Prime Rib Rub

Ingredients
  

  • 4 tbsp coarse kosher salt
  • 1 tsp dry rosemary, minced finely
  • 2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1 tbsp granulated garlic
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp brown sugar (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • Blend all of the ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Taste and adjust the salt level as needed for personal preferences
  • To use on the Prime Rib, first bring the meat to room temperature. Pat the surface dry with paper towels to reduce excess moisture, then sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the mixture over the surface. Use one hand to rub the spices in, adding more as desired with the other hand until the entire roast is covered evenly

Notes

The brown sugar is easily swapped for half as much granulated sugar if that’s what you have on hand, or omitted entirely. It does help balance the flavor of the rub and encourages browning on the outside of the Prime Rib
