Recipe(tried): Prime Rib

Thank you all for your nice comments. Here is the Prime Rib recipe. Please bear with to choppy instructions. This is one of those meals I just do without referring to a recipe. It is very simple and good. Serve with the garlic mashed potatoes I posted earlier. Enjoy!

Prime Rib

2 - 3 bulbs garlic (cloves peeled)
1- tsp. salt (I like kosher or fresh ground sea salt)
1 standing rib roast 6 - 7 lbs.
Bay leaves
Freshly ground pepper and salt
Montreal Steak Seasoning
Olive oil (extra virgin)
2 cups dry red wine

Preheat oven to 450. Puree' the garlic and 1 tsp. salt in food processor till smooth. Rub the roast with small amount of olive oil. Spread entire roast with garlic. Top with 6 - 8 bay leaves. Grind pepper to taste and cover entire roast. (I grind desired amount of pepper into custard cup and mix small amount of salt with it) Sprinkle Montreal Steak seasoning over top to taste. Place in pan on roasting rack. Pour wine in the bottom of the pan. Tip: line the inside of your pan with heavy duty foil; cleaning much easier in that liquid will just about evaporate.
Place in oven and roast for exactly 20 minutes. Reduce oven heat to 350 and roast 18 min. per pound for rare or 22 min. per pound for med. rare. Let Stand for at least 5 min. before carving.

We like our prime rib med. rare leaning toward rare but, if you would like yours more well done just increase your mins. per pound and check with instant read thermometer. Try not to open oven once your meat goes in. It will mess up your cooking time.
