Sunday Rib Roast
- 1 (2-rib) tied prime beef rib roast (from small end; about 4 1/2 lb trimmed)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tablespoons English dry mustard (preferably Colman's)
- Accompaniment:
- an instant-read thermometer
- Put oven rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 450u0b0F.
- Put beef, fat side up, in a small roasting pan and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Stir together flour and dry mustard, then pat onto top and sides of roast to form a thick coating.
- Roast beef 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350u0b0F and roast until thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 115u0b0F, about 1 1/4 hours more. Transfer beef to a cutting board and let stand, uncovered, 25 minutes. Meat will eventually reach 125u0b0F (medium-rare).
