Ruth’s Chris–Style Roasted Garlic & Herb Prime Rib

This Ruth’s Chris–inspired prime rib brings the unmistakable luxury of a high-end steakhouse straight into your home kitchen. Richly marbled beef, roasted to perfection, delivers an ultra-tender texture and deep, beef-forward flavor that feels celebratory and indulgent.

The secret lies in simplicity and technique. A bold garlic-and-herb butter infuses the roast as it cooks, while the high-heat start creates a beautifully browned crust reminiscent of restaurant-quality prime rib. Lower, slower roasting afterward ensures the interior stays juicy and evenly cooked.

Fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, and parsley add aromatic depth without overpowering the natural flavor of the beef. Each slice is buttery, savory, and satisfying, making this dish ideal for holidays, dinner parties, or any occasion that calls for something truly special.
