  • to taste freshly ground black pepper

  • 2 tbsp fresh thyme chopped
For the Creamy Horseradish Sauce

  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Equipment

  • Sharp carving knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Basting brush

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Step 2: Pat the rib roast dry with paper towels. Rub the entire surface of the roast with olive oil. Generously season it with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then sprinkle with chopped rosemary and thyme.
  3. Step 3: Place the seasoned rib roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  4. Step 4: After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, which could take 1.5 to 2 hours.
  5. Step 5: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.
  6. Step 6: In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
  7. Step 7: Carve the roast against the grain into thick slices and serve with the creamy horseradish sauce on the side.

Notes

Always use a meat thermometer to avoid undercooking or overcooking your roast. Letting the meat rest is crucial for maintaining juiciness.
