What is prime rib? I think it is a ribeye roast but what makes the texture different from a ribeye? How do I turn a ribeye into prime rib?

Prime rib is a sliced steak out of a slow-roasted whole ribeye.

Yes. The very limited browning (if any) is a result of a higher finishing heat in the oven. Some people take a cooked roast and slap it in a skillet to put a crust on the outside. But combined with the marbled fat melting out and the fact that interior meat is never exposed to heat, prime rib has a much different flavor and look than just a slice of ribeye slammed on the grill.

Could you not do the same thing to a whole filet or Whole T Bone?

The whole tenderloins are done like this all the time. It's not the same marbling, so the meat comes out different. But a whole roasted tenderloin looks something like this when sliced & served (this is a backstrap, actually).

But to do the same thing with a t-bone would essentially be a bone-in prime rib, with the section of tenderloin. Porterhouse is a ribeye one side, and tenderloin on the other.

Tenderloin and roasted brussel sprouts are so good together. That picture made me so hungry.

It was definitely a good meal. I browned it a little too "aggressively" and it was tougher than I'd like, but still very good. Sliced it in thirds, stacked & tied the sections into one large roast. Carpaccio from the same loin is on the salad.
