Air Fryer Prime Rib Roast
Standing Rib Roast / Prime Rib Roast / Roast Rib of Beef – whatever the name this one SPECIAL cut of beef with superior flavor and texture. The price certainly reflects this so it is usually reserved for equally special occasions.
I love cooking my Rib of Beef in a slow cooker – honestly you will be amazed with the results. In this post I will show you how to cook an excellent prime rib roast in your Air Fryer. It is super-easy, quick and foolproof!
Grocery List
Prime rib (a.k.a Standing Rib Roast / Wing Rib) usually comes on the bone and a 2-3 rib joint will serve 6-8. You will need to choose a boneless prime rib joint in order to cook it in an air fryer as space is an issue.
Other than the beef you only need olive oil, salt and pepper and your favorite beef seasoning mix. I used Old Bay seasoning in this recipe – see recipe card below for more seasoning suggestions.
ESSENTIAL TOOLS
- Meat thermometer (I swear by my Thermapen)
- Cosori XXL Air Fryer
- Carving set (this Victorinox one is aces!)
- Butcher’s block cutting board
HOW TO MAKE AIR FRYER RIB OF BEEF
Full measurements and instructions can be found on the printable recipe card at the bottom of the page. Please take a look at the steps and video before attempting this recipe!
PREP THE BEEF
Take your beef joint out of the fridge for 30 minutes prior to cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. Pat dry and drizzle with olive oil then season liberally with salt and pepper, a good 10 turns of the mill per side. Sprinkle with the seasoning.
ROAST IN AIR FRYER
Preheat the air fryer ( I used my Cosori XXL) 400°F / 200°C for 10 minutes. Place the beef in the air fryer basket and cook for seven minutes per side (14 minutes total).
Reduce the temperature to 350°F / 180°C and cook for a further 15 minutes per side. Check the core temperature with an instant read thermometer inserting the probe in the middle thickest part. If the beef is not quite done then continue cooking for a few more minutes (3-5).
REST THE BEEF
Transfer the beef to a plate and cover loosely with foil. The temperature will continue to rise slightly as it rests – check my roasting time chart to ensure roasting perfection.
CARVE AND ENJOY!
Rest for 20-30 minutes then slice against the grain and serve with your favorite side dishes, such as my Air Fryer Yorkshire Puddings and Perfect Roast Potatoes!
BEEF ROAST TEMPERATURE CHART
I suggest you cook prime rib rare or medium rare. Take the beef out of the air fryer when the temperature register about three degrees LOWER than the desired target temperature to allow for it to rise slightly as it rests.
| Rare | 120-129°F | 49-54°C |
| Medium Rare | 130-134°F | 55-57°C |
| Medium | 135-144°F | 58-62°C |
| Medium Well | 145-154°F | 63-67°C |
| Well Done | 155-164°F | 68-73°C |
