This was the easiest thing I made for Christmas Eve dinner this year and it was thoroughly incedible. My father couldn't believe how good it was and even my picky mother enjoyed it. I saved the (few leftover pieces of the roast and picked up some chewey subrolls and an au jus packet on the 26th. Threw the fatty pieces into the au jus as heating along with fresh thyme, used the au jus to heat up the meat, and we got to enjoy it again as the best french dip sandwiches we'd ever had. Can't wait to find another roast! Thanks for this awesome recipe!!!

I come from a family of great cooks and I am always looking for recipes that will make the "grade". This recipe did not fail! My family was over for Christmas dinner and loved every bite! My dad, who has been the director of country clubs and owns 2 restaurants, said this was one of the best he has ever had. I did do a slight variation by seasoning the meat with salt and pepper the night before and wrapping it tightly in plastic wrap. This gave the meat even more flavor. I did use a meat thermometer and found that 135 is a little too long; I will take it out at 130 next time so I will have some nice pink slices. This is an overall winner and will satisfy even the pickiest beef eaters!

Bobby Flay is one of my favorite chefs on Food Network. For Christmas dinner I attempted to make his prime rib for 16 people. I followed his instructions to a "T", and I must say the results were spectacular. Everyone raved about how the roast was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was out of the world. It was so simple. I served it along with yorkshire pudding and believe me there was no leftovers. Thanks Bobby from me and my family.

This recipe was super easy to prepare, but very elegant. I made this for Christmas dinner and it managed to impress all my guest--even my mother-in-law.

I made and served this for a formal Christmas Eve dinner. It was so simple to make. The level of "doneness" was varied for everyone, more well done on the ends and working it's way to more ware in the middle of the roast. Seriously, my family gave me a round of applause at the end of the meal and showered me with compliments on how delicious it was. It was well worth the price of the prime rib. I will serve this again! Thanks Bobby!

First time for me and a prime rib roast. I found a pretty small one, under 4lbs that wouldn't overwhelm two people. Followed the directions to a tee and rubbed in a pre bought seasoning mix for roasts in addition to the garlic slices. I made sure that I calibrated my thermometer first with boiling water! Then kept watch very close. Made the au jus but was unsure how long to boil down the wine. One note about the wine. Someone mentioned that it didn't taste very good or something like that. Make sure you use a wine for cooking that you would not mind drinking from the glass. For the money you cannot beat the 2 buck Chuck at TraderJoes for this purpose; $1.99 a bottle. Au Jus was great and we really enjoyed the roast. Thanks Bobby Flay for such an easy and tasty recipe.

Easy recipe. Tried it on Christmas for the first time and did not go well. I cooked it to 135 degrees and took it out and let it set (and continue cooking. When I carved it, it was completely rare. I had to put all the slices under the broiler while the rest of the food sat on the table and got cold. I was not happy. Luckily the guests said everything tasted great and didn't notice the trouble I was having. Still-- be careful about undercooking. I was so nervous about overcooking that I took it out immediately when it hit 135.
