Directions

    1. 1Preheat oven to 500°F. Remove the roast from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
    2. 2Cut the rib loin in half (roast halves separately for more controlled/even cooking.)
    3. 3Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet over very high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and sear both halves until they’re a nice dark golden color. Place the tricolor peppercorns into a bag; use a rolling pin to crush the peppercorns. Strip the leaves from the rosemary and thyme springs. Mix the salt, crushed peppercorns, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves, and garlic.
    4. 4Pour the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil over the rib loin and pour on the rub mix. Pat slightly to get it to stick to the meat. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, then reduce the heat to 300°F and roast until a meat thermometer registers 125°F for rare/medium rare, 30 to 50 minutes (the roast will continue to cook slightly after removing from the oven). If you’d like the meat more cooked, leave it in the oven longer. Just keep an eye on the meat thermometer and don’t let it cook past medium rare! *USING A MEAT THERMOMETER IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ENSURE YOU COOK THE MEAT TO YOUR LIKING*
    5. 5Remove from the oven and let rest at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Note: Use a meat thermometer! Cooking times may vary. Also, you can buy half this quantity of meat and just proceed with the preparation instructions. You’ll wind up with one prime rib instead of two.
