Google is your friend . I ran across this recipe many times when
planning my beef roast for Christmas. Still not sure how i feel about
leaving the oven off for so long, and leaving the roast out at room
temperature for an hour.

Prime Rib Roast, at room temperature (very important)
Dijon mustard
Fresh thyme
Fresh garlic cloves, minced
Kosher salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
Au Jus (**recipe below)
Horseradish sauce

The rib roast, bone side down, starting at the tail or narrow end, make
a flap by cutting the fat strip on top of the meat, going toward the
thicker part, as far as you can without severing it. Lay the fat strip
back, and set aside.

Mix Dijon, thyme, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Spread this
mixture on the meat underneath the flap which you just made. Replace the
flap and use kitchen string to loosely wrap the meat to keep the flap in
place as it roasts, otherwise the flap will curl up. Place roast in oven
in a shallow roasting pan.

Make sure your roast is at room temperature before you place it in the
oven, otherwise you will have an uncooked roast at the end of the
cooking cycle.

Set the oven temperature at 500° degrees F.
Multiply the roast poundage on the package times 5 minutes to determine
the amount of time the meat will roast at 500° degrees F. Be as
accurate as possible! example: if your roast weighs 5.53 pounds, then
multiply 5.53 (pounds) times 5 (minutes) which equals = 27.65. This
means you will roast your meat for (27.65) or 28 minutes. At the end of
the 28 minutes, turn the oven temperature off. Leave the roast in the
oven for at least 2 hours.

During this 2 hour time, do not open the oven door as the meat is still
cooking.

This method will produce a perfect prime rib, guaranteed, every time, if
you follow the instructions carefully.

Prepare au jus, recipe follows. Place a thick slice of prime rib on each
plate. Use two small containers, one for horse radish sauce and the
other for au jus for dipping and serve.
