The Best 3 lb standing rib roast recipe

I’ve always been a fan of standing rib roasts, and this 3 lb recipe is no exception. There’s something special about a slow-cooked roast that falls apart at the touch of a fork, and this recipe delivers just that.

The history of standing rib roasts dates back to medieval Europe, where it was a staple dish at banquets and feasts. Over time, the recipe has evolved to include various seasonings and spices, but the core idea remains the same – a deliciously tender and flavorful roast that’s perfect for special occasions or everyday meals.

In my household, we love serving this dish with roasted vegetables and a side of creamy mashed potatoes. The aroma alone is enough to draw everyone to the table.

This recipe is also a great way to get your family involved in cooking – my kids love helping me season the roast and set the timer. It’s a great way to spend quality time together while creating a delicious meal that everyone will enjoy.

🥘Ingredients

For the Roast

3 lb standing rib roast
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp fresh rosemary leaves
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil

For the Pan Sauce

1/4 cup red wine
1 cup beef broth
1 tbsp butter
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp water

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat the oven to 450°F.
2Mix salt, pepper, rosemary, and minced garlic in a small bowl.
3Rub the rib roast with olive oil, then evenly coat with the seasoning mixture.
4Place the roast, fat side up, in a roasting pan.
5Roast the rib roast at 450°F for 20 minutes.
6Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare, approximately 60-70 minutes.
7Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature in the thickest part of the meat.
8Remove the roast from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board.
9Tent it loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
10This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
11While the roast is resting, prepare the pan sauce.
12Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the roasting pan.
13Place the pan on the stove over medium-high heat.
14Add red wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze, releasing any browned bits.
15Cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
16Stir in beef broth and bring to a simmer.
17In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water and add it to the pan.
18Cook until the sauce thickens slightly.
19Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted.
20Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
21Slice the roast against the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices.
22Serve with the pan sauce spooned over the top.
23Enjoy with your favorite side dishes.
