When it’s done, you absolutely must let it rest for 20 minutes. If you slice into it immediately, all those glorious juices will run out like a crowd fleeing a hurricane. Cover it loosely with foil and let it sit. This is the perfect time to argue with your spouse about politics or why gravy is better than horseradish. Either way, the roast doesn’t care.
Now, for the carving: remove the ribs first—save those for gnawing on later, like a cartoon caveman—then slice the meat against the grain. Don’t slice with the grain or you’ll be chewing each piece for an hour. Use a sharp knife, not a butter knife you found in a drawer.
