Special Precautions and Tips:

- Let the roast rest for at least 30 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
- If you don't have a roasting rack, you can use a wire mesh grid.
- Prime rib roast is a large cut of meat, so it's best to plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time to cook and rest the roast.
