Herb Roasted Prime Rib

with Truffle Cheese Popovers

Serves 6

• 1 4-6 pound prime rib roast, trimmed to “roast ready” by your butcher
• 2 cups Herb-Dijon Marinade (see recipe)
• 4 tablespoons parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
• 1 cup olive oil
• Sea salt
• Fresh cracked black pepper
• 1 recipe Truffle Cheese Popovers
• 1 recipe Beef Broth (follow Beef Jus instructions in Chef's Note)

1. Coat the prime rib roast with the Herb-Dijon Marinade and let marinate for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator, preferably overnight. Remove the roast from refrigerator two hours before placing in the oven.
2. Mix the parsley, rosemary, sage and olive oil together.
3. Preheat oven to 300°F. Thoroughly rub entire surface of the roast with sea salt and black pepper. Place roast onto a steel rack and into a roasting pan in the oven. Cook the roast for 1½ hours. Check the internal temperature of the roast. Once roast reaches 90°F, baste the roast with herb-olive oil mixture every 15 minutes.
4. Continue to cook the roast until an internal temperature of 120°F is reached. Remove from the oven and let rest for 30 minutes. (at this point you can increase the oven temperature and start the popover recipe)
5. Once the roast has rested, slice and serve with Truffle Cheese Popovers and Beef Jus.
