Ingredients:
- 1 (4-bone) Standing Rib Roast, approx. 9 lbs
- 3 tbsp Kosher salt
- 2 tbsp Coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 6 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 cups Beef bone broth
- 1/2 cup Dry red wine
- 1 Shallot, minced
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
Instructions:
- Pat the roast completely dry with paper towels. Season all sides generously with kosher salt and pepper. For best results, dry brine uncovered in the refrigerator on a wire rack for 12–24 hours. Remove from fridge 2 hours before cooking.
- Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to create a compound butter.
- Slather the garlic-herb butter over the top and sides of the roast. Place the meat bone-side down on a V-rack in a roasting pan.
- Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the beef. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 120°F (49°C) for rare or 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare.
- Remove the roast from the oven and tent loosely with foil. Increase the oven temperature to 500°F (260°C). Once reached, return the roast to the oven for 6–10 minutes to develop a dark, crispy crust.
- Transfer the roast to a carving board and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
- While resting, simmer beef broth, red wine, shallot, and thyme sprigs in a saucepan over medium heat, reducing by half to create a red wine jus.
