Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Set a rack inside a shallow roasting pan.
-
Brush rib roast lightly with olive oil, then rub sea salt, pepper, and garlic all over. Place onto the rack with the fatty side facing up.
-
Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and tent the pan with aluminum foil. Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the rib roast registers 140 degrees (60 degrees C) for medium, about 1 hour (or 15 minutes per pound if your roast is a different size).
-
Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 to 20 minutes, then remove the foil and carve.
