Directions

Adjust oven rack to lowest position; preheat oven to 450°. In small bowl, stir garlic, oil, 3 tablespoons sage, and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper; rub over rib roast.
In roasting pan, toss carrots, parsnips, shallots, stock, cider and remaining ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper; place rib roast, bone side down, on top of vegetables and roast 20 minutes or until outside is golden brown. Reduce oven temperature to 350°; roast 1½ hours or until internal temperature of rib roast reaches 135° for medium-rare. Transfer rib roast to cutting board; tent with aluminum foil and let stand 20 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 145° upon standing.)
With slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to serving platter; sprinkle with remaining 2 teaspoons sage and tent with aluminum foil. Makes about 4½ cups.
Skim off and discard fat from juices in roasting pan; strain juices through fine-mesh strainer into serving dish. Makes about 1¼ cups.
Remove ribs from rib roast; carve rib roast lengthwise into 6 (¾” thick) slices. Serve rib roast over vegetables drizzled with some sauce and sprinkled with sage, if desired, along with remaining sauce.
