My husband and I made this delicious meal this last weekend. Have never tried to make a prime rib roast before, but will most diffently do it again. I did look up several recipes on the interent and decided to go with this one. It was not hard at all, you must try to cook one. I was afraid that I would be horrible at it. But actually the roast turned good! :) YEA!!!!
This is what you will need:
•1 prime rib roast, about 6 to 8 pounds
•1/2 cup red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Noir
•1/4 cup olive oil
•4 cloves garlic, finely minced
•1 teaspoon salt
•1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
•1 teaspoon Cajun or Creole seasoning blend
•1 tablespoon brown sugar
•Freshly ground black pepper and salt
Preparation:
Poke several holes in the top of the roast with a sharp carving fork; put the roast in a large food storage bag or bowl. Combine the wine, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, seasoning blend, and brown sugar. Pour the wine mixture over the roast, seal the bag, and turn several times to coat thoroughly. Or, turn in the bowl until thoroughly coated and cover the bowl. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
Heat oven to 400°. Put the roast on a rack in a large shallow pan. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and salt. Cover tightly with foil and roast for 45 minutes. Reduce heat to 325° and remove the foil. Continue roasting to 155° for medium rare, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours longer. Remove from the oven and cover loosely with foil. Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing.
Serves 4 to 6.
