Prime Rib Roast

I love a good Prime Rib Roast. As many of my friends know, I like to keep it easy, so with this recipe you will find the ingredients to be extremely minimal. I don’t care much for beef when it has too many seasonings, but that’s just my personal preference. I only buy prime rib roast for special occasions because it is on the more expensive side. I also only make this roast medium rare. I don’t care for well done prime rib, and I find it to be on the tougher side. I will post more prime rib recipes in the future, so stay tuned!

    Girl, you need your own cooking show, I’ve tried many different receipies from different cooks but your’s is my absolute favorite, it’s simple yet the receipes always seem to turn out perfect. By the way I’m a bachalor and todays young women just don’t know how to cook like mom/Grandma so I’ve had to learn myself or either starve and I chose to learn. Every receipe I’ve tried from you has turned out perfect both taste and appearance. God Bless (your husband is a lucky Man)>Tony
