16 Best Leftover Prime Rib Recipes
One of my favorite recipes on this list is easily the leftover prime rib soup. It’s the perfect way to warm up on a cold winter night and take in lots of healthy nutrients.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 medium carrots peeled and chopped
- 2 stalks of celery chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic minced or chopped finely
- 4 beef ribs cooked fresh or leftover
- 2 cups of water
- 8 cups of low-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup of barley
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 sprigs of rosemary
- 2 sprigs of thyme
- ½ cup of red wine
- Black pepper freshly ground
- Kosher salt
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot with a matching lid over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped carrots, onions, and celery and cook for around 5 minutes, or when onions are translucent.
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Add beef ribs and pour in the water and broth. Add more water if needed to cover everything.
- Add the bay leaf, thyme, and rosemary—season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Cover the pot with the lid and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until meat is tender (it should be able to fall apart). This should take around 1 hour and a half. Add more broth if needed.
- Remove the ribs, bay leaf, thyme, and rosemary from the pot. Shred the ribs with a fork and discard the rosemary and thyme.
- Return to the pot and pour in the red wine and barley. Simmer until barley is tender for around 1 hour—season with more salt and pepper to taste if needed.
