Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds beef roast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 4 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, parsley, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, whole grain mustard, and onion powder. Mix well to form a paste.
Place the beef roast on a cutting board and pat it dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Rub the herb and spice mixture all over the beef roast, ensuring an even coating.
Place the beef roast on a rack in a roasting pan. This will ensure even cooking and allow fat to drain away from the meat, maintaining Whole30 compliance.
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, avoiding any bones if applicable.
Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare or 145°F (63°C) for medium. Adjust the cooking time depending on your desired level of doneness.
Once cooked to your liking, remove the roast from the oven and tent it with aluminum foil. Let the beef rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the beef roast against the grain into desired thickness and serve immediately alongside your favorite Whole30-compliant sides.
