STEP 1: Take the rib of beef out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 2 hours.
STEP 2: Rub both sides of the rib with coarse salt and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
STEP 3: Prepare the barbecue by lighting the charcoal and let it burn until nice coals are formed.
STEP 4: Sear the rib of beef on the barbecue for about 3 minutes on each side over high heat.
STEP 5: After searing, reduce the heat and let it cook an additional 7 to 8 minutes on each side.
STEP 6: Avoid piercing the meat while cooking to retain the juices, and turn it gently.

The cooking of the rib of beef on the barbecue is an exciting process that requires attention and technique. By starting with a good piece of meat, you lay the groundwork for a flavorful dish. Do not underestimate the importance of resting your meat, as it contributes to tenderness and taste.
During cooking, timing is crucial. For rare meat, only a few minutes are needed on each side, while a medium cooking will require a bit more time in contact with heat. Keep an eye on the coals to ensure even heat.
Finally, serving the rib of beef is just as critical. A good presentation of your dish will highlight the effort put in. Invite your guests to savor every bite, and feel free to share your tips and preferences for a memorable experience.
