Ingredients
- 1 (4-5 pound) beef rib roast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup red wine (optional)

Season the Roast: Rub the garlic-herb paste all over the beef rib roast, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Roast: Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce
the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C) and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches
your desired doneness (about 20 minutes per pound for medium-rare).
Rest: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for at least 15-20 minutes before carving to allow

the juices to redistribute.
Optional Gravy: While the roast is resting, you can make a simple gravy. Place the roasting pan on
the stovetop over medium heat. Add the beef broth and red wine (if using), and stir to deglaze the
pan, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until the liquid reduces by half, then strain the gravy into
a serving dish.
