Instructions
Rub for Rib Roast (1-2 Days Ahead of Eating):
- Pat the meat dry with paper towels. Blend coffee, brown sugar, bourbon, 2 teaspoons salt, and the peppers. Rub all over and into meaty parts of roast. If you're making a bone-in roast, set bone side down on a rimmed baking sheet. For boneless roast, it doesn't matter which side is down. Chill, uncovered, at least 1 and up to 2 days.
Roasting:
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle all over with remaining 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Place shallots beneath V-shaped rack in a roasting pan. Set roast, bone side down (if making bone-in roast), on rack. Roast for 30 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350°F and roast another 30 minutes.
- Remove shallots with tongs and let cool. Keep roasting beef until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of thickest part reaches 130°F for medium-rare, 1 to 1 3/4 hours longer. It takes about 12 minutes per pound to cook a boneless rib roast to medium-rare at this temp. A bone-in roast typically takes 15 minutes per pound.
- Lift to a cutting board and loosely tent with foil, let rest 30 to 40 minutes.
Gravy:
- Squeeze soft insides of roasted shallots into a blender. Add broth, cream, bourbon, and coffee and whirl until smooth.
- Set roasting pan on stovetop and pour gravy into pan. Cook over medium-high heat, scraping up browned bits, until gravy thickens slightly and turns a nutty brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and strain into a serving bowl.
- Slice rib roast meat 1/3 to 1/2 inches thick and if applicable, cut between bones. Serve with gravy.

- For those of you who don't drink alcohol, it will evaporate when you cook the sauce for at least 20 to 30 seconds. Alcohol evaporates at 172°F (78°C), so any sauce or stew that is simmering or boiling is certainly hot enough to evaporate the alcohol. Recipe adapted from Sunset magazine.
