Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Perfectly Roasted Eye of Round Beef.
Step 1
Start by gathering all your ingredients and letting the beef roast sit at room temperature for a bit; this helps it cook more evenly.
Step 2
While that’s happening, preheat your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 3
To ensure your roast stays juicy and cooks perfectly, tie it with cotton twine at 3-inch intervals.
Step 4
This little trick helps maintain its shape and moisture as it roasts.
Step 5
Next, place the roast on a rack in a baking pan, allowing air to circulate around it for even cooking.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Step 7
This flavorful blend is your secret weapon—rub it generously all over the meat, making sure every inch is well coated for maximum flavor.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to pop that seasoned roast into your preheated oven.
Step 9
Let it roast for about 60 minutes, or roughly 20 minutes per pound.
Step 10
Keep an eye on it, and when an instant-read thermometer shows a temperature of 120°F to 125°F (49°C to 52°C) in the center, it’s ready to come out.
Step 11
Once it’s done, carefully transfer the roast to a cutting board and loosely cover it with foil.
Step 12
This resting period of 15 to 20 minutes is crucial; it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each slice is tender and flavorful.
Step 13
After the roast has rested, slice it up and serve it warm, enjoying the delicious aroma and the satisfaction of a perfectly cooked meal.
