Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (3 pound) beef eye of round roast
½ cup dry red wine (merlot or cabernet sauvignon)
½ cup beef broth
2 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • Combine the oil, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic into a paste, then rub all over the roast. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour. Forty minutes into the hour, pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • On a baking sheet, place two sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil large enough to cover the roast. Place the roast on the foil sheets and transfer everything to the oven. Roast for 6 minutes per pound.
  • Remove from the oven. Fold up the foil so it wraps the roast then return it to the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 170 degrees F and roast for one hour. After an hour, check the internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer: 120-125 degrees F will yield a rare center, 130-140 degrees F will yield a medium-rare center, and 140-150 degrees F will yield a medium center.
  • When the roast is finished, remove it and set it on a cutting board to rest. Transfer any drippings from the roast into a saucepan, then combine with the red wine and beef broth. Bring to a simmer over med-high heat and reduce by 1/4; reduce heat to medium-low and whisk in the cubes of butter one at a time until incorporated into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
  • Slice the roast into 1/2 inch thick slices and serve with the pan sauce poured on top.

A PERFECT EYE OF ROUND ROAST BEEF



A Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef image

Without fail, my mother-in-law made an eye of round roast beef for Sunday dinner every week. While I tried to do so myself, I always had varying results. Sometimes, I overcooked it, and other times, it was too rare. I finally discovered this method that produced a perfect roast beef every time, that was medium, and even rarer in the center, and pleased all of our tastes. The key is to use an eye of round roast (or any well-rounded and even-shaped roast). The seasonings are up to you. I listed very basic seasonings, but I use different meat rubs at times, or whatever I'm in the mood for. While there are not enough pan drippings to make gravy, the juices make a lovely au jus to accompany the beef. This works for any size roast and couldn't be easier.

Tips:

  • Choose a good cut of meat: Eye of round roast is a lean cut, so it's important to choose one that is well-marinated and cooked properly to avoid dryness. Look for a roast that is evenly thick and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Marinate the roast: Marinating the roast helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Use a marinade that contains acidic ingredients, such as lemon juice, vinegar, or yogurt, to help break down the tough fibers in the meat. Be sure to marinate the roast for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  • Cook the roast slowly: Eye of round roast is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked slowly to tenderize it. Roast the meat at a low temperature (300°F) for 2-3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium-well.
  • Let the roast rest before carving: Once the roast is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.

Conclusion:

Marinated eye of round roast is a delicious and affordable meal that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can ensure that your roast turns out tender, juicy, and flavorful. Enjoy this classic dish with your friends and family!
