Ingredients
1 5-pound bone-in standing rib roast
1 c. salt
1/4 c. Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c. garlic powder
Preparation
Step 1Allow the roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place a roasting rack in a large roasting pan.Step 2Rub the roast all over with 1 tablespoon House Seasoning. Place on the prepared roasting rack with the rib side down and the fatty side up. Roast for 1 hour. Turn the oven off. Leave the roast in the oven but do not open the oven door for at least another 3 hours (it can sit in the oven for up to 6 hours after roasting). About 30 to 45 minutes before serving time, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Reheat the roast until a meat thermometer inserted in the center of the meat reads 120 degrees F. The result? The most perfectly cooked rib roast you have ever tasted!
