To ring in the New Year, we invite friends for dinner. A menu featuring tender prime rib is festive, yet simple to prepare. A pepper rub and mild horseradish sauce complement the beef's great flavor. —Paula Zsiray, Logan, Utah

Prime Rib with Horseradish Sauce Recipe

Prep: 5 min. Bake: 3 hours

Yield: 6-8 Servings

5 180 185

Ingredients

1 bone-in beef rib roast (4 to 6 pounds)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 to 2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
HORSERADISH SAUCE:
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
3 to 4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Directions

Brush roast with oil; rub with pepper. Place roast, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 450° for 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to 325°. Bake for 2-3/4 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°), basting with pan drippings every 30 minutes.
Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients. Serve with beef. Yield: 6-8 servings.

It was good but quite dry for my taste.

Hubbies favorite. Have made several times. A sure fire winner!

Good recipe except for being cooked to long. I cook mine to rare which should read 125 degrees on the meat thermometer. It will continue to cook when you pull it out of the oven and sit it to rest reaching 130 finally. The ends of the roast will be Med to Med-rare with the center being rare. This allows for a serving of just about everyone to their satisfaction.

Great recipe! Will pass on to friends and family. Cooking instructions couldn't of been more precise. Did add garlic, rosemary and thyme along with the pepper. Thank you TOH!

I forgot to add that I cut an X inbetween the strings and push 1/2 garlic clove in each hole. I still rub it all down with salt, pepper, garlic salt and bacon grease.

Great recipe. I use bacon grease instead of olive oil. I cook it at 350 @ 30 mins per pound so I can get Med rare slices in the middle.

This is the best Prime Rib recipe I have ever used. It turns out perfect! Didn't change it at all. I have never had so many compliments.

I have been making this for Christmas Eve dinner for several years now. My family loves it and it has become a tradition. And I always come back to this recipe. The horseradish sauce is perfect! Enjoy!
