Remove the roast from the pan and add the onion slices and thyme sprigs. Place the roast on top of the onions, fat side up. Add the beef broth to the pan and place in the oven, uncovered. Roast until the beef is tender and registers an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees F, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Transfer the roast to a platter or cutting board and let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
• Meanwhile, use a slotted spoon to discard the onions and thyme sprigs. Place the Dutch oven over medium-high heat to heat the beef drippings. Combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the beef drippings and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully transfer to a gravy boat or decorative bowl.
• Carve the beef thinly and arrange the slices on large plates with rice on the side. Drizzle gravy over each portion and serve alongside of the Easy Rice.

EASY ROAST BEEF (DRY METHOD)

Steps:

• This works well for almost any size roast! I've used it for roasts as small as 3 and as large as 10, with nearly identical results. Best cuts to start with are large, tender cuts of beef - such as a rib or sirloin roast. Sirloin-tip, rump, rolled-rump, eye-of-round or top-round roasts will also benefit from this cooking method if they are graded prime or choice.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Season roast with salt and pepper, garlic salt, steak seasoning or whatever you like, including not at all. You can also add onions and/or carrots to your dish if you wish. They will be VERY well done, but I think they are delicious.
• Put the roast fat side down in a roasting pan or a Pyrex baking pan. I don't recommend using a rack under the meat, but that's just my preference.
• Put roast in oven for one hour. For a 7 PM meal, you can start it as late as 11 AM; for a 6 PM you can start it as late as 10 AM, and so forth. Or you can start it at whatever time you get up, which is what I usually do, since I leave for work at 8.
• At the end of the hour, turn the oven off, BUT DON'T OPEN THE OVEN DOOR! If there are going to be people in the house during the day, I put a note on the oven door saying DO NOT OPEN.
• About an hour before your meal, turn the oven back on to 375 degrees for 45 minutes. I usually put my potatoes, wrapped in aluminum foil, in at this time. At the end of the 45 minutes, take the roast out, and let it stand for 5 to 10 minutes. It's going to look burnt, but the meat will be wonderful! The pan drippings make great gravy, too!
• Carve and enjoy!

EASY EYE ROUND ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Sprinkle all sides of 4 lb. eye of round roast evenly with salt. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate 6-18 hours. The longer you let it sit the more tender it will become. But don't let it go over 18-24 hours.
• Remove roast from refrigerator and allow to come to almost room temperature,.
• Preheat oven to 225 degrees F.
• Pat roast dry with paper towel.
• Cut deep slits into roast and stick in slivered pieces of garlic.
• Rub with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle all sides evenly with pepper.
• Heat remaining oil in large, heavy bottomed pan (I just use my shallow roaster with rack).
• Sear roast until browned on all sides, 4-5 minutes per side. Should create some good fond.
• Transfer roast to wire rack in shallow roaster pan.
• Use meat-probe thermometer and set it for 125 degrees.
• Roast until meat-probe thermometer inserted into center of roast registers 120 degrees for medium-rare, 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours, or 130 degrees for medium, 1 3/4 to 2 1/4 hours.
• Turn oven off; leave roast in oven, until meat-probe thermometer registers 130 degrees for medium-rare or 140 degrees for medium (this can take as little as 15-30 minutes longer).
• Transfer roast to carving board and let rest 15 minutes.
• Slice meat crosswise as thinly as possible and serve with creamy horseradish.

EASY ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a roasting pan with olive oil spray. Set aside.
• Rub the beef on all sides with the oil. Sprinkle with the Chili Powder. Using your fingertips, gently press the Chili Powder so it adheres to the beef. Transfer the beef to the roasting pan. Put the onion, carrots, and celery around the beef.
• In a small bowl, stir together the wine and Worcestershire sauce. Pour over the beef.
• Bake for 1 hour 30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the beef registers almost the desired doneness. If the beef begins to dry out during cooking, baste with additional wine. Don't use the drippings for basting. Leaving the pan juices in the pan, transfer the beef to a cutting board, retaining the pan juices. Let stand, lightly covered with aluminum foil, for 10 to 15 minutes to continue cooking. Thinly slice the beef. Arrange on a platter.
• Meanwhile, skim the fat from the pan juices or remove the juices with a bulb baster and discard the fat. Stir the salt into the pan juices. Spoon over the sliced beef.
• Cook's Tip on Beef Temperatures
• Use a meat thermometer or an instant-read thermometer to determine the internal temperature. To be safe, cook beef to at least 160°F. For well-done, cook to 170°F.
• Cook's Tip on Separating Fat from Pan Juices
• A gravy separator, which looks like a measuring cup with a spout coming from the bottom, makes it easy to remove the fat from pan juices. Pour all the pan juices into the separator. After the fat rises to the top, simply pour the fat-free juice out of the bottom until the fat layer falls to the level of the spout. Discard what remains in the separator.
