- 2 tablespoons of fresh thyme, chopped
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2 teaspoons of salt

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

- Slice and serve the garlic and herb crusted prime rib as the centerpiece of your special occasion meal.
The history of Perfect Prime Rib with a garlic and herb crust dates back to the traditional English roast beef, which was often prepared with a simple seasoning of salt and pepper. Over time, chefs and home cooks began experimenting with different flavor profiles, leading to the addition of garlic and herbs to create a more robust and aromatic crust for the prime rib. In modern times, this dish has become a staple in upscale steakhouses and fine dining establishments, with renowned chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Thomas Keller putting their own spin on the classic recipe. The best version of this dish can be found in high-end steakhouses known for their expertise in preparing prime rib to perfection. The key to achieving the perfect garlic and herb crust lies in the quality of the ingredients and the cooking technique. Using fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and parsley, along with finely minced garlic, can elevate the flavor profile of the crust. Additionally, allowing the prime rib to come to room temperature before cooking and using a precise roasting method are crucial for achieving a tender and juicy result. For those looking to explore alternative methods, some chefs recommend searing the prime rib before applying the garlic and herb crust to lock in the juices and create a flavorful caramelization on the exterior. Whether enjoyed at a top-tier steakhouse or prepared at home with care and attention to detail, Perfect Prime Rib with a garlic and herb crust is a timeless dish that continues to delight food enthusiasts around the world.
