Ingredients

• 8-pound standing rib roast (or boneless – times will vary)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 6 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
• 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
• 1.5 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
• Olive oil spray
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2/3 cup Pinot Noir (good quality)

Preparation

1. Let the roast sit at room temperature for 1 to 1.5 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to 400°F and spray a roasting rack with cooking spray.
3. In a mini food processor, pulse the garlic cloves until minced. Add thyme, rosemary, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. Pulse until combined.
4. Trim excess fat from the roast and season with salt and pepper. Rub the Dijon mixture evenly over the roast.
5. Place the roast on the rack in a large roasting pan. Insert an oven-safe thermometer into the thickest part. Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F without opening the door and cook for another 30 minutes. Remove the roast, pour 2 cups of beef broth into the pan, and return to the oven until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare.
6. Transfer the roast to a carving board, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 15-20 minutes.
7. For the au jus, pour the drippings into a saucepan. Add Pinot Noir and simmer for 6 minutes until reduced to 3/4 cup.
8. Remove strings and bones from the roast. Slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and serve with the au jus.
