Ingredients

• 3 pounds Boneless beef roast (choice cut like ribeye or sirloin)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme leaves, chopped
• 4 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels. This helps the herb crust adhere better.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, and olive oil. Mix well to create an herb paste.

Step 4

Place the beef roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush it all over with Dijon mustard, ensuring it's completely coated.

Step 5

Season the beef with salt and pepper evenly on all sides.

Step 6

Spread the herb paste over the mustard-coated beef, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 7

Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the herb crust. This will create a nice, crusty coating.

Step 8

Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, avoiding any bone if using bone-in cuts.

Step 9

Roast the beef in the oven for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the thermometer reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, or just a bit longer for your desired doneness.

Step 10

Remove the roast from the oven and cover it loosely with aluminum foil.

Step 11

Let it rest for 15-20 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat.

Step 12

Slice the beef thinly against the grain. Serve warm with your choice of low-carb sides.
