Ingredients

  • 2-3 pound sirloin tip roast
  • ½ cup beef roast rub
  • 3 garlic cloves

Instructions

  • Completely defrost the roast beef.
  • Drain and pat the roast dry with paper towel.
  • Cut each garlic clove into thirds. Cut slits into the beef about one inch deep and several inches apart. Push the garlic gloves into each slit.
  • Cover the entire roast in a dry rub. Be sure to coat the top, bottom, and sides of the roast.
  • Insert an oven-safe thermometer fully into the roast beef.
  • Place the roast into the pan with a tablespoon of olive oil or cup of beef stock (if desired).
  • Cook at 300 degrees F for about 75 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
  • Transfer meat to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Ribeye roast, rump roast, boneless chuck roast, and rib roast can be swapped in if that’s what’s in your freezer. Just know they may be a little tougher.
  • Add red wine, Worcestershire sauce, or even mushroom soup to the meat juices for a next-level pan gravy.
  • Our homemade beef rub is easy to make with a combination of spices like black pepper, kosher salt, and garlic powder, but you can use any rub of your choosing.
  • The best way to cook a roast beef and ensure that it stays tender is to use low heat, a long cooking time, and to let it rest before slicing.
