Foolproof Rib Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Allow roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Rub roast with House Seasoning; place roast on a rack in the pan with the rib side down and the fatty side up.
• Roast for 1 hour. Turn off oven. Leave roast in oven but do not open oven door for 2-3 hours. (I give a range because I have had roasts perfect to a bit over-cooked. I would check temperature after 2 hours--don't go over 125°F in final cooking cycle because it will rise another 10 degrees or so during resting phase).
• About 30 to 40 minutes before serving time, turn oven to 375°F and reheat the roast. Important: Do not remove roast or re-open the oven door from time roast is put in until ready to serve.
• Cover with foil and let stand for 15 minutes before cutting.
• Note: I learned from a chef a trick for satisfying everyone with prime rib. Cook it rare. If anyone wants it done medium, dip their slice in a pot of simmering au jus for 1 minute.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a small bowl combine the cayenne, rosemary, and garlic. Add enough olive oil until it becomes a loose paste. Schmear the roast with the rosemary-garlic paste and really massage it into the meat. Season generously with kosher salt.
• Put the onions, baby carrots, celery and mushrooms in the bottom of a roasting pan. Toss with a little olive oil and salt, to taste. Add the wine, 1 cup of chicken stock and the bay leaves. Put the roast on top of the veggies and put into the preheated oven until the roast is really brown and lovely, about 25 to 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F for another 1 3/4 to 2 hours. Occasionally during the cooking time, spoon some of the juices over the meat. If the liquid level in the pan goes down too much, add the remaining 1 cup of stock. It also would be a great idea to rotate the roasting pan about halfway through the cooking process.
• Check the temperature of the meat by inserting an instant-read thermometer into the center of the roast. For medium-rare it should be 125 degrees F and 130 for medium. Remove the roast from the oven to a cutting board and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
• Taste the veggies in the pan juices and season with salt, to taste, if needed. Skim off any excess fat.
• Slice the roast and arrange on a serving platter. Serve with the veggies and the pan juices.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a rack in a roasting pan.
• Combine salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a small cup.
• Place room-temperature roast on the rack in the roasting pan with the fatty side up and the rib side on the bottom. Rub the seasoning onto the roast.
• Roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Turn the oven off and leave the roast inside for 3 hours, without opening the door.
• Turn the oven back on to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and reheat the roast for 30 to 40 minutes. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a rack inside a roasting pan.
• Mix garlic powder, onion powder, dill weed, pepper, and salt together in a bowl; rub onto roast, including the ribs. Place roast, rib-side down, onto rack in roasting pan.
• Bake roast in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Turn off oven, keeping the door closed the entire time, and keep roast in oven for 3 hours. Turn oven back to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and cook roast until an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (65 degrees C) is reached, 30 minutes more.

Steps:

• 1. Let the roast rest at room temperature for 3 hours, this will ensure even cooking and help you estimate the cooking time better.
• 2. I cut the ribs away from the roast and tie them back with cooking string. This makes it easier to cut when it's done but you do not need to do this.
• 3. Place the roast in a shallow pan, you do not need a rack -- hence "standing rib roast"!
• 4. Generously season the roast with Lawry's Salt, it's the best. You may use salt and ground pepper if you prefer.
• 5. Start at a high heat of 500 degrees for 15 minutes, turn the oven down to a lower temperature of 325 degrees for the remainder of the cooking time. As long as you have the thermometer in the meat, you will not over cook it. If your oven only goes to 450 degrees, that will work fine. Insert the thermometer from the side, it will be easier to find the center without hitting the ribs.
• Allow 13-15 minutes per pound for rare, 15-17 minutes per pound for medium rare. Use the guide below to set your thermometer, this is not a cut of meat to guess when it's done.
• 6. Take the roast out of the oven when the desired temperature is reached. Air on the rare side. Cover with foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes and it will continue to cook.
• Set the meat thermometer to the following:.
• Rare, 115.
• Medium Rare, 120 (used above)
• Medium, 125.
• Medium Well, 130.
• Let the meat rest for 15-20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to distribute back into the meat.
• If you don't have a meat thermometer, here is another fool proof method. This is called Millie's Method! Cook the roast in a 500 degree oven for 5 minutes per pound (for medium rare) and than shut the oven off and let it cook for 1 full hour. It's very important to not open the oven during this time. Let the meat rest before carving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. In a small bowl, mix the first 5 ingredients. Place roast in a roasting pan, fat side up; rub with seasoning mixture., Roast 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove roast from oven; tent with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before carving., Meanwhile, pour drippings and loosened browned bits from roasting pan into a small saucepan. Skim fat. Add beef stock to drippings; bring to a boil. Serve with roast.

