Ingredients

• 4 lb Beef roast (ribeye, top round, or sirloin)
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 4 Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp Fresh thyme, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1.5 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.5 cup Beef broth or water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the beef roast on a cutting board and pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps the slather adhere.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix well to form a paste.

Step 4

Using your hands or a brush, generously rub the slather mixture all over the beef roast, ensuring it is evenly coated on all sides.

Step 5

Place the slathered beef roast on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Add the beef broth or water to the bottom of the pan to prevent drippings from burning and to create a flavorful base for gravy, if desired.

Step 6

Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast. Roast the beef in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with the pan drippings, until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare or 145°F (63°C) for medium, about 1 to 1.5 hours depending on the size of the roast.

Step 7

Remove the roast from the oven and tent it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute before carving.

Step 8

Slice the roast beef thinly against the grain and serve with your choice of sides. Optionally, use the pan drippings to make a quick gravy for added flavor.
