Ingredients
- prime rib roast (allow 250g per person)
- 2 Tbsps Worcestershire sauce
- 11⁄4 Tbsps salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1⁄2 tsp white pepper
- 11⁄2 tsps garlic powder
- 11⁄2 tsp crushed thyme
Method
Step 1
Grind some freshly ground black pepper over the meat and let the prime rib roast stand at room temperature for about an hour.
Step 2
Mix the salt, pepper, white pepper, garlic powder and crushed thyme together in a small bowl. Poke holes in the roast at 1 inches intervals with a fork.
Step 3
Rub top and sides of roast with the Worcestershire sauce. Rub the powdered seasonings all over the top and sides of roast.
Step 4
Place fat side up in a firm baking tray. Don’t cover and don’t add water/liquid. Preheat oven to 260°C then turn down to 180°C when you put the roast in (this will sear the outside and keep in the flavours).
Step 5
The actual roasting time will depend on the size roast that you have.
Step 6
Roast for 18-22 minutes per 500g for medium rare. Let it stand 30-40 minutes until internal temperature reaches 140°C before cutting. A general guide would be: 140°C is rare, 150°C is medium, 170°C is well done.
Step 7
Serve with gravy, roast potatoes and a selection of seasonal vegetables.
