Our herb-crusted roast beef makes a superb centerpiece for special occasions and dinner parties. The dish takes just 20 minutes to prepare\u2014simply apply the wet and dry rubs to your beef roast and let it bake for a couple of hours. The short amount of prep gives you time to work on sides and salads, or just take a breather and enjoy a batch cocktail<\/a> with the rest of the group.<\/p>\n This recipe calls for rump roast, one of the best cuts of meat<\/a> for affordable, hassle-free meals. It’s economical, generally available at your local butcher or grocery meat counter, and a standard for many roast beef recipes<\/a>. No need to splurge on something more expensive, but this will still taste like a million bucks! Enjoy the aromatic, slow-cooked herb-crusted beef roast whenever the occasion demands something special.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0F. Place the beef roast, fat side up, in an ungreased roasting pan. Stir together the garlic, mustard, lemon juice, oil and Worcestershire in a small bowl. Pour the mixture over the roast. Stir together the parsley, basil, salt, pepper, tarragon and thyme in a separate small bowl. Rub the mixture over the roast.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Let the beef come to room temperature while the oven preheats so the meat will cook more evenly once it hits the heat.<\/p>\n Bake the roast, uncovered, 1-3\/4 to 2-1\/4 hours or until the meat reaches your desired doneness. For medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135\u00b0; for medium, 140\u00b0; for medium-well, 145\u00b0.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Every kitchen should have a trustworthy meat thermometer<\/a>. The ThermoWorks Thermapen is always a top choice.<\/p>\n Transfer the cooked roast to a warm serving platter. Let it stand for 10 to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Let the meat rest before slicing so the juices redistribute, making for a juicier slice and better-textured meat.<\/p>\n Pour the pan drippings and any loosened brown bits into a measuring cup. Skim the fat, reserving 2 tablespoons fat. In a large saucepan, whisk together the flour, bouillon and 1 cup water until smooth. Gradually stir in the drippings, the reserved 2 tablespoons fat and the remaining water. Bring the mixture to a boil. Cook and stir for two minutes or until thickened.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> To ensure a lump-free gravy, add the liquid gradually and stir or whisk constantly until the gravy comes to a boil. You don’t have to worry about lumps once the gravy reaches a boil and thickens.<\/p>\n Slice the roast to your desired thickness. Serve the sliced beef with the gravy.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em>\u00a0Once you learn to\u00a0cut steak the right way<\/a>, you can apply that to other beef cuts like your roast beef. Most important: Always cut it against the grain.<\/p>\n To store your roast beef with herb crust, first let it cool to room temperature (don’t leave it out more than two hours, however). Wrap it tightly in aluminum foil or storage wrap, then place it on a baking pan. You can then store it in the refrigerator or the freezer.<\/p>\n You can store your roast beef in the fridge for two to three days or in the freezer for two to three months.<\/p>\n You want to reheat your herb-crusted beef roast gently so you don’t dry out those precious juices. Place your desired slices of beef in an oven-safe dish, and add drippings, broth or water to the pan\u2014just a few splashes will help the meat stay juicy as it heats. Cover the dish, and reheat the beef in a 300\u00b0 to 325\u00b0 oven until just warmed.<\/p>\n If you’re starting with frozen roast beef, let it first thaw in the refrigerator, then follow the directions above.<\/p>\n This recipe already uses a great blend for the roast beef herb crust, but you can add other woodsy, woody dried herbs like oregano and sage. You can also use cracked black pepper instead of regular ground pepper for a wonderful kick of spice and more texture in the crust.<\/p>\n The flour in our rub recipe helps create a crust on this roast beef. You can also place your beef on a roasting rack in the roasting pan. This will allow air to circulate more freely around the beef, leading to more crust development. Finally, you can sear your raw beef in 1 to 2 tablespoons oil in a very hot skillet until it’s browned on all sides, then proceed with the recipe starting at Step 1.<\/p>\n Our collection of steak sides<\/a> has you covered. Recipes like cheesy au gratin potatoes<\/a>, savory sauteed garlic mushrooms<\/a> and smooth Asiago mashed cauliflower<\/a> make excellent pairings with herb-crusted beef roast.<\/p>\n There are a myriad of great ways to use leftover steak<\/a> and roast beef in your recipes. Slice the beef and use it in salads, sandwiches, wraps and cooked grains. This particular beef roast would be excellent repurposed in our garlic and herb steak pizza<\/a>, steak tacos<\/a> or asparagus beef saute<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our herb-crusted roast beef is rubbed with a robust herb mixture and slow-baked for two hours.
