Bacon Herb Seasoned Beef Rib Roast Food

HERB AND GARLIC CRUSTED BEEF RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. For easy cleanup, line shallow roasting pan with foil. Place beef, fat side up, in pan. In small bowl, mix basil, thyme, salt, garlic powder and pepper; sprinkle and press onto all surfaces of roast. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of beef and does not rest in fat or touch bone. (Do not add water to pan.)
• For medium-rare, roast uncovered 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 135°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 10°F, and beef will be easier to carve.) Cover beef loosely with foil; let stand 15 to 20 minutes until thermometer reads 145°F. For medium, roast 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 hours 45 minutes or until thermometer reads 150°F. Cover beef loosely with foil; let stand 15 to 20 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F.
• Remove beef from pan onto carving board; carve beef. Serve with pan drippings if desired.

HERB CRUSTED PRIME RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• To prepare rib roast, remove the excess fat from the bottom of the roast, and then trim the layer of fat from the top rounded side. Save the trimmed fat.
• In a bowl, mix all the herbs well, and then add the salt and pepper and mix again. Next, add the oil, whisk to mix, and then apply to the exterior of the roast evenly on all sides. Top with the reserved trimmed fat. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 120 degrees F for medium-rare, about 2 1/2 hours. Then allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
• Serve with the pan drippings or sauce if preferred.

HERB-SCENTED SLOW-ROASTED RIB OF BEEF

Steps:

• Take the beef out of the fridge and leave it to come up to temperature overnight or for at least three hours. Tip the garlic and all the herbs and spices into a large roasting tin and, using a blow torch or under a hot grill, singe the herbs until they start to smoulder (if using a grill to do this, do not leave it unattended), then leave to cool slightly.
• Heat oven to 100C/80C fan/gas ¼. Rub a tbsp of salt over the meat, then sit the joint on top of the herbs. Pour over the wine, then tightly tent the tin in a couple of sheets of extra-wide foil. Roast in the oven for 1 hr, then reduce the temperature to 70C/50C fan (if you have a gas oven, don't adjust the temperature), and slow roast for 3 hrs more.
• Remove the foil, then insert a digital probe into the middle of the joint - when the temperature reaches around 60C, it's ready. If the meat is not up to temperature, increase oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2, and roast with the foil off, checking the temperature every 15 mins. While the beef is cooking, make the glaze by whisking all the ingredients together.
• When the beef is cooked, remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Return the beef to the oven for 5 mins to crisp and blister the fat, then generously brush the glaze all over the joint and return to the oven for 5 mins until sticky and slighty charred - keep an eye on it, as it will burn very easily at this stage. Lift the beef onto a chopping board and leave to rest for 20 mins.
• To make a herby gravy, put the roasting tin over a low heat and stir in the flour to make a gloopy paste. Add in any remaining glaze, then carefully pour in 500ml boiling water. Boil for a few minutes, then strain into a small pan and keep warm. Serve the beef in thick slices, with gravy on the side.

HERB-ROASTED PRIME RIB

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.

STANDING RIB ROAST OF BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Brush the meat with the olive oil. Combine all of the seasonings in a small bowl. Rub the seasoning paste uniformly over the meat. Place the meat, bone side down, in a roasting pan and roast for 20 minutes.
• At the end of 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue cooking for 1 1/2 to 2 hours for medium rare or until a thermometer inserted near the center of the roast reads 130 degrees. While the beef is cooking, periodically, CAREFULLY pour off the fat that has accumulated in the roasting pan into a heat proof container.
• Remove the roast from the oven and allow to stand for 20 minutes before carving.
• After the roast has rested for 20 minutes, transfer it to a large cutting board, being careful not to burn yourself. Lay the roast bonesidedown on the cutting board. Insert a sharp knife between the meat and the rib bones, separating the meat from the ribs in one large piece to slice the beef into boneless slices or simply carve into rib portions, each with a bone attached . Carve the boneless meat into 1/2-inch thick slices.

HERB CRUSTED PRIME RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Rub the prime rib all over with some veggie oil. Season both sides of the meat with an aggressive amount of salt, including the end caps. You want a generous amount all over so it helps form a crust while cooking. Continue seasoning with some pepper(not as much as the salt), and a good amount of fresh herbs all over the meat. Use a knife to cut slits of the top side(fat side) of the meat. Make the cuts just big enough to stuff the garlic cloves all around. Ideally, let the roast marinate uncovered overnight in the fridge. This will help infuse lots of flavor and help form a great crust. Alternatively, you could let the roast come up to room temperature for 1-1.5 hours with the seasoning on before you cook it.
• Pre-heat oven to 325 F and setup the oven rack so the roast will sit on the bottom rack. Put the prime rib on a roasting rack in a pan. Insert a probe thermometer in the deepest part of the meat(don't touch the bones), and roast in the oven for 2.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 130 F(120 F for medium rare). You may need to add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the roasting pan if the fat starts to smoke.
• While the meat is cooking, make the butter by adding all the ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Butter can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for 1 week.
• When the meat reaches 130 F, take it out of the oven and loosely cover it with tin foil. Let rest for 30-60 minutes so the juices can re-distribute. Slice the meat, top it with the butter and enjoy!

HORSERADISH-AND-HERB-CRUSTED BEEF RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Stand the roast in a very large roasting pan.
• Season generously all over with salt and pepper and set it fatty side up.
• Spread the horseradish-herb butter all over the top.
• Bake for about 3 1/2 hours, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125°F for medium rare.
• Transfer the roast to a carving board to rest for at least 20 minutes or for up to 1 hour before serving.
• MAKE AHEAD The horseradish-herb butter can be refrigerated overnight.
• Let the butter soften before using.
• Serve with popovers from recipe #60384 and make with 3 tablespoons of the fat from the roast, french string beans, a nice bread and a sustantial Cabernet Sauvignon; Cabernet's firm tannins help cut the richness of the red meat.
