How To Cook Melt In the Mouth Roast Beef (Easy Recipe)

Step 1: Remove Roast from Fridge
Take the roast out of the refrigerator and let sit until it reaches close to room temperature. This helps it cook more evenly later.

Step 2: Generously Season Exterior
Coat the entire exterior of the roast liberally with coarse salt. Then finish with plenty of cracked black pepper so speckles show visibly. You can also tuck some fresh rosemary sprigs underneath if desired.

Step 3: Slow Cook at 250°F
Preheat the oven to 250°F. Place the roast centered on a rack inside a roasting pan to promote air circulation. Cook 20 minutes per pound until the interior center reaches 125°F for medium rare doneness.

Step 4: Rest before Carving
Once removed from the oven, let roast sit at least 20-30 minutes so juices can settle back into the meat. This locks in amazing tenderness.

Step 5: Slice and Enjoy!
Carve into thin slices and prepare your tastebuds to enjoy extraordinarily succulent, deliciously seasoned melt-in-your-mouth roast beef!
