Prime Rib in an Electric Roaster

By

Ingredients

  • 6 - to 8-pound standing prime rib roast
  • Salt and pepper
  • Garlic (optional)
  • Thyme or rosemary (optional)
  • Steak seasoning (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the roaster to 325 degrees.


Place the prime rib roast on the roasting rack that came with the roaster.


Season the roast with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, sprinkle the prime rib with up to six cloves of minced garlic, 1 to 2 tsp. thyme or rosemary or 1 tbsp. steak seasoning. Press the seasonings into the roast with your hands.


Place the rack with the meat into the cooking well of the roaster oven. Cover the oven with the lid.


Cook the prime rib roast for 13 to 15 minutes per pound. Insert a meat thermometer into the roast to check for doneness. A rare roast is ready when the temperature is 130 degrees Fahrenheit, a medium roast will read 140 and a well-done prime rib will read 150 on the thermometer.
