INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (4 pound) boneless beef rib roast
  • 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram

DIRECTIONS

  1. Cut 15-20 slits in the roast; insert garlic. Combine salt, pepper, basil, parsley and marjoram; rub over roast. Place fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Bake, uncovered at 325 degrees F for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat reaches the desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145 degrees F; medium, 160 degrees F; well-done, 170 degrees F).

Very tasty, only change I made was to add about some paprika to the rub.

Very tasty. Took longer to cook than it was suppose to and I was going for med. rare. Cranked up the heat to 375 towards the end because I was roasting potatoes. That helped. I would use this recipe again at a little higher heat.
