Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef for at least 4 hours, or overnight, will help tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
Sear the beef before roasting: Searing the beef will help to brown it and lock in the juices.
Use a low and slow cooking method: Roasting the beef at a low temperature for a long period of time will help to make it tender and flavorful.
Let the beef rest before carving: Letting the beef rest for 10-15 minutes before carving will help to redistribute the juices and make it easier to slice.
