- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Heat a large (12-inch or larger) oven-safe cast iron or stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat. If using stainless steel, use canola oil to prevent sticking. This isn't necessary using seasoned cast iron.

- Please into the oven and roast for 5 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 350°F. Top the roast with 2 tablespoons of compound butter. Roast for an additional 10 minutes, top with the remaining butter and roast for another 5 minutes. The exact time will depend on the desired degree of doneness and size of your roast. Test using a digital thermometer and remove 5°F before the desired temperature.
