Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon kosher salt, 1 tablespoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
  2. Step 2: Pat 5 lbs prime rib roast dry and rub all over with 2 tablespoons olive oil, then evenly coat with the spice mixture.
  3. Step 3: Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan and roast at 425°F for 20 minutes to develop a crust.
  4. Step 4: Reduce oven temperature to 325°F and roast for 1 hour 30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 130°F for medium rare.
  5. Step 5: Remove the roast and transfer to a plate; tent with foil and rest for 20 minutes.
  6. Step 6: Pour off excess fat from the roasting pan and place pan over medium heat. Add 1 cup dry red wine and 2 cups beef broth, scraping browned bits from the pan; simmer for 8 minutes until slightly thickened.
  7. Step 7: Strain the au jus and serve alongside thinly sliced prime rib.
