Best Thelmas Standing Rib Roast No Peek Recipes

PRIME RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Remove the roast from the refrigerator 2 or 3 hours before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 450.
• Rub butter on the cut ends of the roast.
• Combine flour, salt and pepper together in a small bowl, and then massage the mixture all over the meat.
• Set the roast, rib side down, in a shallow roasting pan (the ribs act as a natural rack), and place in the oven. Roast for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, or until the roast is nicely darkened. Reduce oven to 350 and continue to roast, basting every 15 or 20 minutes, until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 125 degrees (for medium-rare) on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the roast to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes before carving into either huge slabs or off the bone entirely and then thin slices.

EASY "NO PEEK" PRIME RIB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500º.
• Mix seasonings together and pat all over the roast.
• It probably won't stick very well to the fat side but that's ok.
• Put the roast in a Dutch oven, preferably on a small rack to lift it off the bottom of the pot.
• Bone side up (fat side down).
• Place a meat thermometer in the middle of the roast being careful not to get too close to the bone.
• Cover with lid (you need a fairly large Dutch oven so the lid will fit on properly).
• Cook the roast in the oven for 5-6 minutes per pound, then shut off the oven.
• DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR TWO HOURS, UNDER PENALTY OF DEATH!
• ****The 2 hours starts as soon as the roast is put in the oven****.
• After two hours, take it out and check the temperature.
• If it's 140º, it's perfect!
• If it's cooler, put back in oven at 375º until it reaches 140º.
• This procedure will yield a PERFECT MEDIUM RARE PRIME RIB.
• Don't ask how to do medium or well done because cooking prime rib past medium rare is a felony.

FOOLPROOF RIB ROAST

Steps:

• Allow roast to stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder in a small cup. Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan so that the fatty side is up and the rib side is on the bottom. Rub the seasoning onto the roast.
• Roast for 1 hour in the preheated oven. Turn the oven off and leave the roast inside. Do not open the door. Leave it in there for 3 hours. 30 to 40 minutes before serving, turn the oven back on at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) to reheat the roast. The internal temperature should be at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving into servings.

ROASTED PRIME RIB WITH THYME AND MARSALA

Steps:

• For the beef: Allow the beef to stand at room temperature before roasting, 30 minutes. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mix together the thyme, salt, pepper and garlic in a small bowl. Make 1-inch-long, 1/2-inch-deep slits all over the meat using a paring knife. Rub the garlic mixture into the slits and onto the rest of the meat. Place the meat, fat-side up, in a shallow roasting pan. Roast for 45 minutes. Cover the meat with foil and continue to roast until a meat thermometer inserted straight down into the center of the meat registers 145 degrees F for medium-rare, 65 to 75 minutes. Place the roast on a baking sheet and tent with foil. Allow to rest for 20 minutes.
• For the sauce: Combine any juices from the rested meat with the broth, marsala, arrowroot and thyme in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer until thick, 20 minutes. Whisk in the butter until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce into a serving pitcher. Slice the roast into 1/2-inch-thick slices and arrange on a platter. Serve the sauce alongside.
