INSTRUCTIONS
The roast is best if prepared 8-48 hours ahead.
When ready to cook the roast, heat oven to 200°F.
Spray a V-rack (that will fit in a large roasting pan) or a wire rack (that will fit in or across a rimmed baking sheet) with nonstick cooking spray.
Leave the twine in place and score (cut slits across) the fat-cap with a sharp knife.
Generously season roast with kosher salt and pepper and place the roast, fat-cap up, on the prepared V-rack or wire rack.

If time allows, place the prepared roast, uncovered, in the refrigerator overnight or up to 48 hours before roasting. This will allow the salt to penetrate the meat more thoroughly and will improve browning.
When ready to cook the roast, remove it from the refrigerator 1 hour before cooking.
Sprinkle with more kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder and smoky paprika.

Place the roast in the oven and cook until the center of roast registers 115°F. Begin checking the internal temperature at 3 hours and then every 15 minutes, thereafter, until it reaches the desired temperature.
Turn off the heat and leave the roast in the oven until it reaches 125°F (rare) on an instant-read thermometer, 130°F (medium-rare), 135°F (medium).
Remove roast from the oven and tent loosely with foil. Allow it to rest 15-30 minutes.
Meanwhile, set the oven to 500°F.
About 10 minutes before serving, remove the foil, sprinkle the roast with freshly ground black pepper and place the roast back in the oven. Cook until it is beautifully browned and a little crisp on the outside.
Transfer the roast from the oven, cut the twine holding it together and remove the bones.
Serve immediately Homemade Horseradish Sauce or Brandy Peppercorn Sauce (see note for link)
