Anne Burrell's Standing Rib Roast

Filed under Beef

Recipe courtesy Anne Burrell.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Combine the cayenne, rosemary, and garlic with enough olive oil to make a loose paste. Smear it over the roast, massaging it in. Season generously with kosher salt.
  3. Put the onions, carrots, celery and mushrooms in a roasting pan, toss with a little olive oil and salt. Add the wine, 1 cup of the stock and the bay leaves. Set the roast on top of the vegetables.
  4. Roast until really brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and roast another 1 3/4 to 2 hours, spooning the juices over the meat occasionally, adding the remaining stock if the liquid gets low, and rotating the pan halfway through.
  5. Roast to 125 degrees F in the center for medium-rare (130 for medium). Rest on a cutting board 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
  6. Season the vegetables and pan juices with salt if needed and skim off the excess fat. Slice the roast and serve with the vegetables and pan juices.
