    First, let's talk about the cut of meat. A beef rib roast is a cut from the rib section of the cow and is known for its rich flavor and tenderness. It's a great option for a special occasion or Sunday dinner.

    To make the dish Paleo-friendly, we'll be using a homemade horseradish and herb crust. Instead of using breadcrumbs, as some recipes suggest, this one focuses on just the flavor of the herbs and beef. The horseradish adds a nice kick of heat, while the herbs bring a freshness to the dish.

    While the roast is cooking, you can prepare any side dishes you'd like to serve with it. Some great options would be roasted cauliflower with bacon, roasted acorn squash, or a salad.

    Beef Rib Roast with Horseradish and Herbs

    This Paleo beef rib roast with horseradish and herbs is a perfect option for those who follow a Paleo diet. The flavors of the horseradish and herbs complement the beef perfectly, making for a delicious and healthy dinner option.

    Serves: 12 Prep Time: 30 minutes Cook Time: 3 hours 30 minutes

    Ingredients

    • 1 (16lb) bone-in prime rib roast (approximately 6 ribs)
    • 8 cloves garlic
    • 1 cup prepared horseradish
    • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
    • 3 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves
    • 3 tablespoons fresh sage
    • ½ lb beef tallow, butter, or ghee
    • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 cups chicken broth
    • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

    How to Make a Paleo Beef Rib Roast

    Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F and lining a roasting pan with aluminum foil, if desired, for easier cleanup.

    Then you will prepare the horseradish and herb purée by blending tallow or butter with horseradish, garlic, sage, thyme, and rosemary in a food processor until smooth.

    Place the roast, fat side up, in a roasting pan and generously season it with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    Spread the horseradish and herb purée evenly over the roast.

    Place the roasting pan in the oven, and cook for approximately 3 and a half hours, or until the center of the roast reaches a temperature of 125 degrees Fahrenheit. If your roast is a different weight, refer to the cooking time chart.

    As the roast cooks, baste it occasionally to keep it moist.

    Once the roast is finished cooking, let it rest for about 20 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring that each slice is juicy and tender.
