URL: https://thehealthyfoodie.com/french-roast-beef-cold-cut-style/

Ingredients

The roast

  • 1 roast French Roast (or top round or top sirloin roast), about 1.75kg | 3.85lb

The spices

  • 1 tbsp salt (Himalayan salt recommended)
  • 1 tbsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Mix all the spices in a small container and rub the mixture all over the roast.
  2. Cover the roast tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the next day, placing it in a rimmed plate to catch any leakage.
  3. Remove the roast from the fridge and take off the plastic wrap.
  4. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  5. Heat a few tablespoons of healthy cooking fat or oil in a heavy skillet over high heat.
  6. Sear the roast on all sides until a golden crust forms, about 1 minute per side.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake uncovered for about 12 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F to 160°F based on desired doneness.
  8. Once cooked, return the roast to the rimmed plate or baking dish and place it in the refrigerator uncovered to cool.
  9. After about an hour, cover the roast with plastic film and let it cool completely overnight.
  10. On the third day, transfer the chilled roast to a cutting board, remove the twine, and carve it as thinly as possible.
