Ingredients:
- 1 whole prime rib roast (4 to 6 lbs)
- 4 tbsp kosher salt

- Beef drippings from the roast
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp cornstarch (if thicker jus is desired)
Instructions

- Dry the roast; let the roast sit out for 1 hour (this enables the roast to come toward room temperature, which means a better searing process).
- In a bowl mix all the dry spices up.

- Use all the dry rub to coat the roast evenly, rubbing it in to create a crust.
Chill (This Is Optional If You Want A Stronger Flavor):
- Cover seasoned roast with plastic wrap and sit in the refrigerator overnight so flavors can fully soak in.
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Roast
- Place the roast, fat side facing up, on a roasting rack, in a shallow pan.
- At 15 minutes, turn oven down to 325°F (163°C) to roast farther at 450F.
Cook 15–20 minutes per pound, or until:
- Rare: 120–125°F internal temp
- Medium-rare: 130–135°F
- Medium: 140–145°F
