Roast Peppered Rib Eye of Beef image

This is my mother-in-law's famous Christmas roast. Since I have hosted Christmas the last several years, I have taken it on, and it truly is mouth watering. We have used eye of round instead of rib eye, but for Christmas '07 I dropped the cash for an 8 pound rib eye roast, and it was worth every penny! She got the recipe from Charlie's Cafe Exceptionale in Minneapolis.
