Pepper Crusted Roast Beef
Pepper Crusted Roast Beef is a seasoned beef eye round roast coated in a coarse black pepper blend and garlic powder, then oven-roasted to desired doneness. The coarse pepper crust adds a robust, spicy layer complementing the savory roast's tender texture inside.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon black pepper coarse ground
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 pounds beef eye round roast boneless
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Mix the black pepper, salt and garlic powder in a small bowl.
- Rub the roast with the oil then (with a dry hand) season the roast with the black pepper mixture all over the roast.
- Bake, uncovered, 2-1/2 to 3 hours.
- Use a meat thermometer to remove at the right time for desired doneness. If you want medium-rare remove roast at 135 degrees, for medium remove roast at 140 degrees and for medium-well remove roast at 145 degrees.
- Let sit for 15 minutes lightly covered with foil before slicing.
