I seared by prime rib at 450 degrees for 30 minutes and then I was supposed to reduce the temp to 325 for an additional 3 hours. I forgot to turn down the temperature and caught my mistake 25 minutes into cooking. How much time should I reduce my cooking by?

It's hard to tell, since it depends on a lot of different factors. I would estimate that you should reduce the cooking time by about 20 minutes. For the future, I would recommend investing in a meat thermometer. Then you can tell when the meat is done without relying on oven temperatures and times.

1Completely agree, meat roasting times are guidelines, the shape of the meat, the cut and other factors make the real time vary. A meat thermometer takes the guesswork out of it.– GdDNov 20, 2018 at 9:25
