General roasting: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place roast in oven and immediately turn temp down to 350 (this will seal in the juices). 15 - 20 min per pound for rare 20 - 25 min per pound for med 25 - 28 min per pound for well Meat still cooks after you take it out of the oven - so if it looks undercooked - it is not. Make a foil "tent" and place over meat after you have taken it out of the oven, let roast sit for 15 minutes to allow it to continue to cook and to allow juices to redistribute throughout.
Get a digital probe thermometer (the kind with the silicone coated wire that plugs into a external unit-- $20 at Target or any kitchen supply store) and use that. Cover the roast with aluminum foil and cook at 350F until the center of the roast reaches 150 degrees Remove roast, and let rest covered until the internal temp starts to decrease. Do NOT remove the probe yet, lest the whole gush juice like a whale. Carry-over should bring the temperature to 160F. Turn the oven up to 500F Remove probe from roast, and uncover. Stick back in oven for 10 more minutes at 500F to create a crust on it. Let rest covered for 10 minutes or so. Some people actually do the last step first, then cook it at 325F.

Part of the secret lies in the preparation. For large roasts like prime rib I will dry brine for 24-36 hours before cooking, allowing the roast to come to room temperature before cooking or grilling, and cooking at a low temperature. With my recipe on TipsforBBQ.com I season a 4-rib roast with 1/2 tsp per pound. You can also add subtle herbs or seasonings. The flavors will be pulled in as the salt is dissolved with the moisture extracted from the beef and then re-absorbed. This will happen slowly over 24-36 hours while wrapped in the fridge. 1-2 hours before cooking allow the prime rib roast to come to room temperature. You can also use this time to apply additional herbs, dry or wet rubs for great flavor. Insert an oven thermometer or a wireless digital thermometer in the center of the roast. Cook at 225-250°F for about 30 minutes per pound. This can be done in an oven, grill or smoker. Cook until the internal temperature is 10-15 degrees shy of your final desired temperature (Rare is 120-130, Med-Rare is 130-135, Medium is 135-140). To finish off the roast transfer to high heat to sear (directly over the fire, pan-sear or increase the oven temp to 500°F). This will only take a few minutes to sear the entire roast. Do this with the lid/door open as you only want to sear, not continue to cook. Once removed from heat the roast's carry-over temperature will continue to cook the roast for another 5-10 degrees.
