Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (3-4 lb) beef roast (top round or sirloin)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional, for added flavor)
- 1/2 cup beef broth or red wine (for roasting pan)
Instructions
- Prepare the Roast: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels.
- Make the Rub:Â In a small bowl, mix together garlic, rosemary, olive oil, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard (if using).
- Season the Roast:Â Rub the mixture evenly over the surface of the beef.
- Roast:Â Place the beef in a roasting pan or oven-safe skillet. Pour the beef broth or red wine into the pan to keep the meat moist during roasting.
- Cook: Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes per pound for medium-rare (internal temperature 130°F) or 25 minutes per pound for medium (internal temperature 140°F).
- Rest:Â Remove the roast from the oven and cover it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes to retain juices before slicing.
- Serve:Â Slice the roast thinly against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
Notes
- For a deeper flavor, marinate the roast with the rub for 1-2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness.
