Man, that house of prime rib looks amazing. I have to go some time.

Last year, my dad and kid brother had a joint bday party and invited over the extended family. I made a roast (it's not prime rib if it's not on the bone right?). I was most impressed with how it turned out. Better than most restaurants I've had it at. For any of you guys that have made prime rib at home, what spices do you use?

I made a simple paste with thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper and butter. But I think maybe I should have put in some onion powder as well. Do you guys sear it off first before roasting or just pop it in at room temp?
