Herbed Standing Rib Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Let beef sit at room temperature 1 hour. Preheat oven to 275 degrees, with rack in lower third. In a spice grinder, combine fennel seed, thyme, and rosemary and process into a powder. Pat beef dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Place a large broilerproof roasting pan across two burners and heat over medium-high. Add beef, fat side down, and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer beef to a rimmed baking sheet. Tilt pan and use paper towels to wipe any burned bits from bottom but leave drippings. When beef is cool enough to handle, sprinkle all over with herb mixture.
• With a serrated knife, cut garlic heads in half crosswise. Arrange garlic halves in middle of pan; prop beef on top. Roast until garlic is tender and beef is medium-rare (an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of roast should read 125 degrees), 1 3/4 to 2 hours. Transfer roast and garlic to a cutting board and tent loosely with foil; let rest 30 minutes.
• To carve, separate the meat from the bones by sliding a knife between the ribs and the meat and cutting downward, following curve of bones. Then cut the ribs apart.
• To serve, slice meat against the grain. Arrange on a serving platter with ribs and garlic.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients; rub over roast. Place onions, carrots and celery in a large roasting pan; place roast over vegetables. , Bake, uncovered, 2-1/4 to 3 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°)., Remove roast to a serving platter and keep warm; let stand 15 minutes before slicing., Meanwhile, for au jus, strain and discard vegetables. Pour drippings into a measuring cup; skim fat. Add wine to roasting pan, stirring to remove any browned bits. Stir in drippings; heat through. Serve with roast. Garnish platter with herbs and fruit if desired.

Steps:

• Cut 15-20 slits in the roast; insert garlic. Tie the roast at 1-1/2-in. to 2-in. intervals with kitchen string. Combine salt, pepper, basil, parsley and marjoram; rub over roast. Place fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat reaches the desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Put the rib roast in a large roasting pan and set aside.
• Put the olive oil, rosemary, sage, thyme, salt, pepper and garlic in a food processor and pulse until everything is combined but there are still some chunks of herbs. Rub the mixture all over the roast.
• Roast for 20 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Roast until the internal temperature registers 130 degrees F for medium rare, about 2 hours. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then slice into 1/2- to 1-inch pieces.

Steps:

• Prepare roast:
• Trim all but a thin layer of fat from roast. Grind peppercorns and bay leaves with salt to a powder in an electric coffee/spice grinder, then transfer to a mortar. Add garlic, thyme, and rosemary, then pound to a smooth paste with pestle. Stir in oil. Rub paste all over roast. Transfer roast to a rack set in a small flameproof roasting pan. Marinate, covered and chilled, at least 8 hours.
• Cook roast:
• Let roast stand at room temperature 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Roast beef in middle of oven 20 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350°F and roast beef until a thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 110°F, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours more. Transfer beef to a large platter and let stand, uncovered, 25 minutes. (Meat will continue to cook, reaching about 130°F for medium-rare.)
• Make jus:
• Skim fat from pan juices. Add broth, rosemary, thyme, and garlic and deglaze pan by simmering on top of stove over moderate heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits. Transfer to a small saucepan and add any juices that have collected on platter. Gently simmer 10 minutes. Skim fat and season jus with salt and pepper.
• Put slices from roast and serve with jus.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F Season roast on all sides with salt, pepper and garlic. Place roast on rack in 13x9 inch baking dish. Bake 1 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, chop parsley coarsely. Combine in small bowl with bread crumbs and rosemary; set aside.
• Remove roast from oven. Coat roast with mustard and then bread crumb mixture. Bake 1 more hour or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees (medium rare) or up to 170 degrees (well done). Use a meat thermometer to accurately ensure doneness.
• Let roast stand 10-15 minutes before slicing; slice and serve.

Steps:

• Build a fire (wood or a combination of charcoal and wood) for indirect cooking by situating the coals on only one side of the grill, leaving the other side void.
• On a doubled square of aluminum foil, place the garlic cloves, thyme, rosemary, and oregano. Drizzle the olive oil over the ingredients. Wrap the foil tight and place over the void side of the grill. Cook the foil pouch for 45 minutes at 250°F.
• Remove the pouch from the cooker and open the foil. After cooling slightly, squeeze the garlic cloves from the husks into a small bowl. Mash the garlic and cooked herbs together, forming a paste. Stir in the softened butter and mix well. Spoon the mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll it into a small log. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes, or up to 2 weeks.
• Cut small slits every 3/4 inch onto the top (the opposite side from the bones) of the rib roast. Slice the chilled garlic herb butter into pats and insert one into each slit, using the entire amount of butter. Season the rib roast evenly with the salt and pepper.
• Place the rib roast on the void side of the grill with the bone side down and cook over indirect heat for 2 to 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 120 to 125°F for rare, 130 to 135°F for medium rare, or 140 to 145°F for medium. Let the roast rest under tented foil for 20 minutes and then slice between each bone into thick steaks.
