Texas Roadhouse Prime Rib Recipe
This copycat Texas Roadhouse Prime Rib recipe features a 3-day marinade with liquid smoke and garlic for maximum flavor. Slow-roasted to juicy perfection with a crispy crust – just like the steakhouse!
Ingredients
For the Prime Rib:
- 1 bone-in prime rib roast 7 lbs
For the Marinade:
- ½ cup kosher salt
- 2 tbsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- ¼ cup liquid smoke
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup minced garlic
Instructions
Day 1: Whisk marinade ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Day 2: Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Coat with marinade on all sides. Refrigerate uncovered for 24 hours.
Day 3:
- Let roast sit at room temperature for 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Sear roast for 30 minutes.
- Reduce heat to 250°F (121°C) and cook for 2–2.5 hours (until internal temp reaches 130°F for medium-rare).
- Rest for 1 hour before slicing.
Notes
- For extra smokiness: Add 1 tsp smoked paprika to the marinade.
- Don’t skip resting! This keeps the juices locked in.
- Leftovers? Make prime rib sandwiches or beef fried rice.
