Ingredients
- 1 standing rib roast 4–6 pounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- Optional: beef broth for pan
Instructions
Bring Meat to Room Temperature
- Remove rib roast from fridge and let it sit for 1 hour. This helps it cook evenly inside and outside.
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). This high heat helps create a flavorful crust on the roast.
Prepare the Seasoning Mix
- In a bowl, mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary and thyme. This creates a flavorful rub.
Rub the Roast
- Rub olive oil all over the meat. Then coat evenly with seasoning mix and minced garlic for deep flavor.
Place in Roasting Pan
- Place the roast bone-side down on a rack in roasting pan. This allows even air circulation.
Start High-Heat Roasting
- Roast at 450°F for 20 minutes. This helps form a crispy and flavorful outer crust.
Lower the Temperature
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (165°C). Continue roasting slowly for even cooking and tenderness.
Check Internal Temperature
- Use a meat thermometer. For medium-rare, cook until 130–135°F inside. Adjust based on preference.
Rest the Meat
- Remove roast from oven and let it rest for 20 minutes. This keeps juices locked inside.
Slice and Serve
- Cut into thick slices and serve warm. Enjoy juicy, tender beef with rich flavor.
Notes
- Use fresh herbs for stronger aroma
- Add butter on top for extra richness
- Cook on bone for better flavor
- Do not skip resting time
- Use garlic butter rub for extra taste
- Serve with pan juices as gravy
- Pair with roasted vegetables or potatoes
