Ingredients
- 4 pounds round roast fat trimmed
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic chopped
- 4 cloves garlic cut into slivers
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh Rosemary chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Take the roast out of the fridge at least 1 hour before cooking, no more than 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- In a small bowl combine the olive oil, chopped garlic, basil, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper.
- Cut slits into the roast with a sharp knife evenly around the roast, then insert the garlic slivers in the slits.
- Rub the garlic/herb mixture all over the roast evenly. Place the roast in a roasting pan with a rack in it.
- Place the roasting pan in the oven, uncovered, and roast for 15 minutes, reduce the heat to 325°F and roast for an additional 1 hour and 45 minutes for medium, or 2 hours for medium well done.
- Remove the roast from the oven, transfer to a cutting board or serving plate and let it rest for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing and serving.°

Notes
- If you think you might have some leftovers to enjoy, I suggest slicing pieces off the roast as you enjoy them to keep the leftovers intact. This way you can slice thin pieces off for leftover roast beef sandwiches!
- Store your leftover roast beef in an airtight container or large sealable freezer bag. It'll last 3-4 days. If you don't want to overcook your leftovers, you can enjoy the roast beef as a cold cut.
- To reheat roast beef, preheat the oven to 250F. Wrap the roast well with foil and place it on a baking sheet. Once the oven comes to heat, turn it off. Transfer the roast to the oven and let it sit in there for 10-15 minutes.
