Reverse Sear Instant Pot Prime Rib Roast Recipes

REVERSE-SEARED INSTANT POT PRIME RIB AND GRAVY

Steps:

• Make 4 evenly spaced small slits about 1/2 inch deep on the top of the roast with a small paring knife. Put a few rosemary leaves on top of each slit and push them in using a piece of garlic. Repeat on the other side of the roast. Make two slits on the ends of the roast and stuff with the remaining rosemary and garlic.
• Combine 5 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl and stir to combine. Sprinkle all over the roast, firmly pressing the mixture onto the exterior and stuffing some into the slits.
• Place the trivet in the bottom of the insert of a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Pour in the beef broth and 1/4 cup of the wine. Place the roast on the trivet, fat-side up, then set it to pressure cook on low for 10 minutes with the keep warm feature turned on (see Cook's Note). Once the pressure cook cycle ends let the pot stand, closed, for 45 minutes. Open the lid and transfer the roast to a plate. Remove the trivet and pour the broth into a heatproof container. Rinse the insert and return it to the machine.
• Set the machine to sauté and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and foamy add the roast and sear until dark brown on all sides and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 120 degrees F for medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, immediately add the remaining 1/4 cup wine to the insert, scraping up the browned bits that are stuck to the bottom. Continue to cook until almost all the wine has evaporated then sprinkle in the flour. Stir until a uniform paste forms then whisk in the reserved broth. Bring to a boil and simmer until the flavor of the flour has cooked out, about 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, if needed, and whisk in a bit more beef broth if the gravy becomes too thick. Strain through a mesh strainer into a gravy boat and stir in the herbs right before serving. Serve alongside the roast.

REVERSE-SEAR PRIME RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Season roast generously with kosher salt. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Remove roast from refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature, about 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Mix butter, rosemary, thyme, and black pepper together in a small bowl; spread butter mixture over roast. Place roast in a large roasting pan.
• Bake roast in the preheated oven until internal temperature reaches 115 degrees F (46 degrees C) for medium-rare, about 3 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and tent with aluminum foil; allow to rest, about 20 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Uncover roast.
• Return roast to the oven and bake until well-browned, 6 to 10 minutes. Slice and serve.

REVERSE SEAR INSTANT POT PRIME RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Score the fat cap of a 3-pound boneless beef rib roast by cutting in a cross-hatch pattern.
• Generously season the roast on all sides with sea salt and ground black pepper. Give it a good coating, even if it seems like too much salt.
• Place the trivet in the Instant Pot, then place the roast on top of the trivet. Add 1 cup unsalted beef stock and ½ cup red wine. Optionally, add a few sprigs of fresh herbs.
• Lock the lid in place and make sure the vent is in the "sealing" position. Choose the manual setting, low pressure, and set the time for 5 minutes.Once the time is done, do not remove the lid or release the pressure. Leave the roast in the pot for 30 more minutes. The Instant Pot will automatically switch to the "keep warm" setting.
• Once 30 minutes is up, open the pot and insert a meat thermometer at the thickest part of the rib. Be careful when removing the lid. The meat thermometer should read 115°F. If it is too low, put the lid back on and leave it on warm for 5 to 10 more minutes.
• Remove the roast to a plate and strain the liquids from the pot into a cup. Set aside.
• Remove the trivet from the pot. Select the highest saute setting. Add 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and place the prime rib roast back into the pot. Sear on all sides until it browns, approximately 10-15 minutes.
• Check the temperature of the roast again to make sure it's cooked to your desired degree of doneness. For medium-rare, it should read 135°F. Tent with foil and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving.
• To make the gravy, add the strained liquids back to the pot along with 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Stir.
