in a mixing bowl until it forms stiff peaks.

Season with the white pepper to taste, 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish, and a dash of hot sauce (optional.) Stir gently until just combined, and serve alongside your delicious prime rib!
