Updated at: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 09:50:14 GMT

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 260°C (500°F)

Step 2

Combine the butter, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic in a medium bowl and stir together until smooth.

Step 3

Place the rib roast on a rack set in a roasting pan. Using your hands, rub the herb butter all over the roast. Bake the for 5 minutes per 1lb, until the outside is golden brown and crisp, 25 to 35 minutes for medium-rare, depending on the weight of your roast. Without opening the oven, turn off the heat and let the roast stand in the oven for exactly 2 hours.

Step 4

Transfer the roast to a cutting board. Remove the rack from the pan and pour the pan drippings into a small saucepan.

Step 5

To make a slurry, whisk the flour into the stock until there are no lumps. Set the saucepan over medium need to thicken up a gravy, soup, stew, or sauce. By creating a slurry, you avoid the lumps you’d get if you added the powdery dry stuff straight to a larger amount of liquid. Just make sure that once you add the slurry to your recipe you thoroughly cook the mixture for several minutes to eliminate the raw taste of the thickener
