Prime Rib Roast

rib roast (allow 1 lb of meat per person)

brown sugar

minced garlic

rock salt

pepper

Rub brown sugar and garlic on all parts of roast. Rub rock salt and pepper all over. Place, uncovered, fat-side-up, in a roasting pan. Bake at 325 degrees to desired doneness. Let stand 15 minutes to firm meat before carving.

For rare, 30-32 minutes per pound.

For medium, 34-37 miutes per pound.

For well done, 39-42 minutes per pound.

A New York roast will cook in about half the time due to the shape.
