Roast Beef
Directions
- Remove roast beef from refrigerator, one hour prior to cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
- Pre-heat oven to 450°F. Pat the roast dry with paper towels.
- Mix the salt and pepper together then season liberally, covering all sides.
- Prepare the aromatics. Cut the carrot, onion and celery into even pieces. Mix in a bowl with garlic, vegetable oil, rosemary and thyme.
- Spread the aromatics evenly on a baking sheet. Then place a roasting rack on top of the aromatics. Next, place the roast beef on top of the roasting rack.
- Place the roast beef in the oven for 15 minutes. This will create a nice outer crust. Lower the temperature to 325°F and continue roasting for 45 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for a minimum of 15 minutes. Slice the roast across grain and enjoy!
