Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). This allows for a slow and even cooking process.

  2. 2

    Season the Beef

    In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme. Rub the olive oil over the beef roast and then sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the roast, making sure to coat all sides.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Beef

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sear the beef roast on all sides until browned (about 4-5 minutes per side). This adds flavor and helps to seal in juices.

  2. 4

    Prepare Vegetables

    In a large roasting pan, add the chopped carrots, potatoes, and quartered onion. Toss them together to combine.

  3. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Place the seared beef roast on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan. Pour the beef broth and red wine (if using) around the roast, ensuring the liquid does not wash off the seasoning.

  4. 6

    Roast the Beef

    Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender and cooked to your desired doneness (145°F for medium rare).

Serving

  1. 7

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute. Serve with roasted vegetables.
