Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef roast (preferably ribeye or sirloin)
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage
- 4 whole garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Pat the beef roast dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, ensuring a nice crust during roasting.
Step 3
Prepare the herb mixture by finely chopping the rosemary, thyme, parsley, and sage. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the chopped herbs and garlic with the olive oil, salt, and black pepper to form a paste.
Step 5
Place the beef roast in a large roasting pan. Using your hands, rub the herb mixture all over the roast, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 6
Roast the beef in the preheated oven for about 90 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time according to your preferred level of doneness.
Step 7
Once cooked to your preference, remove the roast from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring tenderness.
Step 8
Slice the beef roast against the grain and serve immediately with your favorite Paleo side dishes.
