How to Make the Prime Rib Roast
Get ready to make your roast by preheating the oven to 420 degrees F. While waiting for the oven to get hot, rinse your rib and dry it with paper towels. Set the roast into a baking dish and begin seasoning it with your salt and pepper. Grab your butter and rub it on all sides of the roast. Once you add the salt, pepper, and butter, begin rubbing the garlic, olive oil, and thyme on it. Be sure to place some thyme underneath the roast.
Put your baking dish in the oven and allow your roast to cook for 35 minutes before taking it out of the oven. After pulling it out of the oven, add your mushrooms, olive oil, and Worcestershire sauce to the meat juice.
Stir the ingredients and push them around on the edges of your roast. Place the meat back into the baking dish and put it back in your oven to cook for an additional 35 minutes. You can serve it right away with mashed potatoes or other tasty side dishes.
What to Serve With a Prime Rib Roast

How to Store Prime Rib
If you are unable to finish your Prime Rib Roast, save your leftovers and reheat them when you get hungry. You should wrap the roast in plastic wrap, seal it shut, and put it in the refrigerator.

Of course, you may end up eating it before that because it tastes that good!
Can You Freeze the Prime Rib?
You can store your Prime Rib Roast in the freezer. Wrap it in plastic wrap, tape it shut, and then cover it with a sheet of aluminum foil for added protection. Place the roast in the freezer to keep it fresh. It will stay good when frozen for up to six months.
Helpful Tips You Should Know When Preparing the Roast
