That's the way I usually prepare my (bone in) prime rib. Preheat oven to
500F. Stud the roast with garlic, sprinkle well with black pepper and a
little salt. I also pat on a small amount of thyme on it. Pop it in a
roasting pan and into the oven. Turn down the heat to 375F and roast for
one hour. Turn the oven off and don't open the door. Let it sit in the hot
oven for 2 hours. Turn it back on at 375F and roast about 40 minutes.
Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before slicing. The roast comes
out graduated from nearly well done on the ends to medium-rare in the
middle.
