Thanks! I've always cut slits into the roast and inserted slivers of
garlic all over. Pat the roast well with salt & pepper and turn the
oven on high (500F). Roast for an hour, then turn off the oven. Leave
it, don't open the oven door. Turn it back on a couple of hours later
at 375F and roast for another hour and a half-2 hours (depending on the
weight of the roast). It comes out rare in the middle graduating to
med-rare and then well done on the ends. My mom cut this out of a
newspaper article around 1975. Works every time for a 5-7 lb. standing
rib roast.
