How to Make Standing Rib Roast With Porcini And Bacon Sauce

  1. With a food processor running, add 4 cloves garlic and finely chop.
  2. Scrape down the bowl.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Blend until a smooth paste forms.
  5. Pat the roast dry with paper towels.
  6. Place the roast, bone side down, in a roasting pan.
  7. Cut several shallow slits into the fat cap.
  8. Press some garlic paste into the slits.

  10. Position a rack in the lower third of your oven and preheat to 450°F (232°C).
  11. Roast the beef for 20 minutes.
  12. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C).
  13. Roast until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the thickest part registers 125-130°F (52-54°C) for medium-rare, about 1 hour and 50 minutes. Adjust cooking time based on your desired doneness.
  14. Transfer the roast to a platter and tent loosely with foil.
  15. Reserve the roasting pan with its juices for the porcini and bacon sauce (recipe not included here).
