Directions:To cook a standing rib roast so that it will be crusty and brown on outside and evenly rare and juicy on the inside, follow these 4 rules.
Rule #1 The roast must be at room temperature. Leave it out of refrigerator 1 hour for each pound or leave out overnight. Rule #2 Season roast and place it rib side down in a shallow pan. Put it uncovered in a preheated 425 degree oven. Rule #3 Cook roast according to chart listed below. Rule #4 At the end of the required cooking time, turn oven off and do not open door for at least 3 hours. Meat cooks on retained heat. Resist the urge to peek! The roast will have finished cooking but still be warm after 4-5 hours, depending on size.
I use lots of black pepper and garlic salt and pat on the roast. I have the butcher cut the ribs away and then tie back on the roast. This makes easier cutting, but if you want you ribs intact that's o.k. also. Use a good cut of meat - Costco has prime beef which has been aged longer and has a better fat covering which will give the meat a better flavor. Or go to a good meat market. I allow 10 oz. per serving. |
