Healthy Beef Recipes - The Noble Beef Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 pounds beef standing rib roast

• 1/4 cup oil

Serves 6

---

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 550°F.

2. Have the beef at room temperature, and rub it all over with the oil. Put it on a rack in a roasting pan, fatty side up. Stick a meat thermometer in it, deep in the center, but not touching a bone.

3. Put the roast in the oven, and immediately turn the heat down to 350°F. Beef generally takes about 20 minutes per pound to come out medium-rare, so figure on about 1 hour and 20 minutes to cook this roast. Check that meat thermometer.

4. When the thermometer reads between 140° (rare) and 160°F (almost well-done), take it out, put it on a platter in a warm place, and let it sit for a bit while you bake the Yorkshire pudding.
