Prime rib (or any beef roast)
Let meat stand at room temp for at least 1 hour
Preheat oven to 375*f. Rub meat well w/ salt, sprinkle w/ pepper
(My friend uses rock salt & says he sometimes has to chisel the salt off) I use course sea salt & pack it on top & sides. Place in shallow pan fat side up.
DO NOT COVER, DO NOT ADD WATER
Put roast in oven (make sure it's 375 w/ thermometer); cook for just 1 hour & turn off heat. DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR AT ANY TIME till ready to serve.
Regardless of how long meat has been in oven,- 30-40 minutes before serving, turn oven on again & reset to 375*.
I like med rare so I go about 32 -34 minutes. NOW you can open the door & remove. Pick or slice off the extra salt & when you carve, it will be med or med rare all the way thru & crisp on outside.
I've done this many times & usually turn oven off (after 1 hour) 1-2 hours before serving time. Just turn it back to 375 for about 33 minutes.
And remember, don't open the door! And no, the salt does not absorb the juice.
