Substitutions

• This rib roast recipe is also delicious when prepared with a boneless rib roast in place of the bone-in rib roast

What can I substitute for fresh herbs?

Don't have fresh herbs on hand? You can easily substitute the same herb, dried, but reduce the amount to 1 teaspoon. Simply use:

• 1 Tbs. chopped fresh rosemary OR 1 tsp. dried crushed rosemary
• 1 Tbs. chopped fresh sage leaves or 1 tsp. dried sage
• 1 Tbs. chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1 tsp. dried thyme

How long should I cook a rib roast?

A rib roast should typically cook 15-20 minutes per pound.

Be sure to check the temperature of the roast using a meat thermometer so that it is done to your liking. Here are some guidelines for roasting temperatures:

• 120F -130F Rare (center will be red)
• 130F-135F Medium Rare (center will be pink)
• 135F-145F Medium (center will have some pink)
• 145F-155F Well (a hint of light pink)
• 155F-165F Well Done (mostly brown)

Your roast will continue to cook even after it comes out of the oven.

Take the roast out of the oven when it reaches one of the temperatures listed above and let it stand and rest and so the juices settle.
