How to roast a rib of beef
A three or four bone rib of beef is an expensive but incredibly delicious luxury, perfect for a family celebration or a Christmas meal. Ask your butcher to trim and tie your beef to save time before you start cooking. It's crucial that the meat is at room temperature before roasting so that it cooks evenly throughout, so remove the beef from the fridge about an hour before cooking to get it up to temperature.

Variations
To add extra flavour to the beef try garnishing with herbs such as thyme and rosemary or cloves of garlic when roasting in the oven. You could also rub with beef with butter before cooking for extra richness.
