THE MELTING POT

Posted on Updated on

Prime Rib Roast

This huge cut of meat is hard to come by in the meat shops but you can get it at Bengal Meat outlets if you pre-order. Prime ribs are loaded with flavour and tastes best slow cooked. It’s best to use a meat thermometer for roasting so you get your desired doneness.
Ingredients

THE MELTING POT

3 tsp fresh ginger root, grated
1/3 cup orange marmalade
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp hot pepper sauce
1 tbsp mustard powder
1 (8 pound) prime rib roast
1/4 cup olive oil
Ground black pepper to taste
Method
Mix together the ginger, marmalade, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, hot sauce, and mustard. Prick holes all over the roast with a two-pronged fork. Pour marinade over roast. Cover, and refrigerate for at least two hours, basting at least twice.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place roast on a wire rack in a roasting pan. If you don’t have a wire rack, place the rib fat side up so that the rib bones are touching the tray. Pour about 1 cup of marinade into the roasting pan, and discard remaining marinade. Pour olive oil over roast, and season with freshly ground black pepper. Insert a roasting thermometer into the middle of the roast, making sure that the thermometer does not touch any bone. Cover roasting pan with aluminium foil, and seal edges tightly around pan.
Cook roast for one hour in the preheated oven. After the first hour, remove the aluminium foil. Baste, reduce heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and continue roasting for one more hour. The thermometer reading should be at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium rare, and 170 degrees F (76 degrees C) for well done. Remove roasting pan from oven, place aluminium foil over roast, and let rest for about 30 minutes before slicing.

Heat charcoal grill or grill to a medium heat and grill to your liking. Don’t overcook otherwise the meat will get chewy.
