What do you think of this restaurants prime rib technique

House of Prime Rib, San Francisco

They bake the prime rib roasts in drawers covered in salt. Then they cut off all the crust, so everything is pink.

So I see a sort of dry brine (for the duration of cooking) and a very even doneness. It looks delicious on the plate; I would love to eat it. And the chef seem to know a thing or two

But seems wasteful if all the salt and skips on any potential for Maillard reaction or crust with herbs / seasonings. At home I would just dry brine in the fridge and reverse sear … I get if that’s not easy to operationalize for a large business

What do the chefs here think?
