Allow the prime rib to come to room temperature for at least 1 hour before roasting.
Preheat the oven to 500°F.
Generously season the beef rib with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Roast the prime rib for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°F and continue roasting for about 20 minutes per pound.
While the prime rib cooks, combine the beef broth, red wine, and Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
Let the prime rib roast sauce simmer for about 10 minutes, or until it's nice and thick.
Once the bone-in roast is done, remove it from the oven.
Tent the roast beef with foil and let it rest for 40 minutes before slicing and serving with the sauce. Enjoy your prime rib with au jus!

For medium-rare prime rib, cook until the internal temperature reaches 135°F. For rare, cook to 120°F; for medium, to 140°F; and for medium-well, to 150°F.
Feel free to use all those prime rib drippings. Those rich pan juices and browned bits add so much flavor to the homemade sauce!
You can store your leftover prime rib with au jus in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To serve, cover with foil and reheat in the oven at 275°F until warm.
