Poor Man's Prime Rib
Ingredients
1 - 3lb eye of round roast
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
Salt / pepper to taste
Preparation
Preheat oven to 500˚ F.
In a large roasting pan or baking dish, add the roast and season it with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. DO NOT cover the roast.
Place the roast in the oven uncovered and reduce the heat to 475Ëš F.
Bake the roast for about 7 minutes per pound (about 21 minutes for a 3lb. roast)
Turn the oven off but DO NOT open the door at all.
Let the roast sit in the off, closed oven until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145˚ F, for medium (about 2 hours 30 minutes). Again, DO NOT open the oven door at any time during the 2 and a half hour time period to check the temperature, not even a little bit.
Once at temperature, transfer the roast to a cutting board. With a sharp knife, carve it into thin slices. Plate and serve.
