Salt Encrusted Prime Rib Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. Line a shallow roasting pan with heavy-duty foil. Place 3 cups salt on foil, spreading evenly to form a 1/2-in. layer. , Brush roast with Worcestershire sauce; sprinkle with pepper and garlic powder. Place roast on layer of salt, fat side up. In a small bowl, mix water and remaining salt (mixture should be just moist enough to pack). Beginning at the base of the roast, press salt mixture onto the sides and top of roast., Roast 15 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 325°. Roast 2 to 2-1/4 hours or until a thermometer reaches 130° for medium-rare; 145° for medium. (Temperature of roast will continue to rise about 15° upon standing.) Let stand 20 minutes., Remove and discard salt crust; brush away any remaining salt. Carve roast into slices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Rinse the roast and pat dry with paper towels. Mix the onion soup mix and pepper together in a small bowl. Rub the pepper mixture generously over all sides of the roast. Place the roast on a clean, dry baking sheet, and rest 30 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the rock salt, flour, rosemary together in a bowl. Gradually pour in the water and mix by hand (wear gloves if desired) to make a thick, sticky batter or paste. Add more water if necessary. Spread the salt batter into the bottom of a roasting pan to make a layer 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick., reserving 1 to 2 cups. Place the roast, bones facing down, in the middle of the batter in the pan. Pull the batter up and around the roast to completely cover the meat. Pat on extra batter if necessary. Insert meat thermometer into the roast with its gauge positioned to be visible from the front of the oven (or use a regular meat thermometer).
• Cook in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove, and use remaining salt batter to patch any holes or breaks in the coating.
• Meanwhile, prepare au jus according to package directions leaving out 1/4 cup water to boost flavor, and keep warm.
• Return roast to the oven, and cook until internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F (54 degrees C), or to desired doneness. Remove roast, and rest 20 to 30 minutes until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Chip off the crust and discard and then slice to serve. Serve garnished with horseradish and au jus.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Rinse the roast, pat it dry, and bring it to room temperature. Sprinkle with the Worcestershire sauce and seasoned pepper.
• In a bowl add the kosher salt, Italian dressing mix, and egg whites and stir to combine. Sprinkle water over the top of the salt mixture until it is well-moistened, but not wet.
• Place a 1/2-inch layer of the salt mixture in the middle of the roasting pan, slightly larger than the diameter of the roast. Place the roast, fat side up, on top of the salt. Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the roast. Carefully pack the remaining salt mixture onto the meat, covering it completely.
• Place the roast in the oven and reduce the temperature to 425 degrees F. Roast for 14 to 16 minutes per pound, or until the thermometer reads 5 degrees F less than desired temperature. Final temperature for rare will be 130 degrees F; 135 degrees F for medium rare; 140 degrees F for medium.
• Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
• For jus, in a small saucepan over medium heat, add the beef broth and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, add the soup mix, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Remove the salt crust from the roast by breaking it and peeling it away. (You will probably need a hammer to do this.) Slice the meat to desired thickness and transfer slices to a platter. Ladle a small amount of jus over the top of the meat; serve remainder of jus on the side.
• Cook's note: Have your butcher remove the ribs from the roast.

Steps:

• Pre-heat over to 210 degrees.
• Season all areas of roast with pepper and garlic powder.
• Combine 1/2 of the salt in a bowl with enough water to make a thick paste.
• Pour a layer of salt in the bottom of the pan and place the roast on top of it.
• Pack salt/water paste on top of and arround the roast, adding more water if neccessary to make it stick to the sides of the roast.
• Place a meat thermometer probe into the thickest part of the roast.
• Roast the meat until it reaches an internal temperature of 125-30 degrees (F).
• When roast reaches five degrees less than the desired temp remove the roast from oven and allow it to sit undisturbed in salt shell for 30 minutes.
• After rest period crack salt and discard. Transfer roast to a carving board.
• Prepare au jus seperately.

Steps:

• Let roast stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 500°F. Pat beef dry and season with salt and pepper to taste. Roast beef for 30 minutes. Reduce heat 300°F. Crush allspice and combine with black pepper, rosemary, oregano, thyme, coriander, salt, flour, mustard and butter to form a paste; spread on roast. Roast beef for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until meat reaches 135°F for medium rare. Rest 20 to 30 minutes before carving. Sauce: Combine cream, mustard, beef broth, pan drippings, shallots, rosemary, coriander and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, and simmer 2 minutes. Add Grand Marnier and continue cooking an additional 5 minutes to reduce liquid. Serve over beef. Recipe Note: lightly crush rosemary leaves, if desired.

Steps:

• Get out a large aluminum throw away roasting pan (the deeper the beater) and 4 or 6 aluminum "ribbed" drip pans to make side-boards for the roasting pan, nails and a hammer.
• Preheat oven to 550 degrees.
• Mix crushed garlic, horseradish and pepper.
• Run over entire roast.
• Remove you oven rack and place on a strong table and place roaster on the rack.
• Standing drip pans on their side, line the roaster with the drip pans and pour 2 inches of roack salt in the roaster to help secure the drip pans.
• Sprinkle the two inches of rocksalt with one glass of water and pat down firmly.
• Place prime rib, fatty side up, in the center of the roaster, on top of the rock salt.
• Pour remaining rock salt on the roast making sure that all of the roast has at least one inch of rock salt covering it (you may need to use a nail or staple to join the drip pans if they appear to leak the rock salt).
• Sprinkle more water and pat down until there are NO CRACKS!
• Place the roast rack on the lowest possible setting in your oven and cook 20 minutes per pound for rare (center will be rare-rare) or 21 minutes per pound medium rare (rare with a firm center).
• Remove the roast from the oven and take outside and place on concrete (wood cannot stand the heat!) and break open with a hammer.
• Remove the roast.
• Brush clinging salt from the roast with a vegetable brush.
• Juice will be extra red and the roast will be extremely juicy!
• The rock salt will not make the meat salty, only in some instances on the outer "crispy" areas.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 210 degrees F (100 degrees C).
• Cover the bottom of a roasting pan with a layer of kosher salt. Place the roast, bone side down, on the salt. Season the meat with the ground black pepper and seasoning salt, then cover completely with kosher salt.
• Roast in preheated oven for 4 to 5 hours, or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove from oven and let rest for 30 minutes. This sets the juices and makes the roast easier to carve. (Note: Be sure to remove all the salt from the roast before serving.)
