American Wagyu Prime Rib

Ingredients

  • 1 American Wagyu Black® prime rib

  • 1/2 cup kosher salt
  • 30 turns black pepper
  • 7 garlic cloves
  • 10 sprigs thyme (picked leaves)
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F.
  2. Prepare your roasting pan by covering with foil and placing the rack in the pan.
  3. Clean the roast by removing any excess fat or tough sinew from the outside of the roast.
  4. Truss the roast to ensure a uniform shape and even cooking.
  5. In a food processor, blend the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic cloves, thyme, and extra virgin olive oil to form a paste.
  6. Generously rub the prime rib with the paste and place it on the prepared roasting rack.
  7. Place the roast in the oven and cook for approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 115°F for medium rare; 125°F for medium; 135°F for medium well.
  8. Remove the roast from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 500°F.
  9. Once your oven is preheated, place the roast back in the oven to sear for 5 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
  10. Remove the prime rib and allow to rest for 15 minutes before removing the twine and slicing.
  11. Serve as desired.
