| 1 |
beef rib roast (8-10 lbs. bone in), fat trimmed to 1/8-inch thick |
| 2 |
Tbsp. chili powder |
| 2 |
tsp. ground cumin |
| 2 |
tsp. salt |
| 1 |
tsp. ground red pepper |
| 1 |
can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed |
| 1 |
medium tomato, chopped |
| 1 |
small red onion |
| 3 |
Tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped |

 |
Build a medium-low fire in a covered grill. Add coals every 45 minutes as necessary to maintain heat during cooking. Or preheat oven to 325ºF if roasting indoors. |
 |
Mix chili powder, cumin, salt and red pepper. Reserve 2 tsp. for salsa. Rub roast with remaining seasoning. |
 |
Cook roast, bone side down, 4-5 inches from heat for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or 16-20 minutes per pound in covered grill. |
 |
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine black beans, tomato, onion, cilantro and reserved seasoning mix. |
 |
Check doneness with meat thermometer inserted in center not touching bone or fat. Remove roast when temperature reaches 135ºF for medium-rare or 150ºF for medium doneness. Let roast stand tented with foil for 15 minutes before carving. |
 |
Serve sliced roast with the black bean salsa. |

| Can substitute chuck roast, arm roast, or shoulder roast for the rib roast. |
