How to Get Perfect Medium-Rare Prime Rib with "Method X"

To make a very quick natural sauce; pour off the excess fat, and place the roasting pan over high heat. Add a few cups of water or beef broth and bring to a boil while scraping all the caramelized beef drippings from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or whisk.

Let this boil and reduce slightly while you slice the meat. Pour into a serving bowl, season with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, and serve along side the prime rib.
