Ingredients
- 4-5 pound beef ribeye roast bone-in or boneless
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh Rosemary finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Zest of 1 lemon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the beef roast on a rack inside a large roasting pan.
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and lemon zest.
- Rub the roast all over with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then spread the herb mixture generously over the entire roast, pressing it into the meat to create a crust.
- Place the roast in the preheated oven and cook at 450°F for 15 minutes to sear and create a golden crust. After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F. Continue roasting for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 125°F for medium-rare, 135°F for medium.
- Remove the roast from the oven and cover loosely with foil. Let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
- After resting, slice the roast and serve with your choice of side dishes. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a more pronounced crust, you can sear the roast in a hot skillet before applying the herb paste and roasting. Just make sure to pat the roast dry before searing to get a good crust! Don't skip the resting step! This keeps the roast juicy and tender.
- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
