Fantastic Roast
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have never cooked a standing rib before and, like others, was a little nervous about this recipe. I had a 10 lb. roast. ... The butcher removed the ribs, but tied them back on for roasting. I cooked mine 65 minutes the first time and reheated it for 25. It was rare in the middle, but I sliced it and returned it to the broiler for a few minutes to cook a little more. It was delicious!!! Leftovers-great!! The only probkem I had was it splattered my oven so badly that when I opened the oven smoke came pouring out and filled the kitchen. I had reviewed all of the comments before and no one mentioned covering the roast or having this problem. I don't think I will do it again without a cover of foil. Thank goodness for a self cleaning oven. Let me know if you had this problem.Read more

I want to try this recipe, but my concern is when you turn the oven back on it goes through preheating cycle, will it... overcook the roast? Read more

Just terrific
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have never made a Standing Rib Roast before and was quite nervous about cooking one. I got this recipe and got a trial Rib... Roast to make before my dinner party. My parents (my worst critics) raved over it. I made it for my dinner party and everyone just loved it. Thanks for the recipe Paula. I just love you!!!Read more

Foolproof for sure!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I tired this recipe today for the rib roast we had for Easter and I must admit it is by far the easiest and most succulent... way of cooking the roast. This isn't the first roast I have prepared, but it is the best. Mine was a little over 8# and even though the directions were not specific on the second cooking time after you turn back on the oven, I used a thermometer to get the perfect rare that I love. Thanks Paula!Read more
