Instructions *** 12-25-13 very good christmas dinner *** December 22, 2011 tags: beef, Christmas, entertaining, gluten free, holiday, meat, prime rib, rib eye, rib eye roast, roast beef By Kath Dedon a People are often nervous about roasting an expensive Rib Eye Roast. Although I’ve roasted many beef roasts, I admit that I always research different ways to do it every time. Even though it’s actually very easy. This time I settled on the method from “CAREBEARCOOKING” on food.com. My 5.6 pound Choice Rib Eye Roast was approximately the same size as the one in the recipe (5 pounds). The only change I made was to cut the kosher salt in half. The original recipe called for ½ cup of kosher salt; I used ¼ cup and it was plenty. If you don’t have a meat thermometer, just follow the timing for this recipe and your roast should turn out fine. This recipe for Perfect Rib Eye Roast is very simple, but it makes a fabulous special meal for family and friends. a a a Perfect Rib Eye Roast (Adapted from a recipe from CAREBEARCOOKING on food.com) a A Rib Eye Roast is the same cut as a “Prime Rib Roast”; it is simply a Choice grade of meat instead of a Prime grade. It’s much less expensive than Prime beef, and it is what you’ll find at most markets. The original recipe called for kosher salt which is what I use. For best results I recommend kosher salt. If you use table salt (Morton’s Iodized Salt, for example) cut the amount of salt at least in half. a (print the recipe) a For a bone-in roast, allow 1 – 1 ½ pounds per person. My 5.6 pound roast served 6, with just the meaty bones leftover. a 1 5-6 pound rib eye roast (choice cut “prime” rib roast) ¼ cup kosher salt (or 2 tablespoons table salt) 1 tablespoon garlic powder or 6 garlic cloves, crushed Pepper, generous amount a 1. Allow the roast to come to room temperature (allow 2 – 3 hours). 2. Preheat the oven to 500?. 3. Combine the salt and the garlic. Salt and crushed garlic cloves a Salt and garlic stirred together 4. Place the meat, bone side down, in a shallow roasting pan. (I found that my 12-inch cast iron skillet was a perfect fit.) 5. Add about 1/4 cup water to the pan. a 6. Rub the roast all over with the salt and garlic. Generously grind pepper over it. a 7. Roast the meat for 15 minutes. 8. Do not open the oven, but after 15 minutes turn the oven temperature down to 350? 325?. 9. Continue to roast at 350? 325? for about 20 minutes per pound. (1 hour and 52 minutes for my 5.6 pound roast). This timing should produce a roast that’s Medium-Rare to Medium. Update 12/24/12: If you like your roast a bit more on the rare side, try roasting it for about 18 minutes per pound. If you have a meat thermometer, start checking the roast about 15 minutes before you think it will be done. Rare: 140-150? 125 – 130? Medium: 150-160? 135 – 140? Well: 170-180? (please don’t do this) 10. Allow the roast to sit for 20 – 30 minutes before slicing. a This recipe published with BigOven, and can be imported instantly by BigOven users.
