Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 pounds prime rib roast, bone-in or boneless
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons ground star anise
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the spice rub: Mix kosher salt, black pepper, garlic, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, and brown sugar in a small bowl.
  2. Season the roast: Rub the spice mixture all over the prime rib roast and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place the roasting pan in the middle rack.
  4. Sear the roast: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Roast: Transfer the seared roast to the preheated roasting pan. Roast at 450°F (230°C) for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 325°F (160°C).
  6. Baste: Mix beef broth with fish sauce (if using) and brush over the roast every 30 minutes. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 120°F (49°C) for rare or 135°F (57°C) for medium, about 2-2.5 hours.
  7. Rest: Remove the roast from the oven, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  8. Prepare the jus: Pour drippings from the roasting pan into a saucepan, add beef broth, and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain and serve alongside the roast.

Notes

Allow the roast to rest for 20 minutes before slicing to ensure juices redistribute. Use a meat thermometer for precise doneness. Substitute soy sauce for fish sauce if preferred.