Steps:

• Allow roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degree F.
• Rub roast with ONLY 1 tablespoon of House Seasoning (See step #6). Place roast on a rack in a roasting pan with the rib side down and the fatty side up. Place a meat thermometer into the roast, but be sure that it is not touching the bones. Roast for 1 hour. uncovered.
• Turn off oven. Leave roast in oven but DO NOT open oven door for the next 3 hours.
• About 30 to 40 minutes before serving time, turn oven to 375 degrees F and reheat the roast. *Important: DO NOT remove roast or re-open the oven door from time roast is put in until ready to serve.
• *Note: House Seasoning: Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months. It makes a lot, but be sure to only use 1 tablespoon.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Allow roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder in a small cup. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan so that the fatty side is up and the rib side is on the bottom. Rub the seasoning onto the roast.
• Roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Turn the oven off and leave the roast inside. Do not open the door. Leave it in there for 3 hours. 30 to 40 minutes before serving, turn the oven back on at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) to reheat the roast. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving into servings.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to low position and preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Heat a large roasting pan over 2 burners set at medium-high heat. Place roast in hot pan and sear on all sides until nicely browned and about 1/2 cup of fat has rendered, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove roast from pan. Set a wire rack in pan; set roast on rack. Generously season meat with salt and pepper.
• Place roast in oven and roast until a meat thermometer registers 130 degrees for medium-rare, about 3 1/2 hours. If roast is done sooner than you expect, simply turn oven as low as possible (preferably 150 to 170 degrees F) and let stand until ready to serve.
• Transfer roast to a cutting board, with rib bones perpendicular to board. Using a carving fork to hold roast in place, cut along rib bones to sever meat from bones. Set roast cut side down and carve meat across grain into 3/4 to 1-inch-thick slices. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Using a knife, poke small holes all over uncooked roast, and insert a half of a clove of fresh garlic in the hole (as many holes and as much garlic as desired).
• Cover roast, and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, remove the roast from fridge and uncover; let sit out at room temperature for about 2 to 2-1/2 hours (this is an important step to relax the meat fibers, it will make for a more tender juicy roast, the length of counter-time will depend on the size of your roast).
• Set oven to 450°F and allow the oven to preheat for a minimum of 15 minutes.
• Season the roast with only a small amount of salt but lots of fresh ground black pepper pepper (that's all nothing else but a little salt and fresh ground black pepper, using any other spices will take away the flavor from the prime rib!).
• Place the roast fat-side up on a rack in a shallow-sided pan, then insert a meat thermometer in the middle of the roast but not touching any rib bones.
• Roast uncovered at 450°F for 20 minutes (a few more minutes won't hurt at 450°F).
• After 20 minutes of high heat cooking reduce heat to 350°F and continue to roast for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes OR until the meat thermometer reads 130°F for rare doneness OR 140°F for medium-rare doneness, that is the way a prime rib really should be served, check your roast after 1 hour cooking time.
• *NOTE* It is strongly advised to remove the roast slightly before desired degree of doneness is achieved as the roast will continue to rise in temperature several degrees after removing from the oven.
• Remove meat to a carving board.
• Cover loosely with foil and allow let rest (DO NOT CUT INTO ROAST for at least 20 or more minutes or all juices in the meat will flow out).
• While the roast is resting prepare the au jus; place the roasting pan on top of the stove over high heat.
• Add in the wine; cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring and scraping any brown bits.
• Add in the beef stock; cook and reduce the juice by half (this might take about 20 minutes).
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Slice roast (just before serving!) and drizzle with some of the juice.
• *NOTE* if desired you can cover the roast loosely with foil the first hour and then uncover and cook for the remaining time.
• --------------------------------------------.
• APPROXIMATE COOKING TIMES for the prime rib cooked at 350°F after the 20 minute cooking time at 450°F.
• Rare; cook 12-13 minutes per pound or to 130°F.
• Medium-rare; cook 14-16 minutes per pound or to 140°F (I would not recommend cooking a prime rib any more than medium-rare).
• Since every oven cooks differently cooking times are only approximate.
• SUGGESTED SERVING PORTIONS PER PERSON ----for a generous serving of prime rib roast you should figure on 2 people per rib, that means if you plan to serve 6 people you should be able to do so with 3 ribs/ eight people with 4 ribs/ do not bother with less than 3 ribs anything less than that is not a roast but rather a steak and would be better treated as such.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a rack in a roasting pan.
• Combine salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a small cup.
• Place room-temperature roast on the rack in the roasting pan with the fatty side up and the rib side on the bottom. Rub the seasoning onto the roast.
• Roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Turn the oven off and leave the roast inside for 3 hours, without opening the door.
• Turn the oven back on to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and reheat the roast for 30 to 40 minutes. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Allow roast to sit at room temp for an hour.
• Rinse off the roast and pat it dry.
• Rub olive oil and minced/crushed garlic over the entire roast.
• Sprinkle the roast with salt and pepper.
• Bake uncovered for 1 hour at 375.
• DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN.
• Turn off the oven.
• Keep roast in the oven for 4 hours. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN.
• After the 4 hours, turn the oven back on to 375 and cook for an additional 30 minutes for rare-medium rare.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first four ingredients; rub half over the roast. Place roast in a large resealable plastic bag; seal and refrigerate overnight, turning often. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade., Drain and discard marinade. Place roast fat side up in a large roasting pan; pour reserved marinade over roast. Tent with foil. Bake at 350° for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 1-1/2 hours longer or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing.
