Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef

A Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef

I finally discovered a method that produces a Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef every time. One that’s cooked to my liking perfectly.

 

You can cook it to medium or even rarer in the center. The key is to use a well rounded and evenly shaped roast!

I like to use an eye of round 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.
