How to Make Prime Rib With Garlic Butter Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Pat the prime rib dry with paper towels. Season generously with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Place the roast, rib side down, in a large, shallow roasting pan.
  4. Roast for 15 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
  5. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (163°C).
  6. Continue roasting for 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers your desired doneness (130-135°F for medium-rare, 140-145°F for medium).
  7. Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest, loosely tented with foil, for at least 15 minutes before carving.
  8. While the roast rests, prepare the garlic butter sauce:
  9. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  10. Add 4 cloves of minced garlic and cook for 2-4 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  11. Add 1/2 cup beef broth and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce.
  12. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.
  13. Remove from heat and slowly whisk in 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) of cold, unsalted butter, one tablespoon at a time, until the sauce is emulsified and smooth.
  14. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh chives.
  15. Serve the garlic butter sauce immediately with the carved prime rib.
