Garlic Herb Prime Rib Roast is the perfect Christmas lunch or dinner, full of flavour and ready in under one hour!
Buttery Garlic Herb Prime Rib Roast ready in under one hour? Yes. I know, it’s possible I’ve broken a few traditional rib roast cardinal rules cooking it in under one hour. However, this is how we have always cooked our roast, and it’s well worth it, with hardly any effort whatsoever.

As long as the end result is a juicy piece of meat, tender and falling apart in your mouth, that’s all that really matters. Right?
Your family, friends or guests in general are going to fall in love with this beautiful piece of meat! Especially when a buttery, garlicky herb mixture cooks onto and into this meat, which creates a crispy golden crust on the outside, while the inside stays tender and juicy.
Garlic Herb Prime Rib Roast
- Prime rib may be an expensive cut, but it is well worth the price when feeding your guests around a dinner table. It’s a naturally tender and juicy cut of meat that melts in your mouth! You won’t be disappointed with.
- Why do we place the roast in a cast iron skillet or roasting pan bone-side down? The bones create a natural roasting rack for the meat.
- Pour the garlic herb butter mixture over the meat, rubbing it into the flesh to coat it well and evenly. You CAN use any herb you like, although the ones listed in this recipe have been tried over and over with us and we LOVE this combo! When I first posted this recipe, I used Italian dried herbs, but there is NOTHING like fresh herbs to season and flavour your meat. I suggest using fresh herbs where possible for this recipe.
The only thing this beautiful piece of meat requires is to be roasted uncovered first for that char-grilled coated flavour, and then continue roasting, covered until your roast is cooked to your liking. As you can see, the only way we love ours is medium rare. However, you CAN continue roasting to get it to your own liking and preference.
