So, would a prime rib roast without the ribs roast for the same time? I cannot buy a roast wA question about a recipe: Ann Seranne's Rib Roa

I don't know what happened to my question as it came out discombulated.... however, I will try again - I cannot buy a rib-in roast in my area without mail order or traveling two to three hours. I can, however, buy a 4-5 pound prime-rib roast from Sam's Club (without ribs) - do I need to change the initial roasting time for a rib-less roast or just use a meat thermometer after the initial high heat roasting time to know when it's time to pull it out the rest and finish cooking?
