Prep Time:5 minutes
Cook Time:20 minutes
Total Time:25 minutes
Course: Main course
Cuisine: French
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 rib of beef (1.6 kg)
  • salt and pepper
  • olive oil

Instructions

  • Take your beef out at least 1 hour before cooking.
  • Just before you start cooking, season your prime rib on both sides by rubbing it with olive oil, then with good quality salt and pepper.
  • In a hot skillet, grill your prime rib for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
    (You can also do this on the barbecue, but for 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side).
  • You can then let your meat rest until you are ready to finish cooking, if you wish.
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/460°F.
  • You must then place your prime rib upright in a baking dish so that the meat cooks evenly. To do this, I use skewers or wooden skewers to stabilize the rib.
  • Place your meat in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes for a large rib and according to your choice of cooking (rare or blue).
  • Let the meat rest for a few minutes after cooking and serve it with the side dish and sauce of your choice (I will make some suggestions later in the article).
