Ingredients:
- 3-pound beef eye of round roast
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat and Season: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Season the beef roast generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Place the seasoned roast in a roasting pan or baking dish, ensuring not to cover it or add water.
- High Heat Roasting: Put the roast in the preheated oven and promptly reduce the temperature to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Allow it to roast for 21 minutes, calculating approximately seven minutes per pound of meat.
- Slow Resting Process: Turn off the oven after the initial roasting period and resist the temptation to open the door. Let the roast rest in the residual heat of the oven for 2 1/2 hours. This slow resting process contributes to the development of a perfectly cooked, succulent roast.
- Final Touch: Carefully remove the roast from the oven, ensuring the internal temperature has reached at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Carve the roast into thin, elegant slices for a visually appealing presentation.
