Horseradish Crusted Prime Rib Roast

Method

1. Preheat oven to 350F
2. Lay beef roast bones down in a large roasting pan - the bones will create a natural roasting rack.
3. In small bowl mash together the garlic, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves, salt, pepper, and olive oil to make a paste. Massage paste evenly over entire roast.
4. Put roasting pan in preheated oven and roast until internal temperature of meat registers 125F (for medium rare), 1.5 to 2 hours. Remove beef to carving board and let rest for 20 minutes before slicing and serving. Once rested slice and serve with sides of your choosing.
5. Using pan drippings, pour into a saucepan and place on stovetop over medium high heat.
6. Add white wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up brown bits on bottom of pan, simmer until wine is reduced by about half.
7. Whisk in flour, add beef broth and continue to cook, whisking constantly until sauce thickens into a gravy, about 10 minutes
8. For even more flavour, you can apply the paste to the roast the night before, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and keep in refrigerator overnight. Be sure to bring to room temperature before placing into pre heated oven.
