PRIME RIB ROAST AU JUS PERFECT EVERY TIME! NO FAIL

Steps:

• 1. Select a prime rib roast well marbleized with white or cream colored fat. (Follow these same directions for ANY size roast.) I choose a roast with at least 4 ribs or more. Also, I ask the butcher to remove the bones, put tie them back to the roast. This will make slicing so very easy!
• 2. Let meat stand at room temperature for at least one hour before cooking (longer is better). I leave it out on the counter for 4 hours. The goal is to get it to room temperature and let it stand at room temp (this aids in the cooking technique).
• 3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• 4. Rub meat with salt (if you have Lawry's seasoned salt, use it if not, regular salt also works); sprinkle with pepper.
• 5. Place meat on a rack fat side up in a shallow roasting pan. Make sure the sides of the pan are not too high. Maybe 2-3 inch sides or the meat will not brown properly. Also, make sure the roasting pan is only slightly bigger than the roast itself. This will allow the juices to accumulate and not evaporate! DO NOT COVER; DO NOT ADD WATER.
• 6. Put roast in oven; cook for just one hour at 375. It will crackle and get a beautiful layer or crust to it. After one hour, turn off heat, but DO NOT open oven door at any time until ready to serve. (You can do this step early on and let the oven cool down completely before turning on the oven again.)
• 7. Regardless of the length of time meat has been in the oven 30 - 40 minutes before serving, TURN OVEN ON again. Reset temperature to 375 degrees and set a timer for 30 minutes. Once the oven comes up to temperature (this may take up to 15 minutes), test the temperature of the meat. If not cooked to desire temperature, cook for the remaining 15 minutes or until desired temperature is reached. If your roast is a bit smaller, you can check the temperature around 20-25 minutes. You want around 120 degrees, because it will continue to cook as it rests (130 degrees for medium rare).
• 8. Now open the door; remove roast to serving platter.
• 9. Cover with foil, and let rest for 10-15 minutes. Save the pan drippings for Au Jus. You can also make Yorkshire puddings from the fat you reserve.
• 10. To Make the Au Jus Sauce, while the prime rib is resting, pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan. Place on the stove top over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring, to form a roux. Pour in the beef broth and whisk into the roux, scraping all the caramelized beef drippings from the bottom of the pan. Turn heat to high and cook the sauce for 10 minutes until it reduces and thickens slightly (this is not a gravy, so don't expect a thick, heavy sauce). Adjust seasoning, strain and serve alongside the prime rib.
• 11. The meat will be very brown and crisp on the outside. Carve into slices. You'll find it beautifully pink all the way through, juicily oozing the succulence which proves that the meat is a medium rare. NOTE: If you do not like medium rare meat, please do not make this roast! Prime rib should never be cooked to medium. It will end up like the bottom of your shoe! Leave the medium and well done meat for other cuts of your choice.

ROAST PRIME RIB WITH THYME AU JUS

Steps:

• Thirty minutes before roasting the prime rib, remove from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Make small slits all over the prime rib and fill each slit with a slice of the garlic. Season liberally with the salt and coarse pepper, place on a rack set inside a roasting pan and roast for about 2 hours until medium-rare, or until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 135 degrees F. Remove the meat to a platter, and tent with foil to keep warm.
• Place the roasting pan on top of the stove over 2 burners set on high heat. Add the wine to the pan drippings in the pan and cook over high heat until reduced, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the stock and cook until reduced by half. Whisk in the thyme and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Slice meat as desired and serve with thyme au jus.

EASY AU JUS FOR PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Place the roasting pan from cooking prime rib on the stove over low heat after removing the roast from the pan. If you prefer, you can also use a separate pan to cook the beef au jus.Whisk Worcestershire Sauce and Red Wine into the dish along with drippings from the beef. If using the original roasting pan, scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor. A wooden spoon works best for this.
• Add Beef Broth or juices from the prime rib. Bring to a simmer. Serve hot with sliced prime rib, and enjoy!

DELECTABLE PRIME RIB AND AU JUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Trim any thick pieces of dense, hard fat from the roast, but leave smaller areas of fat in place.
• In a bowl, mix 2 cups of beef base with minced garlic, and rub the mixture generously all over the roast. Sprinkle the roast with 1/2 cup of fresh thyme, 1/2 cup of oregano, the black peppercorns, and salt. Place into a roasting pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven until the meat has formed a brown crust and a quick-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the roast measures 135 degrees F (57 degrees C), for medium-rare, about 3 hours. If you prefer the meat well-done, roast an additional 45 minutes. Remove roast from oven, and allow to stand while you make the sauce. Temperature of the meat will rise about 10 more degrees as it rests.
• Pour the water into a saucepan, and dissolve 1 tablespoon of beef base in the water. Mix in the red wine, and stir in 1 teaspoon of thyme, 1 teaspoon of oregano, and the garlic powder. Add the celery, onion, and carrot pieces to the sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, and cook, stirring often, until the sauce reduces by half, 20 to 30 minutes. Strain sauce and discard vegetables before serving sauce with the roast.

PRIME RIB AU JUS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a paring knife make small slits into roast about 3-inches apart and press the garlic slivers into the slits. Using a pastry brush, coat the entire roast with the mustard. Sprinkle on the peppercorn and garlic marinade to completely cover the roast. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and cook until the thermometer inserted into the center reads 130 degrees F. Remove the roast from the oven, cover with foil and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• To make the Au Jus: Place the roasting pan over stovetop burners on medium low. Whisk in the worcestershire sauce and wine and scrape up the little brown bits from the bottom of the roasting pan. Reduce slightly and add the broth. Bring to a simmer and reduce slightly. Serve along with the sliced prime rib.

EASY STANDING RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
• Brush rib roast lightly with olive oil. Rub sea salt, black pepper, and garlic into the roast. Place fatty-side up on a rack set inside a shallow pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and tent pan with aluminum foil. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the rib roast registers 140 degrees (60 degrees C), about 1 hour.
• Let rib roast stand for 10 to 20 minutes before carving.

RIB ROAST AU JUS

Steps:

• Halve garlic cloves and insert into roast, poking holes with point of knife. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, remove roast from refrigerator 2 to 3 hours ahead of time to allow meat to come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 450*. Rub salt and pepper into roast (a light coating of olive oil may help), place fat side up in roasting pan and roast at 450* for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350* and continue roasting until internal temperature reaches 140* for medium rare. Remove from oven and let stand on cutting board for 20 minutes before carving.
• While roast is resting, place roasting pan on stove top over high heat. Add wine and cook for several minutes, scraping up any brown bits. Add beef stock, cook and reduce by half (about 20 minutes). Serve with sliced roast.
