How did your prime rib turn out?

[Rafikifan]

There were those who mentioned cooking prime rib at Christmas. I've tried many different ways and I still am unsure about what is the best way. Sometimes I think it mostly depends on whether you're lucky enough to get a good cut and decently aged piece of beef. How did y'alls turn out?

Absolutely amazingly well.

I rubbed it with virgin olive oil, garlic, garlic salt, salt, a little bit of beef boulion, pepper, rosemary, and red wine.

It was so good!!!!!

I had a beautiful cut with just enough fat.

Rub mine with kosher salt and let age in my frig for two days then cooked at 425 degrees for 1 1/4 hour. It was delish. The weight of the roast was alittle over 4 lbs. and we like it med-rare.

my first year making it and it was amazing - just rubbed kosher salt, pepper and garlic powder, baked at 325 for 25 minutes each pound (205 minutes for 5 lbs) and it was moist, tender and yummy! also made a great mustard/horseradish sauce for it - 1 and 1/2 cups mayo, 1/3 cup sour cream, 2 TBSP horseradish, 3 TBSP Grey Poupon, 1 TBSP whole grain mustard - also yummy!

I get one of those "Au Jus" gravy packets and rub some of it on the meat before cooking. Then I make the rest of the packet into the au jus gravy. Yum!

You are making me hungry! Medium rare is really the only way to get the most out of prime rib IMO. It kills me when people toughen and take the flavor out of a roast by cooking it medium well or well.
