Herbed Rib Roast Weight Watchers Recipes

Steps:

• Cut 15-20 slits in the roast; insert garlic. Tie the roast at 1-1/2-in. to 2-in. intervals with kitchen string. Combine salt, pepper, basil, parsley and marjoram; rub over roast. Place fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat reaches the desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Season roast with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine garlic, mustard, mayonnaise and horseradish. In another small bowl, combine parsley, thyme, dill and 1 tablespoon of mustard mixture.
• Place the beef, rib-bone down, in a roasting pan; coat top with remaining mustard mixture and cook meat until an instant-read thermometer inserted in center of roast registers 110°F Coat roast with remaining mustard mixture and press herb mixture onto mustard with your hands.
• Continue cooking roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the beef registers 140°F for medium, or longer until desired degree of doneness.
• Cover loosely with foil, and let the beef stand 20 to 30 minutes before carving into 12 thick slices. Yields 1 slice per serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Put the rib roast in a large roasting pan and set aside.
• Put the olive oil, rosemary, sage, thyme, salt, pepper and garlic in a food processor and pulse until everything is combined but there are still some chunks of herbs. Rub the mixture all over the roast.
• Roast for 20 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Roast until the internal temperature registers 130 degrees F for medium rare, about 2 hours. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then slice into 1/2- to 1-inch pieces.

Steps:

• Add all chopped ingredents to small clay bowl.
• Drizzle in olive oil as you whisk to form a paste.
• Score the fat side of the roast with a knife and smear the herb paste all over the top.
• Put roast into a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 18 - 20 minutes a pound.
• Red Wine Gravy.
• Remove cooked roast from roasting pan and put on cutting board with well to rest.
• Put roasting pan across two burners of cook top on medium low. (drain any excess grease first)
• When browned bits are nice and hot pour in about 3/4 cup of red wine. Use one you would drink, I used a $3.97 bottle of Lucky Duck Shiraz from Wal-Mart. It is cheap, but good.
• Deglaze the pan with a whisk and cook for several minutes until somewhat concentrated.
• Pour liquid through a sieve to catch any crunchy burned bits. To it pour in about 2 cups of beef or chicken stock. Set liquid aside.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat melt 2-3 tblspns butter. When it bubbles at about 1/4 cup of flour.
• Whisk together and cook about 1 minute.
• Slowly add the liquid from the deglazing until it is smooth and silky.
• Add black pepper and salt to taste.
• Serve with roast and MASHED POTATOES!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F
• In a food processor, combine the butter with the garlic, horseradish, thyme, rosemary and sage and process to a paste.
• Stand the roast in a very large roasting pan.
• Season generously all over with salt and pepper and set it fatty side up.
• Spread the horseradish-herb butter all over the top.
• Bake for about 3 1/2 hours, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125°F for medium rare.
• Transfer the roast to a carving board to rest for at least 20 minutes or for up to 1 hour before serving.
• MAKE AHEAD The horseradish-herb butter can be refrigerated overnight.
• Let the butter soften before using.
• Serve with popovers from recipe #60384 and make with 3 tablespoons of the fat from the roast, french string beans, a nice bread and a sustantial Cabernet Sauvignon; Cabernet's firm tannins help cut the richness of the red meat.

Steps:

• Prepare roast:
• Trim all but a thin layer of fat from roast. Grind peppercorns and bay leaves with salt to a powder in an electric coffee/spice grinder, then transfer to a mortar. Add garlic, thyme, and rosemary, then pound to a smooth paste with pestle. Stir in oil. Rub paste all over roast. Transfer roast to a rack set in a small flameproof roasting pan. Marinate, covered and chilled, at least 8 hours.
• Cook roast:
• Let roast stand at room temperature 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Roast beef in middle of oven 20 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350°F and roast beef until a thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 110°F, 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours more. Transfer beef to a large platter and let stand, uncovered, 25 minutes. (Meat will continue to cook, reaching about 130°F for medium-rare.)
• Make jus:
• Skim fat from pan juices. Add broth, rosemary, thyme, and garlic and deglaze pan by simmering on top of stove over moderate heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits. Transfer to a small saucepan and add any juices that have collected on platter. Gently simmer 10 minutes. Skim fat and season jus with salt and pepper.
• Put slices from roast and serve with jus.
