3 teaspoons coarse-grained salt, divided |
1 tablespoon pepper |
2 cups reserved unbaked cranberry stuffing |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup water |
garnishes: fresh cranberries, fresh rosemary and thyme sprigs, fresh sage leaves |

2. Bake at 325° for 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven. Remove dish from pan; remove roast from dish, and invert. Place rib ends up on aluminum foil in roasting pan. Pour drippings from dish into roasting pan. Spoon 2 cups reserved unbaked cranberry stuffing into center of roast; cover with a 12-inch square of heavy-duty aluminum foil, and fold foil over tips of roast.
3. Bake 45 minutes to 1 hour more or until meat thermometer registers 155°. Remove foil, and let stand 15 minutes before slicing.
4. Pour pan drippings into a skillet, and cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil.
5. Stir together 2 tablespoons flour, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and 3/4 cup water. Whisk into pan drippings; cook, whisking constantly, 5 minutes or until thickened. Serve with roast. Garnish, if desired.
