Roast Beef Recipes Instructions:
Rub the roast beef with the cut side of the garlic halves, then rub all over with the the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and the seasoning blend, rubbing all over to coat thoroughly with
seasonings. Tuck the thinner end under to make the roast fairly uniform in thickness and tie to keep the roast in place. Wrap or seal in a food storage bag and refrigerate for an hour or two.
In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add shallots and cook, stirring, until the shallots are soft. Stir in the pepper, beef broth, pinot noir, and rosemary. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until reduced to about 1 1/2 cups. Strain, taste, and add salt, if needed. Set aside.
Heat oven to 425°.
Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the roast registers about 135° for medium rare or 145° for medium. Remove from oven and tent loosely with foil; let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
Bring the reduced sauce to a simmer; transfer to a bowl. The roast beef recipe is ready to serve ... enjoy the feasts !
