Cooking Method
Roast
- Remove ribeye roast from fridge at least 2 hours before cooking to bring up to room temperature.
- Weigh your roast and calculate cooking time (see Estimated Cooking Time).
- Preheat oven to 450ºF. Season meat well.
- Place onions, garlic bulbs and herbs in the base of a roasting pan to form a roasting bed.
- Cover all surfaces of the roast with around ¾ of the herb butter, ensuring a generous layer on top. Reserve the rest of the butter for later.
- Place meat on top of roasting bed and cook on high heat for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and spread remaining butter over roast. Reduce temperature to 250ºF.
- Roast for approximately 2 hours or until a meat thermometer reaches 122ºF for medium-rare or 127ºF for medium. Leave approximately 15 minutes longer if you prefer a more well-done roast. Baste meat every 30 mins with pan juices while cooking.
- Transfer meat to a plate, cover loosely with tinfoil and rest for at least 30 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Herb Butter
- Soften butter, ensuring it doesn’t melt.
- Blitz all other ingredients in a small food processor on pulse.
- Gradually add the softened butter and pulse to combine
Enjoy!
