Roast Ribeye Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 4-5 lbs ribeye roast (bone-in or boneless, your choice)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions:

  1. Preparation:

    • Remove the ribeye roast from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 1 hour before cooking. This helps it cook more evenly.
    • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

  2. Seasoning:

    • In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, olive oil, salt, and pepper. If you want to use Dijon mustard, mix it in as well.
    • Rub this mixture all over the ribeye roast, ensuring it's well coated.

  3. Roasting:

    • Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan. This allows air to circulate around the roast and helps it cook evenly.
    • Put the roast in the preheated oven and roast at 450°F (230°C) for the first 15 minutes to develop a nice crust.
    • After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue roasting.
    • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, aim for 130°F (54°C); for medium, aim for 140°F (60°C).

  4. Resting:

    • Once the roast reaches your desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

  5. Slicing and Serving:

    • After resting, slice the roast against the grain into thick slices.
    • Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.

Tips:

  • For added flavor, you can marinate the roast overnight with the seasoning mixture.
  • To enhance the presentation, consider garnishing the dish with fresh herbs before serving.

Enjoy your delicious roast ribeye!
