Preparation

Step 1

Place roast, rib ends up, in a large shallow roasting pan; sprinkle with seasoned salt. Cover rib ends with foil. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1-1/2 hours.
For stuffing, in a large skillet, melt butter. Add the mushrooms, onion and celery; saute until tender. Stir in apricots and seasonings. Add bread crumbs; toss to coat.
Carefully spoon stuffing into center of roast. Brush sides of roast with preserves. Bake 45-75 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160°.
Transfer to a warm serving platter. Remove foil. Let roast stand for 10-15 minutes. Cut between ribs to serve.
