Ingredients Method

  • 4 lb Beef Rib Roast boneless
  • 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil or more to rub over entire roast

  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Dry Mustard Powder

Method
 

  1. Take the rib roast out of the fridge 2 hours before cooking to let it come to room temperature. This will allow it to cook evenly.

  3. Combine all of the spice in a small bowl.
  4. Rub the roast with olive oil on all sides and coat with the spice mix being sure to cover all sides.
  5. Place the roast on a wire rack in a shallow rimmed baking pan.
  6. Roast for 15 minutes at 450˚ then lower heat to 325˚ and roast for one hour longer or until thermometer reads 125˚ for rare. (see written instructions above for other tempertures)
  7. Remove from oven and cover with foil for 15-20 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
  8. Enjoy!
