Classic Roast Beef – Juicy, Tender, and Packed with Flavor
🍽 Ingredients (Servings: 6–8)
  • 3 to 4 lb beef roast (top round, eye of round, or sirloin tip)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup beef broth (for the roasting pan)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat and Prepare the Meat:
🔥 Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Let the beef roast sit at room temperature for 30–45 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels.

2️⃣ Season the Roast:

3️⃣ Roast High, Then Low:
🥩 Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour beef broth into the bottom of the pan. Roast at 450°F for 15 minutes, then reduce oven to 325°F (163°C) and continue roasting for 60–75 minutes or until internal temp reaches:

  • 125°F for rare
  • 135°F for medium-rare
  • 145°F for medium

4️⃣ Rest the Meat:
⏲ Remove roast from oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 15–20 minutes before slicing. This allows juices to redistribute.

5️⃣ Slice and Serve:
🔪 Slice thinly against the grain. Serve with pan drippings, gravy, or horseradish cream.
