Equipment

  • Barrel Roaster

Ingredients

  • 4-5 pound Prime Rib Roast
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves fresh minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp dry Rosemary
  • 1 tbsp dry thyme

Instructions

  • Remove the roast from the packaging and let rest until it reaches room temperature.
  • Light your Barrel Roaster
  • Mix the oil, garlic and seasoning in a mixing bowl to form a loose paste.
  • Coat all sides of the roast with the paste.
  • Insert one hook into each end of the roast so that the hooks point in the same direction and have enough clearance to hang from the rods. You want the hooks adjusted so that the thick end roast is toward the Barrel roaster lid.
  • Hang the roasts from the rods in the Barrel roaster and cover with the lid.
  • Cook approximately 1½ – 2 hours, depending on size, then use a meat thermometer to start checking the internal temperature in the center of the thickest part of each roast.
  •  cook until the internal temperature reaches the appropriate internal temperature for your desired doneness (125º for medium-rare). 
  • Remove the roast from the Barrel roaster, and the hooks from the roast. Tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes.
  • Slice and serve with prepared Au Jus or horseradish
