I had to share this photo of my prime rib. I used the 500/Closed door method this time and it was perfect. The meat gets seared in a 500 degree oven for 5-6 min per pound (I went with 6), and then turn off the oven but DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR for 2 hours. They say it's no fail. I think they are right. The center temp was 139 when we took it out. We had a thermometer in it that we can read outside the oven.

Use one of those, and if this is too red for you, then all you do is turn the oven back on to 350 and then check the internal temp every 10 minutes. But, do not open the oven to check it at any time. For medium, I think you want to go to 145. Rely on the temperature. So you really need the right thermometer. Fortunately they are not expensive on Amazon.

Maybe you all knew about this method, but this is the first time I heard of it, so I thought I would share.

We cut right through the middle because we both wanted a center cut. Tomorrow we'll slice some for French dip sandwiches and then slice the rest to go in the freezer for future quick meals.

"The perfect prime rib" method. It's the only method I have used.
Did you do the au jus?

Nice job!

It was definitely a new method for me to use. I always started with a high oven then down to 325 for an hour and half, or until the thermometer read 135. "The perfect prime rib" is a good name for it.

I did make au jus and horsey sauce. But, I have to say, it was so good that I ate a whole slice of the prime rib. That's something I haven't done for years. My tummy was unhappy for a few hours. I eat very little meat and that was too much for my system. Back to salads today for me!!! I will always cook for DH, and I generally have a sampling of it.

French dip sandwiches for dinner tonight for him. I'll have a little PR on my salad.

Food Wishes on YT is where I first heard of it.

It makes me want to pick up a two-bone prime rib now
