Traditional Garlic and Herb Crusted Prime Rib Roast

Ingredients

1 10 to 12-pound boneless prime rib roast, at room temperature
3 gloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh rosemary leaves, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh tarragon leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
Bay leaves

Preparation

1
2-3 hours before you want to begin cooking, take the roast out of the fridge and place it on a cutting board at room temperature.
2
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
3
To prepare roast, remove excess fat from the bottom of the roast, and then trim the layer of fat from the top side (leaving a little fat is fine).
4
In a bowl, mix the garlic and chopped herbs with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and mix until combined.
5
Evenly apply garlic herb rub on all sides of the roast.
6
Tie roast with string and insert a bay leaf underneath each string across the top.
7
Roast until the internal temperature reaches 120 degrees F for medium-rare, about 2 1/2 hours. If you prefer medium, take the roast out when the thermometer reads 130 degrees F.
8
Let roast rest for 10 minutes before carving.
