Total: 2 hours 15 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

2 pounds beef roast
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 onion, sliced
2 carrots, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
Season the beef roast with salt, pepper, garlic powder, thyme, and rosemary, rubbing it all over the meat.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned.
In a roasting pan, place the sliced onions, carrots, and celery. Place the seared beef on top.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness (medium-rare: 130°F / 55°C, medium: 140°F / 60°C, medium-well: 150°F / 65°C).
Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Slice the roast beef into thin slices and serve with the roasted vegetables.
