Back to recipe

Ingredients

For the roast:

  • 6-8 pounds, 3-bone center cut choice rib roast, well-trimmed of fat and tail cap, Angus if possible
  • 2-3 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon coarse ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons P.S. Flavor!? Porcini Pepper (or your favorite mushroom spice blend)
  • Yukon Gold and Sweet Potato Boulanger (optional, see recipe)

For the horseradish sauce:

  • 1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon P.S. Flavor!? Creole Kitchen, or your favorite Creole seasoning
  • 2 cups plain nonfat Greek yogurt, such as Fage
  • 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon P.S. Flavor!? Porcini Pepper (or your favorite mushroom spice blend)
  • 2 tablespoons minced flat leaf parsley

Directions

Roast the meat:

  1. Heat oven to 425 F.
  2. Line a sheet pan or roasting pan with foil; fit a rack in the pan to lift roast off surface.
  3. Season the roast with kosher salt (1 tablespoons for the bones, 1-2 tablespoons for the meat, don’t do much on the ends) and coarse ground pepper. When well covered with salt and pepper, rub the meat part and end part of roast with Porcini Pepper.
  4. If serving with Yukon Gold and Sweet Potato Boulangère (see recipe), roast for 1 ½ hours; remove from oven, and transfer rack from sheet pan and set on top of potatoes. Roast for another ½ hour or until internal temperature reaches 120 F. If serving without the Yukon Gold and Sweet Potato Boulangère, roast for 2 hours until internal temperature reaches 120 F.
  5. Let standing rib roast rest for 1/2 hour. If serving with potatoes, cover potatoes with foil to keep warm.

Make the horseradish sauce:

  1. Heat small sauté pan over medium high, add olive oil and minced garlic, and warm garlic in olive oil for 15-20 seconds; stir in Creole seasoning and remove from pan immediately to cool in a medium sized bowl.
  2. Whisk in all remaining ingredients. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  3. Serve roast with horseradish sauce.
