Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1 (6-8 pound) USDA Choice Beef Bone-In Rib Roast
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup prepared horseradish
1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped

- Meanwhile, make horseradish sauce. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayo, prepared horseradish, chives, garlic. Stir and add salt and pepper to taste.
