Hello, this is Chef John from Foodwishes.com with pepper parm prime rib.

00:06

That's right, I'm going to show you a super savory way to flavor this special cut of meat, plus, and probably more

00:14

importantly, I'm going to give you a bunch of tips and tricks to make sure your prime rib is perfect, no matter how you flavor it.

00:20

So if you've had issues in the past, pay attention, since this is

00:24

way easier than you think. And to get started, we're going to, of course, need a prime rib, and this one's about five pounds.

00:31

And please note, the bones are attached, which is my preference. So that's the

00:36

first tip. Get a prime rib with the bone in.

00:38

And then the second tip is, make sure your butcher trims off the fat cap, which is usually a couple inches thick across the top and

00:44

where the bones meet that main muscle.

00:46

All right, I don't mind paying twenty dollars a pound for meat,

00:49

but we don't want to be paying twenty dollars a pound for fat we're not going to eat. And

00:59

So I'm actually going to take a nice sharp knife and

01:01

finish that cut the rest of the way to the other side, being careful to cut just through the membrane and not too much into the meat.

01:09

And then I'm actually going to repeat that cut every inch or inch and

01:13

a half all the way across the top.

01:14

And the reason we do this, especially that first cut where they only went halfway across, is because that membrane is super tough,

01:21

and it really contracts tightly when the meat cooks. And

01:24

if we had left that first one half cut.

01:26

Our prime rib could have baked up into a weird shape, which could have affected the crust, and our prime rib could actually have fallen over.
