| My Passion - Issue 4 - December 2015<br />

I love the Holidays – the decorations, the tree, the gifts, the baking, the special<br />

meals, the surprises for people – I love it all. My parents always made<br />

everything seem magical around the holidays, so I thought it appropriate and<br />

necessary to try and do the same for our family. Rob and I wanted to establish<br />

family traditions and make memories that our children can take with<br />

them all their lives. I have such special memories tucked away in my heart…<br />

and they help make this season so very special to this day.<br />

HERBED PRIME RIB<br />

INGREDIENTS:<br />

2 tbsp dried basil leaves<br />

2 tbsp dried oregano leaves<br />

1 tbsp garlic powder<br />

2 tsp onion powder<br />

1 tsp ground black pepper<br />

1 boneless beef rib roast (5 to 6 lbs.)<br />

1 tbsp oil<br />

1 tsp salt<br />

1. Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl. Set aside. Place roast on rack in shallow roasting<br />

pan; brush beef with oil. Sprinkle with salt; coat with seasoning mixture.<br />

2. Roast, uncovered, in preheated 350 degrees oven until internal temperature reaches 130<br />

degrees for medium-rare (1 ¾ to 2 ¼ hours = 20 to 22 minutes per pound) or 140 degrees<br />

for medium (2 ¼ to 2 ¾ hours=22 to 25). Begin checking internal temperature of roast with<br />

meat thermometer 30 minutes BEFORE estimated end cook time. When desired temperature<br />

is attained, take out of oven; cover with foil and let stand 15 minutes before carving.<br />

Makes 12 to 14 servings
