Prime Rib with horseradish sauce

By GmaJan12

Ingredients

• HORSERADISH SAUCE:
• 1 bone-in beef rib roast (4 to 6 pounds)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 to 2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
• 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
• 3 to 4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
• 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Brush roast with oil; rub with pepper. Place roast, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 450° for 15 minutes.

Reduce heat to 325°. Bake for 2-3/4 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°), basting with pan drippings every 30 minutes.

Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients. Serve with beef.

Yield: 6-8 servings.
