I have used a similar recipe for years- we call it never fail roast beef- cause you can't go wrong. It needs to be made clear that "standing prime rib" means BONE IN!!! I sometimes buy a boneless rib roast-when on sale and then buy the bones seperatley and have the butcher tie them on! It also makes it much easier to carve. The bones hold the heat when you turn the oven off and they continue to cook the roast. This is the reason people in previous negative reviews had undercooked meat.
