Easy Standing Rib Roast

Ingredients

• 1 (4 pound) rib roast

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed

• ¼ cup sea salt

• 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper

• 2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste

Preparation method

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).

• Brush rib roast lightly with olive oil. Rub sea salt, black pepper, and garlic into the roast. Place fatty-side up on a rack set inside a shallow pan.

• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and tent pan with aluminum foil. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the rib roast registers 140 degrees (60 degrees C), about 1 hour.

• Let rib roast stand for 10 to 20 minutes before carving.
