Cooking a rib roast in the oven can create a delicious meal! First, you'll want to season the roast with salt, pepper, and any herbs you like, then let it come to room temperature. Preheat your oven to around 450°F (232°C), roast for about 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 325°F (163°C) and continue cooking until it reaches your desired doneness. Do you have a special occasion in mind for this roast, or is it just a nice treat for yourself?
