Standing Rib Roast

This easy recipe for Standing Rib Roast is a favorite of mine for entertaining. The garlic, pepper and Italian Seasoning add depth of flavor to the meat, it is so delicious.

It pairs well with roasted potatoes or baked mashed potatoes and tasty sauteed green beans. A terrific meal for a small gathering of friends or family.

Don't forget dessert. How about a Chocolate Cake.

Standing Rib Roast

Seasoning Mix:
1 Tbsp black pepper
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp kosher salt
2 Tbsp Italian Seasoning mix

Liquids:
1/2 cup red wine
1 cup beef broth

Slice 2 garlic cloves into 4 or 5 pieces. Randomly cut slits along the top of roast, about 1-2 inches deep. Press garlic into the slits.

Mix dry seasonings. Coat roast with olive oil. Place dry seasoning mix all over, except the bottom. Allow roast to stand at room
temperature for 1 hour.

After 1 hour, turn oven to 325 degrees.

Place rib side down, in a roasting pan.
Add the beef broth & red wine. Cook
for approximately 1 3/4 hours to 2 hours.
About 27 minutes per pound for
medium-rare. Internal temperature
should be 145 degrees.

Place roast on carving board, cover with
foil for 20 minutes. This allows time for
juices to re-distribute. The temperature will
rise 5-10 degree while resting.

Carefully strain liquid into sauce pan, simmer
until ready to drizzle over meat.

Slice and serve. Your guests who like
medium-well, give them the end pieces,
save the middle for the medium-rare fans.

Yields 6-8 servings

Super Simple, Absolutely Delicious.

Cook's Note: Always important to let roast come to room temperature. Cooking right from the refrigerator does not produce desired results. This roast is beautiful when it comes out of the oven, a nice brown crust and full of flavor.

Sauteed Mushrooms are great with this roast. When roast is resting saute mushrooms.....a great compliment for the meat.
