bbq sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade tomato sauce

💰Cheaper: ketchup

Homemade sauce can reduce sugar and additives.

Take the standing rib roast out and set it on the counter for about 1 hour to reach room temperature.

Season the roast with 1 cup of salt, 1/4 cup of black pepper, and 1/4 cup of garlic powder, coating the outside well.

Place the roast in a roasting pan with the ribs down and fat side up.

Preheat the oven to 375°F and place the roast inside for 1 hour.

After 1 hour, turn the oven off and do not open the door for 3 hours.

After 3 hours, turn the oven back to 375°F for about 45 minutes to warm the meat.

Once done, let the roast rest before making the sauce in the roasting pan.

Skim any excess fat from the pan, then add Mero, stock, butter, and thyme to make the sauce.
