I hadn’t ever indulged in prime rib until after I was married. It’s a luxury that I never knew. My farmer took me to dinner one night and we ordered prime rib. It was either a blessing on his part or a curse! 
Beautiful Prime Rib!
It might have been a curse for my farmer because at first bite, prime rib became my new favorite food. It’s pretty much all I wanted to eat for a few years!
 
It was a blessing to my farmer because I am one of those  people who eats out and tries to figure out how to duplicate the food the whole time I’m eating it. And I must admit, I probably won’t pay to eat prime rib at a restaurant ever again! I’m learning to make a mean prime rib!

Adding sauteed peppers and onions seemed like the right thing to do. You could spread a layer of horseradish on the bread too, if you are into that sort of thing.
