Select a Standing Rib Roast. Place fat side up in Dutch Oven. Do not add water; do not cover; do not baste. Roast in moderate oven, 325°F.
Rare 18-20 minutes per pound
Medium 22-25 minutes per pound

For sure results use a meat thermometer. Insert it in the thickest part of the roast, being sure that the bulb does not rest on fat or bone. Use the time periods above as a guide. Remove the roast from the oven when the thermometer reading is “rare,” “medium,” or “well-done,” as you prefer.
