A method that employs math but ignores actually measuring the temperature of the roast? If you're buying an expensive roast, getting a $5 thermometer is going to be a non-issue.

hello this is chef john from food wishes comm with an updated version of our famous prime rib method used to be called method X now it's called the food whish method and it produces prime ribs so perfectly pink and delicious using math alright but don't be scared it's easy math now for this easy math to work our prime rib must not be cold must be left out at room temperature for at least at least 6 hours all right longer is better if you put the primary been cold the math doesn't work also we want to make sure we're using a bone-in prime rib you see there all right I have two rib bones which by the way means this is enough for four people two people per bone alright so we have our rib it's room temperature next step we need a flavored butter which is really simple soft butter black pepper freshly ground of course and herb de Provence that is a really cool Mediterranean herb mix you can read about that on the blog it has rosemary thyme usual suspects it also has a little bit of lavender which very interesting ok we're going to mix that up and spread it over our room temperature prime rib and I will keep saying room temperature because it's so important by the way there's an old saying in the video recipe business if you spread butter on it they will watch so there you go alright so once that's covered with butter which by the way is only there well serve for flavor but it's mostly there to make this salt stick so we're going to take a whole bunch of kosher salt and we're going to sprinkle that over all the surface area especially on top this is a giant piece of meat so only a tiny fraction of this salt is actually going to end up on your plate but it is important I heard Iron Chef Michael Symon once say use twice as much as you think you need which is you know probably a pretty safe bet alright so our room temperature prime rib is buttered its seasoned and now we have to preheat the oven to 500 degrees and by the way on the blog you can read about which ovens will work and which won't yes electric to work gas of course but you have to have a good oven that has an accurate temperature gauge or this is not going to work all right on to the math in your calculator punch in the exact weight from the label of your prime rib mine was 5 pounds point three five multiply that by five minutes and you will get your cooking time at five hundred you're going to round up to the nearest minute which for me is twenty seven the prime rib goes in the middle of the oven and cooks it five hundred for exactly that many minutes so I'm going to count down from twenty seven minutes down to zero by the way I like to wait a minute before I set the timer to counteract the heat loss from putting the pan in the oven so again the weight of your prime rib times five it's going to cook that many minutes at 500 degrees and then when your timer rings turn off the oven do not open the door do not touch the door handle in fact don't even look at the oven just turn off the heat and set your timer for exactly two hours and what's going to happen that surface has been seared at 500 degrees and there's a lot of heat in that oven and it's going to slowly over the next two hours it's going to slowly cook through the rest of the meat to a perfect pink doneness it's in some kind of magical sweet spot between rare and medium rare where I personally think prime ribs should be eaten man that looks great I can't wait to dig in now one thing you don't have to worry about here is letting it rest its rested for two hours just slice it up and serve it will still be warm inside now to make things easier I like to cut the bones off the bottom before I slice if you want to serve it with the bone on go ahead but since I'm going to try to serve four people out of this I'm going to cut the bones off which is super simple just take a knife and go along where the bone meets the meat and that will come off quite easily just keep your knife right along the edge of the bone and you're good and of course do not discard those you can throw some barbecue sauce on those put them in the oven till fork tender and you can totally get your you know Fred Flintstone table now I told you this magical mathematical method produces the most gorgeous pink prime rib you'll ever see but who you gonna believe me or your eyes check it out oh my god is that just the most beautiful thing you've ever seen oh and by the way yes this is my piece so it's okay that I'm you know touching it so much but I can't help myself it feels so good the amount of moist you're left in this meat is stunning it is pink like medium-rare but the texture the moisture is closer to a rare it's just amazing and you can see there with a light from the window coming in how it's glistening now because this is just warm make sure you use heated plates all right you want warm plates you want to make sure your eyes you is very hot boiling hot you see that there in the ramekin I will demo that in another video very soon and there you go beautiful classic perfectly pink prime rib using the food whish method I hope you give that a try if you like your prime rib cooked like this this is the best method I hope you give it a try all the ingredients are on the site plus a ton more information so go check it out and as always enjoy you
