Quotes Love Quotes Love Quotes Love Quotes Life Quotes Life Quotes From Nita Holleman via Rae in Minnesota Rib Roast with au Jus Sauce a La Nita 1 "2 or 3 rib" prime-rib beef roast (4 1/2 - 6 pounds) 5 or 6 cloves fresh garlic, crushed, peeled Fresh or dried Rosemary, basil, thyme Salt Black pepper 2 Tablespoons Kitchen Bouquet Browning Sauce Oil, butter or bacon drippings 2 carrots, scraped and cut in chunks 2 potatoes, peeled and cut in chunks 1 Vidalia or sweet type onion, peeled, cut in half 2 cups table quality Red wine OR, 1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar, plus 1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar, plus 1 1/2 cups table quality Red wine or, 1 Knorr beef bouillon cube dissolved in 1 1/2 cups hot water 2 Tablespoons Dark Brown sugar 1/4 to 1/2 cup beef drippings 2 additional Tablespoons Kitchen Bouquet Browning Sauce 2 tablespoons chopped parsley Buy a prime, or top choice roast (preferably ribs 12 through 10.) Have the chine/backbone trimmed off. [Your dog might appreciate these.] Rib bones look best if shortened and "frenched" if it is possible to get a butcher to do this. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a small bowl combine herbs, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, Kitchen Bouquet and oil to form a glaze or paste. Smear mixture over roast. Poke garlic cloves in various places in or under fat of roast. Place roast, fat side up in center of oven on a rack in a large roasting pan and roast for about 20 minutes at the high heat. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Lay a piece of heavy duty foil loosely over the roast to prevent overbrowning. Place vegetables in pan around roast and drizzle them with drippings, butter or oil. Cook beef for approximately 12 minutes per pound for medium-rare. Check the temperature of the roast deep in the center of the roast or in several places with a meat thermometer. It should register 120 to 125 degrees F. for medium rare. Remove roast and allow to "rest" for 20 minutes to prevent loosing juices when it is carved. Note: The temperature inside the roast will continue rising about 10 degrees. Remove vegetables and set them aside. Pour pan drippings and juices off and separate the fat and juices with a fat separator if you have one so you can use the broth for the "au jus" and save the fat for Yorkshire pudding or another use. Place the roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add the wine or other liquids and scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add sugar, beef drippings, Kitchen Bouquet, reserved vegetables and parsley. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook until wine is reduced about 50%, or about 5 minutes. Strain sauce through cheesecloth or a strainer to remove solids before serving. This sauce is the "au jus" you want to serve HOT with the sliced beef either on it or as a "dipping sauce." Nita's Note: 1 or 2 Tablespoons Arrowroot dissolved in 1 or 2 Tablespoons cold water added to the sauce will thicken somewhat and enrich the sauce. Do NOT boil sauce after adding the Arrowroot. Serves 4 to 7 depending on size of roast Insurance Quotes Funny Quotes Funny Quotes Funny Quotes Friendship Quotes Friendship Quotes Friendship Quotes Famous Quotes Famous Quotes Famous Quotes Famous Quotations Famous Quotations Famous Quotations Cute Quotes Cute Quotes Cute Quotes Car Quotes Car Quotes Car Quotes Thanksgiving Quotes Thanksgiving Quotes Thanksgiving Quotes Christmas Quotes Christmas Quotes Christmas Quotes Inspirational Quotes Inspirational Quotes Inspirational Quotes Motivational Quotes Motivational Quotes Motivational Quotes Zig Ziglar Quotes/ Stock Quotes Movie Quotes Movie Quotes Movie Quotes
