How to Make a Simple Rib-eye Roast:

A rib-eye roast is a delicious and impressive centerpiece for any meal. This simple recipe provides a foolproof way to achieve a juicy and flavorful roast.

Ingredients:

* 1 (3-4 lbs) rib-eye roast, bone-in or boneless

* 1 tbsp olive oil

* 1 tsp salt

* 1/2 tsp black pepper

* 1/4 cup dry red wine (optional)

* 1 tbsp fresh rosemary (optional)

Equipment:

* Large skillet or Dutch oven

* Meat thermometer

* Cutting board

* Large serving platter

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Prepare the roast: Pat the roast dry with paper towels. Rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Add rosemary if desired.

3. Sear the roast: Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides for about 3-4 minutes per side, creating a nice crust.

4. Roast in the oven: Transfer the roast to a roasting pan or baking sheet. Add a splash of red wine to the bottom of the pan if desired.

5. Roast until desired doneness: Roast for 15-20 minutes per pound for medium-rare, 20-25 minutes per pound for medium, or 25-30 minutes per pound for medium-well.

* Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.

* Medium-rare: 130-135°F (54-57°C)

* Medium: 140-145°F (60-63°C)

* Medium-well: 150-155°F (65-68°C)

6. Rest the roast: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute and prevent the roast from becoming dry.

7. Serve: Carve the roast thinly and serve with your favorite sides.

Tips:

* Trim the excess fat: Trim most of the fat off the roast before searing, leaving just a thin layer for flavor.

* Use a meat thermometer: This is the most accurate way to determine doneness.

* Don't overcook: Overcooked roast will be dry and tough.

* Make gravy: Use the pan drippings to make a delicious gravy.

* Serve with sides: Pair the roast with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or your favorite sides.

Enjoy your delicious rib-eye roast!
