Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 5 pounds boneless ribeye roast
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning (crushed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a wire rack inside a roasting pan and set aside to prepare for roasting.
  2. Season the Roast: Brush the boneless ribeye roast evenly with olive oil. Then rub minced garlic, kosher salt, crushed Italian seasoning, and black pepper all over the surface of the meat to ensure full flavor penetration.
  3. Initial High-Temperature Roast: Place the seasoned roast on the wire rack in the roasting pan. Roast it at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes to develop a flavorful crust.
  4. Slow Roast to Desired Doneness: Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees for medium-rare (around 2 hours) or 140 degrees for medium (approximately 2 hours 15 minutes). Use a meat thermometer to check doneness accurately.
  5. Rest before Serving: Remove the roast from the oven and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Using a meat thermometer is essential to achieve the perfect doneness without overcooking.
  • Resting the meat is crucial to retain juices and enhance tenderness.
  • The Italian seasoning can be adjusted according to preference for herbs like rosemary or thyme.
  • Allow ample time for roasting as the slow cooking helps develop tenderness and flavor.
  • Olive oil helps the seasoning adhere and adds a mild richness to the meat crust.
