Directions
Buffalo Prime Rib Roast
Mix all dry spices together. Add espresso and oil, creating a paste.
Rub seasoning paste into roast. Cover and leave at room temperature for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 450° and insert meat thermometer in center of roast, avoiding the bone.
Place celery and onion on bottom of heavy roasting pan. Place roast bone-side up on top of vegetable bed.
Roast for 15 minutes.
Add ½ cup stock to the bottom of pan and reduce oven temperature to 350°.
Continue roasting, calculating 10 minutes per pound (approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes for an 8-pound roast or until the internal meat thermometer reaches 110°. Rely on your internal meat thermometer.). Add remaining stock to pan as needed throughout roasting.
Shut oven off and leave roast in oven for 30 minutes or until internal meat thermometer reaches 125°.
Transfer meat to a large platter and tent with foil to keep heat in. Meat thermometer should read 135° for medium-rare.
Place roasting pan on stovetop over medium-high heat, scraping the bottom to loosen vegetables. Add any remaining stock and the sherry and bring to a simmer.
Slice roast into desired thickness and add juices from roast to au jus.
Season au jus to taste with salt, pepper, and red wine. Strain.
Serve roast with au jus and pass with horseradish cream sauce.
Cranberry Port Sauce
In saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter.
Add onion, garlic, and seasonings. Sauté for 7 minutes.
De-glaze pan with port.
Add cranberry sauce and stir to incorporate.
Bring to a simmer. Taste to adjust seasonings. If sauce becomes too thick, add additional port as needed. Drizzle over sliced buffalo roast.

Great recipe ! Followed it exactly and i was very glad it did. The meat was perfectly cooked , well- done yet juice. The flavor was great, all the aromatics worked perfectly with buffalo.
Thank you,

Hi Linda – This will work for a boneless or for a bone-in. Thank you for catching that error in the recipe – I have adjusted. And… thank you for your support and sustainable great taste!
Hi Jill,
What are your thoughts about how much to adjust the time for a boneless roast? I’m assuming less time per pound. Thanks.
