Best Ribeye Roast Recipe
Description
The recipe begins by preheating the oven to 450°F and preparing the ribeye roast by coating it with melted butter followed by a mix of minced garlic, kosher salt, and Italian seasoning. This initial high-heat roasting creates a seared crust that locks in juices. After 15 minutes, the temperature is lowered to 325°F for slow, even cooking. Roasting time is about 20 minutes per pound, adjusted by checking internal temperature to reach rare, medium-rare, or well-done levels.
Once out of the oven, resting the roast covered with foil allows juices to redistribute, preventing dryness. Slicing across the grain produces tender cuts. This hearty main is ideal for special occasions or a satisfying meal featuring the depth of roasted garlic and herb flavors.
Ingredients
- 5 lb ribeye roast
- 4 tbsp butter for brushing, melted
- 2 tablespoons garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Place roast in a shallow roasting pan with the fatty side up.
- Cover ribeye roast with melted butter.
- Combine garlic, salt, and seasonings in a small bowl.
- Cover roast with the herbs and seasonings.
- Place roast in roasting pan into your oven for 15 minutes at 450 degrees.
- After 15 minutes, reduce heat to 325ºF and continue roasting for approximately 2 hours (approximately 20 minutes per pound of ribeye). Use a thermometer or digital cooking probe to test the ribeye and continue to cook to the desired internal temperature (see below).
- For rare ribeye roast, the in-oven temperature should be 110-115 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium rare to medium ribeye roast, the in-oven temperature should be 120 to 125 degrees Fahrenheit. For well-done ribeye roast, the in-oven temperature should be 130 to 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Transfer roast to cutting board or cooling rack and tent with foil and let rest 15-30 minutes.
- Slice across the grain to serve.
