Equipment

  • Toaster Oven

Ingredients

  • 5 lbs Bone-In Prime Rib

Rub

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter room temperature and softened
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 garlic head minced
  • 1 fresh thyme sprig leaves only
  • 1 fresh rosemary sprig leaves only & chopped

Gravy

  • drippings
  • 1 ½ cup no salt beef broth
  • ½ cup red wine decent to good quality
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour

Instructions

Roast

  • The Prime Rib smokes during intial phase of roasting. I highly recommend using this device outdoors or in an area that would be appropriate for grilling when following this recipe.
  • Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours before roasting.
  • Press the roast button. Preheat to 450°F (232°C) and set the time to 15 minutes.
  • In a bowl: combine all the rub ingredients together. Mix well. Set aside.
  • Pat the prime rib dry using a paper towel.
  • Rub the seasonings on the top and sides of the prime rib.
  • Place the baking sheet (cooking pan) in the toaster ovens lowest position (to catch the dripppings). Add ½ cup water to the baking sheet.
  • Place the prime rib on the oven rack. Transfer the rack to the toaster oven in the position directly above the drip pan.
  • Set the cook time to 20 minutes for rare, 30 minutes for medium rare, 40 minutes for medium. Add additional ~6 minutes pre-pound if larger than 5 lbs.
  • Once desired degree of doneness achived turn off toaster oven (if not using timer).
  • Let the prime rib sit in the toaster oven for 1 ½ hours. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR!
  • Note: The art of this dish comes from patience and participation. Keep a close eye and be ready with the temp gauge when time to open the door.
    For reference: rare (internal temp. 120°-125°F), medium rare (internal temp.130°-135°F), medium (internal temp. 140°-145°F).
  • Open the door and confirm the anticipated Internal temperature using a meat thermometer.
  • Remove the prime rib, place in a safe location (preferably indoors), and let it rest (uncovered) for an additional 20 minutes prior to carving.

Gravy

  • Remove the baking sheet (with drippings) from the toaster oven and place on top of a burner. Heat to medium.
  • Add flour and whisk until no there are no lumps. Slowly pour in the beef broth and wine; continue to whisk. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Whisk for ~3 minutes or until optimal consistency.
  • Strain the gravy using a fine wire mesh. With a whisk or wooden spoon gently work/press the gravy through the mesh.

Slice the prime rib to the desired thickness.

    Serve with gravy and Enjoy!

      Notes

      In the event the internal temperature is lower than expected and you are not satisfied with the level of doneness: It is recommended you reheat for 2 minutes (depending on the oven) at no greater than 325 degrees per pound and repeat the subsequent steps.
