Kosher Salt Crusted Prime Rib

We made this for Xmas day and it was crazy good.

Here's the recipe, which i modded from the Gourmet Cookbook, followed by some pics of the steps:

3 cups kosher salt

1/4 cup rock salt (optional)

3/4 cup water

6lb prime rib roast

Instant read thermometer

Preheat over to 325ºF.

Mix kosher salt and water together to form a paste.

Coat roast with salt mixture.

Sprinkle roasting pan with rock or kosher salt to form a bed.

Place roast in pan fat side up.

Roast until instant read thermometer reads 125-130ºF for medium-rare, it took this one right around 2 hours.

Remove from oven and let stand for 15-20 minutes.

Remove salt shell, slice, and serve.

The Cut.

Salted.

Sliced and Ready.
