Categories Beef Bake

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 teaspoon pink and/or black peppercorns, cracked
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 4- to 6-pound boneless beef rib-eye roast
1 recipe Horseradish Cream

Steps:

1. Sprinkle cracked peppercorns and salt evenly over roast; rub in with your fingers. Place roast, fat side up, on a rack in a 15-1/2x10-1/2x2-inch roasting pan. Insert an oven-going meat thermometer into center of roast. Roast, uncovered, in a 350 degree F oven until desired doneness. (Allow 1-3/4 to 2 hours for medium-rare doneness [135 degree F] or 2 to 2-1/2 hours for medium doneness [150 degreeF].) 2. Reserve pan drippings for Individual Yorkshire Puddings or Yorkshire Pudding. Cover with roast with foil; let stand while preparing pudding(s). (The meat's temperature will rise 10 degree F during standing.) 3. To serve, slice roast. Serve with the Horseradish Cream. Horseradish Cream: In a chilled small bowl, beat 1/2 cup whipping cream with chilled beater of an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tip curl). Fold in 2 tablespoons cream-style prepared horseradish and 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard. Serve immediately, or cover and store horseradish mixture in the refrigerator up to 24 hours.
