Girl, let me tell you about this mouth-watering Garlic Butter Herb Crusted Prime Rib that’ll have your family thinking you secretly enrolled in culinary school! This isn’t your average Sunday dinner – this is the show-stopping meal that’ll have everyone begging for seconds (and the recipe, of course!).
Let me spill the tea on how to make this fantastic dish that’s honestly easier than trying to explain to your mom how to use FaceTime. Trust me, I’ve been perfecting this recipe for years, and it’s absolutely foolproof!
Ingredients (because we need to get organized, honey):
– 5-pound prime rib roast
– 8 cloves of garlic (yes, that much – we’re not afraid of flavor here!)
– 1/2 cup softened butter
– 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
– 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Salt and pepper (be generous, we’re not counting calories today)
Okay, listen up because this is where the magic happens! First, let that prime rib come to room temperature for about 2 hours – patience is a virtue, darling! Meanwhile, mix your softened butter with minced garlic, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper until it’s looking like a fancy compound butter.

Now, here’s the fun part: Rub that beautiful piece of meat with olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper. Then, slather that garlic-herb butter all over it like you’re giving it a spa treatment. Don’t be shy – get in there!
Preheat your oven to 450°F and pop that baby in for 15 minutes to get a gorgeous crust. Then (this is crucial), lower the temperature to 325°F and cook for about 15 minutes per pound for medium-rare. Use a meat thermometer – we’re not playing guessing games with this expensive cut!
The hardest part? Letting it rest for 15-20 minutes after cooking. I know it’s torture, but trust your girl on this one! This is the perfect time to pour yourself a glass of wine and take some Instagram-worthy photos.
When you slice into this beauty, you’ll see the most perfect pink center surrounded by that heavenly garlic-herb crust. Pair it with roasted potatoes and some green veggies (to make it healthy-ish), and you’ve got yourself a dinner that’ll have everyone thinking you’re a culinary queen!
