Would that be the standard mirepoix - celery, carrots, and onions or holy trinity? Raw or sauteed? Any wine or other ingredients?
For a standing rib, I use them raw, cut in a 1/2" dice. The mirepoix keeps the roast off of the bottom of the pan. I never used wine. It's a roast, not a braise. It will make it's own jus.

You two need to live next door to each other and both of you take care of me. The above language sounds like “Mars” talk. “mirepoix,basting,checking, standard mirepoix, celery, carrots, onions or “holy trinity” (you idiots - that is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit - you don't cook them :o). Raw, sauteed, wine, other..” See, “mirepoix” from Mars.
I know what you two are trying to do - trying to make me look bad :o)- Well, I am terrible at this and will always admit I don't know something because that's how I learn something new. Mirepoix, mirepoix, mirepoix, mirepoix, mirepoix, crap, crap. I THINK I'VE GOT IT! Crap, crap, crap!
