Ingredients

For the roast beef:

2 to 2.5 kg (4 to 5 lb) prime rib roast or beef roast of your choice
8 tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 tbsp Roast Beef Rub A Spice Affair
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt A Spice Affair
1 tsp Black Pepper Ground A Spice Affair

For the potatoes:

8 medium potatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp melted butter
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp parsley, chopped
1 tsp Herbs of Provence A Spice Affair or Greek Herbs A Spice Affair
1 tsp Lemon Pepper A Spice Affair
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
1/4 tsp Himalayan Pink Salt A Spice Affair

Preparation

1

Prepare the potatoes

Cut thin slits (about 1/8 inch apart) into the potatoes without cutting all the way through. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, melted butter, garlic, parsley, Herbs of Provence A Spice Affair or Greek Herbs A Spice Affair, Lemon Pepper A Spice Affair, lemon juice, honey and salt.
2

Roast the potatoes

Place the potatoes in a roasting pan and brush with 2/3 of the dressing mixture, reserving 1/3 for basting. Bake in a preheated 450°F (230°C) oven for 1 hour, or until tender and crispy, basting halfway through.
3

Season the roast

Line a baking tray or skillet. In a small bowl, combine the butter, Roast Beef Rub A Spice Affair, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper until smooth. Use a spatula to spread the butter mixture over the entire roast.
4

Roast the beef

Roast uncovered in the oven at 450°F (230°C) for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 325°F (160°C) and roast for another 1 hour 45 minutes (about 15 minutes per lb).
5

Rest and serve

Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate. Let rest for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. Serve with the lemon herb potatoes. Enjoy!
