Perfect Roast Beef

I have been visiting my best friend, Sue Patrick Richard for 2 weeks in Dallas, Texas and she cooked a standing rib roast for a birthday celebration. I cannot find adequate words to describe how tender, juicy and down right fantastic this roast tasted. This roast cuts so perfectly and everyone raved about the flavor.

Prime Rib, Rump or Rolled Roast
Rub oil over entire roast. Cover with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook uncovered on roasting rack in pre-heated oven (375 degrees) for 1 hour. Do this mid-afternoon. After 1 hour of cooking time, turn oven off. DO NOT OPEN OVEN DOOR.

Before serving time, turn oven on to 300 degrees. For medium beef cool 45-50 minutes and for rare beef cook 30-40 minutes. Make a gravy reduction from the drippings.
