Rib-Eye Roast

We love using a homemade rub, any store
bought one will do. You can even use salt,
pepper and fresh herbs.
Setting: Roast
Makes 12 to 15 servings
1 boneless rib-eye roast, tied
(about 4 pounds [1.8 Kg])
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
3 tablespoons (45 ml) steak and
roast rub (previous recipe)
1. Rub roast all over with the olive oil and
the rub. Place in a stainless steel mixing
bowl or a sealable plastic bag to
marinate in the refrigerator for at least
3 hours and up to overnight.
2. Insert the roasting rack into the cooking
pot of the Cuisinart ® Multicooker and
put the marinated roast on top. Set to
Roast at 425°F (220°C) for 1½ hours.
Check the roast after 1 hour and 10
minutes – the internal temperature
should read 130°F (55°C) for medium
rare. Let meat rest 10 to 15 minutes
before slicing.
*Note: If you have the time, we
recommend browning the ribeye prior
to roasting. Do this on Brown/Sauté at
400°F (200°C) before roasting.
