ingredients

• 1 (3 lb) beef eye round
• 2 teaspoons sea salt, to taste
• 1 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

directions

1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Season the roast with sea salt and black pepper and place in a roasting pan or baking dish with the fat side up. Do not cover or add water.
2. Place the roast in the preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 475 degrees F. Roast for 21 minutes (7 minutes per pound), then turn off the oven and let the roast sit in the hot oven for 2 1/2 hours. Do not open the door at all during this time. Remove the roast from the oven; the internal temperature should have reached at least 145 degrees F. Let rest for at least 20 minutes. Carve into thin slices to serve.
