Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the beef roast on a clean cutting board and pat it dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
Rub the entire surface of the roast with olive oil.
In a small bowl, combine the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, dried thyme, and onion powder.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the roast, pressing it gently to help it adhere.
Place the seasoned roast on a wire rack in a roasting pan. This allows the heat to circulate evenly around the meat.
Insert an oven-safe meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, being careful to avoid any bones.
Roast the beef in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, 145°F (63°C) for medium, or 160°F (71°C) for well-done.
Once the roast reaches your desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the roast against the grain into thin slices and serve warm with your favorite sides or gravy.
