1 head garlic, halved

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lay the beef in a
large roasting pan with the bone side down. (The ribs act as a natural roasting
rack.)

In a small bowl mash together the garlic, horseradish, rosemary, thyme, salt,
pepper, and olive oil to make a paste. Massage the paste generously over the
entire roast. Scatter the vegetables around the meat and drizzle them with a
2-count of oil. Put the pan in the oven and roast the beef for about 1 1/2 to 2
hours for medium-rare (or approximately 20 minutes per pound). Check the internal
temperature of the roast in several places with an instant-read thermometer; it
should register 125 degrees F. for medium-rare. Remove the beef to a carving board

and let it rest for 20 minutes. The internal temperature of the meat will continue
to rise by about 10 degrees. Remove the vegetables and set aside. Pour the pan
juices into a fat separator or small bowl and set aside to allow the fat and beef
juices to separate. Pour off and discard the fat. You can use the tasty beef
juices for Sauteed Mushrooms.
