Easter 2024: Please a crowd on Sunday with easy, flavorful prime rib roast

This easy prime rib roast may become a hit with your family and friends. Try the recipe for Easter Sunday, or consider making it for another dinner gathering.

Easter is Sunday, March 31, and there’s still time to whip up an entrée that wows.

"Prime rib roast is my go-to for Easter dinner — it's always a hit and simpler to make than you'd expect," Lauren Allen, Arizona-based founder of the food blog TastesBetterFromScratch.com, told Fox News Digital.

"I prefer bone-in for extra flavor and even cooking, but boneless works great, too," she said.

Allen suggests that when opting for bone-in, ask the butcher to separate and tie the bone to the roast as "this not only enhances the flavor but also creates a convenient rack for roasting."

As Allen further notes, don't worry about removing the bones later; they add to the roast's presentation but can be easily taken out before carving. 

"For boneless, just use a roasting rack," she said.

Not sure how much prime rib to purchase? 

Allen shares that the rule of thumb for buying prime rib is to buy one pound per person.
