Dry Aged Prime Rib Roast
- 1 whole Prime Rib Roast, Bone In About 10-12 Pounds
- 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 5 whole Carrots, Chopped To About 2 Inches In Length
- 2 whole Onion, Medium Sized And Coarsley Diced
- 1- 1/2 Tablespoon Dried Rosemary
- 4 Tablespoons Fresh Ground Pepper
- 1- 1/2 Tablespoon Garlic, Granulated
- 1- 1/2 Tablespoon Minced Onion
- 3 Tablespoons Kosher Salt
- Rinse the roast and dry completely.
- Wrap in cheesecloth.
- Place on a rack on a sheet pan in the back of the fridge fat side up.
- After 24 hours replace the cheesecloth with a new piece of cheesecloth and place the roast back in the fridge for 9 to 11 days.
- I put it in the spare fridge and forget about it.
- When you take it out of the fridge after the 9 to 11 days, the roast will have a hard shell-almost like a beef jerky.
- You cut that part off.
- The cheese cloth alows the roast to breath enough without actually getting moldy.
- This step makes the meat super tender, like you dont need a knife to cut it tender.
- You want to cut off all the discolored parts.
- Rub the roast in the olive oil.
- Mix the spices together for the rub and rub it all over the roast.
- Let the roast reach room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
- Line a roasting pan with some carrots and onions.
- Place the roast on top of the vegetables and add some water to the bottom of the pan to line it.
- Now you can put the roast in the oven and cook it for an hour and then turn off the oven for 2 1/2 hours making sure to leave the oven door closed.
- Or you can put the roast in the 500 degree oven and immediately turn the heat down to 450 degrees and cook it for 40 minutes.
- After 40 minutes, turn the oven down to 275 degrees and cook for 2 hours.
- Ive done it both ways and each way makes a perfect medium-rare roast.
- If you prefer to have your roast more done, adjust cooking time accordingly.
- Let the roast rest for 15 minutes before you cut into it.
- Make sure to serve it with the carmelized carrots and onions.
