One of the things that always seems to conjure up great memories is the sweet time we spent cooking with our family. Papa's Prime Rib holds some deliciously special memories for us, and we would like to share that with you. Papa always picked the best cut of prime rib roast that he could find, then he would prepare a butter-herb mixture to cover it in. He was patient and the end result was an easily sliced, fork-tender, mouthwatering, and satisfying piece of prime rib... every single time. Papa's Prime Rib is the perfect recipe to help start a new tradition of memories for you and your family today! Believe us when we say that it's worth every minute!
