Hi, I'd like to ask some advice on a 3 1/2 lb boneless rib roast...

I cook fairly successfully, a 12lb prime rib by searing the outside first,
then cooking it at 200 for 6 hours... (30min p/lb).

Can I apply that same technique to the smaller, boneless rib roast??? I
tend to think yes, but thought I better double check! Thank you!

Hey Unc!

I cooked boneless rib roast for Christmas day 30 min p 500g (same
difference!!) came out perfect, but did not need to sear first.

We let our 6 lb. roast sit out of the refrigerator for an hour before
putting it in the oven. W did not sear it. It took our 3 hours at 225
degrees (convection) (or 30 min. per pound) to get to an internal temp.
of 130 degrees. We then removed it from the oven to rest for 30 minutes
before slicing. It was medium rare (pink throughout) and delicious.

Sure, it you like yours done that way. I happen to like the outside to have
a nice bark so we start out at 450 for 15 minutes. Comes down to personal
taste.
