Gordon Ramsay Prime Rib Roast
Print Recipe

Gordon Ramsay’s Prime Rib Roast is a bone-in ribeye roast seasoned with garlic, rosemary, thyme, mustard, and olive oil. It’s seared for a golden crust, then roasted slowly to maintain its juicy interior. The result is a tender, flavorful beef roast that’s served with its own pan juices or a rich red wine jus.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 (4–6 lb) prime rib roast, bone-in or boneless

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 3 tbsp Dijon mustard

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped

  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 2 tbsp butter, for basting

  • Optional: ½ cup red wine or beef stock for deglazing and serving

Instructions

Prepare the Herb Crust:

  1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.

  2. Rub the mixture all over the prime rib, coating it generously. Let it rest at room temperature for 1 hour before roasting.

Sear the Roast (Optional but Recommended):

  1. Preheat a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat.

  2. Sear the roast on all sides until browned, about 2–3 minutes per side.

Roast the Prime Rib:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. Place the roast bone-side down in the pan or on a rack inside a roasting pan.

  3. Roast for 20 minutes at high heat to develop the crust.

  4. Reduce temperature to 325°F (160°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches:

    • 120°F (49°C) for rare

    • 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare

    • 135°F (57°C) for medium

  5. Baste with butter during the final 15 minutes of roasting.

Rest and Carve:

  1. Remove roast from oven and let it rest for 20–30 minutes, loosely covered.

  2. Slice between the bones and serve with juices or your favorite sauce.
