 1-6 pound boneless beef rib roast
 4 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
 1 teaspoon coarse salt
 1teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
 1 tablespoon olive oil

  1. Combine pepper, shallots, salt, thyme and basil; set aside. Trim fat from roast. Brush with oil. Rub pepper mixture over surface of roast. Insert a meat thermometer into center of roast.
  2. For a charcoal grill, arrange medium coals around drip pan. Test for medium-low heat above pan. Place roast on grill rack over pan. Cover; grill until meat thermometer registers 135 degrees for medium-rare (1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours) or 150 degrees for medium (1-3/4 to 2-1/4 hours). For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Adjust for indirect cooking. Grill as above, except place roast in roasting pan.
