Rib Roast Recipe (with Horseradish Sauce)
Description
The Rib Roast Recipe begins by preparing a rub of vegetable oil, minced garlic, and coarsely ground peppercorns, which is pressed onto a salt-seasoned 6-pound bone-in ribeye roast. The roast is cooked in a 350°F oven for approximately two and a half hours until the internal temperature reaches the desired doneness. Resting the meat before slicing allows juices to redistribute resulting in a tender texture.
The accompanying horseradish sauce balances the richness of the beef with whipped cream, finely chopped fresh fennel bulb and fronds, and freshly grated horseradish seasoned with salt. This sauce offers a creamy texture with a piquant note from the horseradish and mild anise flavor from the fennel.
This roast serves well for a special dinner or holiday meal and can be served with traditional sides. The horseradish sauce can be prepared ahead, chilled, and served alongside to enhance the roast’s flavor.
Ingredients
Rib Roast
- 6 lb ribeye roast bone-in
- 3 tbsp salt
- 2 tbsp mixed peppercorns black, white, green and pink, coarsely ground
- 1 tbsp garlic minced
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
Horseradish Sauce
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 3 tbsp fennel bulb finely chopped, fresh
- 3 tbsp horseradish finely grated, fresh
- 1 tbsp fennel fronds finely chopped, fresh
- 1/8 tsp salt
Instructions
Making Rib Roast
- Heat the oven to 350 °F. Prepare the ingredients for the roast rub by combining the oil, garlic, and pepper together in a bowl.
- Rub the beef roast generously with salt on all sides. Press the seasonings evenly into the roast.
- Place the beef roast in a baking dish or pan with the fat side up. Insert an ovenproof meat thermometer into the thickest part of the beef, making sure it's not touching the bone. Roast for about 2 1/2 hours (refer to doneness temperature in blog post notes above.)
- Once the roast is removed from the oven, lightly cover it with foil and let it rest for at least 15 minutes. Serve it with your favorite sides.
Horseradish Sauce
- Prepare the ingredients for the horseradish sauce. Peel and grate the horseradish, finely dice the fennel bulb, and chop fresh fennel fronds.
- Whisk the whipping cream until you get soft peaks. Add in the horseradish, fennel bulb, and fennel fronds. Season with salt.
- Place the sauce in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
