👉 Let’s Get Cooking!

🔥  Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
2️⃣  Pat the roast dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3️⃣  Rub the roast with olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and garlic.
4️⃣  Heat a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat with a bit of oil.
5️⃣  Sear the roast on all sides until browned (about 2–3 minutes per side).
6️⃣  Add the onion quarters around the roast if using.
7️⃣  Pour in the stock and wine (if using) to keep the meat moist.
8️⃣  Transfer to the oven and roast uncovered until the internal temperature reaches 130–135°F (54–57°C) for medium-rare (about 1½–2 hours, depending on roast size).
9️⃣  Remove from oven and tent loosely with foil.
🔟  Rest for 15–20 minutes to let the juices redistribute before slicing thinly across the grain.

🍽️  Serving Tips
Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or steamed greens. To make a quick pan gravy, reduce the drippings with a splash of wine or broth over medium heat.
