A great no-fuss way to feed a crowd. I found this recipe in Chatelaine not too long ago and it is wonderful.

Time 2h45m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 lbs prime rib roast
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons dried leaf thyme
2 teaspoons fresh coarse ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon salt, preferable coarse

Steps:

  • Place beef, fat-side up, in a lightly oiled, shallow roasting pan.
  • In a small bowl, stir Dijon with oil, thyme, pepper, rosemary and salt.
  • Spread mixture evenly over fat and sides of meat.
  • Coat ends lightly.
  • Do no coat bottom.
  • Let stand uncovered until meat comes to room temperature, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Roast beef, uncovered in center of oven until meat thermometer inserted in centre of meat reads 135F (57C) for medium rare, about 20 minutes per pound.
  • It is best to start checking temperature of meat after it has roasted for 1 3/4 hours.
  • Remove to a cutting board and cover loosely with a tent of foil.
  • Let stand at least 15 minutes before slicing.
