Hubby bought me chocolates from Chocolat Moderne for our 8.5 year wedding anniversary (see my post here), so I made him a steak dinner. That's just how things work in our family.
I like this type of meal because there's minimal prep and everything goes into the oven. It's mainly about timing.
Standing Rib Roast (aka Prime Rib):
Coat with dry mustard, salt and pepper.
Leave at room temperature for 30-45 minutes.
Place into 350 oven for about 2 hours for medium (I had a 4.3 pound roast)
An hour before roast is done scrub potatoes.
Prick with a fork all over (~5 times).
Coat lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary salt.
Place directly on the oven rack and place a pan underneath to catch the juices.
After an hour, remove from oven. Drop on the counter a few times to fluff the inside. Make a cross slit and push open the potato so that the inside pushes up.
Fill with butter and cheese and place in the oven for 2 minutes to melt the cheese.
If I had bacon and sour cream, I would have added those.
Roasted Asparagus and Tomatoes:
10 minutes before roast is done, toss asparagus and tomatoes in olive oil and rosemary salt.
Roast for 7 to 8 minutes so that asparagus is tender but still has a little crunch.
Plate the veggies while the roast is standing. Slice between the bones. Serve and enjoy!
