Prime Rib Temperatures......

What would be the internal temps for a prime rib done medium rare? How about medium? One chart I find online says 130?-134? for medium rare, and 135?-144? for medium. Another chart says 140?-145? is well done. It seems like we cooked one to 140?-142? in the past and it was pretty dang rare. That doesn't bother me, but my wife would prefer some that was a bit more done. I'm good with medium rare, and maybe even medium.

Any guidance/help appreciated! I gotta run to town so I'll check back in a bit.

    I go with the low 130's for mine. It's red and juicy inside, and the outside ends are more done for your wife...

    Use Captain Fun's' recipe and you'll get a perfect medium rare.
    Preheat the oven to 500.
    Season the roast to your liking (I use Kosher salt and garlic pepper)
    Cook at 500 degrees for 5 minutes per pound (4lb roast x 5 minutes = 20 minutes @ 500.)
    After the correct amount of time has passed turn the oven off and wait 2 hours.
    DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR DURING THE 2 HOURS!!!

    I've done it this way 5 or 6 times now and it's perfect every time!
    When should I be there for supper? I can bring the mashed 'taters!!!

    Im not a prime rib expert but on my big green egg steaks get pulled:

    Rare: 115 & rest 5 minutes before serving
    Med-rare: 125 & rest 5 minutes before serving
    Medium: pull &130-140 & rest 5 minutes.

    Im pretty good at making people happy with steak.

    When they are resting I drop a big square of Kerrigan Irish garlic butter on top.

    Since nobody specified this, I'll post it. You want to get your roast to room temp before you start it. Am I right?

    Ok here's the deal. Cooked in the air fryer. 6# prime rib. 350? for 1 hour 50 minutes. Internal temp of 136? Let rest for 20 minutes. It was grand.

    Agree ;), a little red doesn't bother me but to my desire that's a wee too much red even though I'm sure it has very good taste.....I fear blood born diseases big time :o but if y'all like it good for you and happy eating :D
