Rib Roast with Roasted Garlic Sauce





Serves 8
An ultra delicious and irresistible dish that's great for special occasions.
Ingredients:
| 8 lbs. prime beef rib roast, 3 to 4 ribs; trimmed | 
| 1 tablespoon vegetable oil | 
| 2 heads garlic | 
| 3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped | 
| 1/4 cup shallot, minced | 
| 2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar | 
| 2 cup dry red wine | 
| 1 bay leaf | 
| 4 cup beef broth | 
| 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened | 
| 2 tablespoon flour | 
| Salt, to taste | 
| Pepper, to taste | 
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 475° F.
 - Put roast, ribs side down, in center of a 13- by 9-inch roasting pan and rub all with 1/2 tablespoon oil. Cut about 1/2 inch from tops of garlic heads to expose cloves and discard tops. Rub cut sides of garlic and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons thyme, pressing to adhere. Season beef generously with salt and pepper. Put garlic heads in a double layer of foil and drizzle with remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil. Wrap garlic tightly in foil.
 - Roast beef in middle of oven for 30 minutes. Remove beef from oven and with a baster skim all but about 1/2 cup liquids from pan. Reserve removed liquids in a small bowl. Baste beef with remaining liquids in roasting pan. Reduce temperature to 375° F.
 - Place foil wrapped garlic in with the roast. Return roasting pan to oven and cook for additional 90 minutes. Remove roasting pan from oven. Transfer garlic to a cooling rack and transfer beef to a platter, reserving pan juices. Let beef stand 25 minutes.
 - While beef is standing, remove all but about 2 tablespoons of liquid from roasting pan. (Add removed liquid to the small bowl with other removed liquid.) Transfer the 2 tablespoons of liquid to a small pan. Add shallot to pan and turn stove top burner to medium heat, cook shallot in pan for 2 minutes. Unwrap garlic. Squeeze roasted garlic into shallot mixture and discard skins. Add vinegar, wine, bay leaf, and remaining thyme, boil mixture. Stir mixture and mash garlic with a wooden spatula against bottom of pan, until reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes.
 - In a small bowl mash together butter and flour. Combine reserved liquid from small bowl to the garlic mixture. Stir together and boil sauce until reduced to about 2 cups. Whisk the butter and flour mixture into the broth mixture and cook for 3 minutes. (Sauce is smooth and slightly thickened.) Pour sauce through a fine sieve into a bowl, removed the solids. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
 - Cut rib roast into slices, serve with sauce and enjoy!
