Spread the flavored butter mixture over the room temperature prime rib.

Sprinkle kosher salt generously over the surface of the prime rib, especially on top.

Preheat the oven to 500°F.

Calculate the cooking time by multiplying the weight of the prime rib (5 lb.35) by 5 minutes, which equals 27 minutes.

Place the prime rib in the middle of the oven and cook for 27 minutes at 500°F.

After 27 minutes, turn off the oven without opening the door and set a timer for 2 hours.

After 2 hours, remove the prime rib from the oven and slice it to serve.

Optional: Cut the bones off the prime rib before slicing for easier serving.
