Prime Rib Roast with Sun-Dried Tomatoes Recipe

The night before roasting, place rib roast on a cutting board. Season generously with salt and pepper. Slather butter on meaty part of the roast. Transfer to a roasting pan. Chill overnight.

Let roast come to room temperature for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to its highest temperature setting (about 480?F).

Once roast has warmed to room temperature, place in oven. Roast rib roast for 48 minutes (or 12 minutes per kilogram, rounded up). Turn off heat, and let oven cool with roast still inside.

Once cooled, transfer roast to a cutting board, and carve for serving.

Meanwhile, make the Au Jus: Transfer drippings from roast to a frying pan. Whisk in pesto and rosemary, then sprinkle in flour. Pour in stock. Cook while stiirring until slightly thickened. Serve with roast.
