    Crown Rib Roast

    What is Crown Rib Roast?

    Crown rib roast is two rib racks of beef, pork, or lamb with the loin attached.

    The racks are bent into a circular shape to form a circle and held together with twine. This creates a crown shape with the tips of the bones frenched and facing upward.

    Where Do I Find a Crown Rib Roast?

    If you have a butcher or meat department at your local grocery you will likely need to special order one with advance notice.

    When I called our local grocery, they stated they could prepare one with 24 hours notice and it would cost $12.99/lb for a 20-22 lb roast.

    We were not looking to have a roast that large and other groceries did not offer them at all. We found a web site that delivers 12-14 pound roasts: DeBragga.

    The roast arrived already arranged in a crown and was packed with ice packs. I am not affiliated with them in any way but personally recommend their roast.

    Seasoning

    I mixed my own dry rub for the roast with classic flavors of thyme and rosemary. There are a variety of flavors you can use and are not limited to these:

    • Thyme
    • Rosemary
    • Seasoned Salt
    • Black Pepper

    Some prefer to rub their roast with olive oil first or rub with garlic cloves while others prefer sage instead of rosemary.

    Cooking a Crown Rib Roast

    • Place the crown rib roast in a roasting pan big enough that the sides do not touch.
    • Cook the roast in the oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees Fahrenheit.
    • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature in the thickest part of the meat.
    • Ensure the meat thermometer does not touch bone when you check the temperature.

    Pork Internal Temperature

    Medium-Rare: 145-150 Degrees Fahrenheit

    Medium: 150-155 Degrees Fahrenheit,

    Medium-Well: 155-160 Degrees Fahrenheit

    Well-Done: 165 Degrees Fahrenheit

    How Many Servings Per Person

    Depending on how thick each chop is, it can vary.

    In the 13.3 lbs roast prepared in the photos, 1 chop per person was a decent proportion. Each chop was about 2 inches thick.

    Ingredients

    • ~ 13 lb Pork Crown Rib Roast, frenched tips
    • 1 tbsp Freshly Chopped Thyme, or 1 tsp dried
    • 1 tbsp Freshly Chopped Rosemary, or 1 tsp dried
    • 2 tsp Seasoned Salt

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the oven rack on the bottom third of the oven.
    • Mix together dry seasonings and rub the mixture around the outside and bottom of the roast. Place the roast in a roasting pan. Cover the tips of the bones with foil to prevent scorching.
    • Place the roast in the oven. For a 13 pound roast, cook approximately 3 hours 30 minutes. Cook until internal temperature reaches 150 degrees Fahrenheit using a meat thermometer. Be careful not to touch the bones and insert it into the thickest part when checking the temperature.
    • Remove roast from oven and cover with foil to rest for 15 minutes. Set roast on a cutting board and slice between each rib evenly to cut pork chops.
