Rib Eye Roast - Pink in the Middle

Rub the rib eye all over with pepper and place it in a shallow pan

Preheat the oven to 500°

When the oven is hot, put the roast in the oven and close the door

Do not open the door for 2 hours, then the roast is ready to serve

The roast should be cooked 5 minutes a pound at 500°, then the heat should be turned off

If the roast weighs 8 pounds, you cook the roast 40 minutes and turn the oven off

From the time you start the roast until it is ready to slice the time is 2 hours

Pour part of the fat out of the pan and add some water and salt for a delicious natural gravy

The roast will be pink in the middle every time

You may want to cook your roast for 6 minutes per pound if you do not like it quite as pink.
