## **How to Make Rosemary Prime Dijon Rib**

### 1. **Prepare the Herb Rub**

In a small bowl, combine chopped rosemary, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. This aromatic mixture will form a flavorful crust.

### 2. **Season the Prime Rib**

Pat the prime rib dry with paper towels. Generously season with salt and pepper on all sides. Then, spread the rosemary-Dijon mixture evenly over the roast, pressing it in gently.

### 3. **Roast to Perfection**

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the rib on a roasting rack in a pan and roast for 15 minutes to develop a crust. Then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches your preferred doneness (125°F for medium-rare, about 1.5-2 hours).

### 4. **Rest Before Serving**

Remove the roast from the oven and tent with foil. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes to allow juices to redistribute, ensuring every slice is juicy and tender.

## **Serving Suggestions**

* Serve thick slices alongside creamy mashed potatoes and garlic-roasted green beans.
* Pair with a rich red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot to complement the beef’s flavors.
* Add a horseradish cream sauce or au jus for an extra layer of indulgence.
