5-6 pound beef roast
1 small onion, peeled & diced very small
2 Tbsp. minced, fresh parsley or 2 tsp. dry
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. fresh rosemary or thyme
Kosher salt & ground black pepper
Paprika
Place meat, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan about 2 hours prior to cooking; preheat oven to 500 degrees after 30 minutes. In a small bowl mix together the onion, parsley, garlic, rosemary/thyme. With a small, sharp knife, make 1-inch deep slits, about 1-inch long all over the meat, then with your hands, take blobs of the onion & spices mixture and push into the slits – use all the mixture.If you can’t get it all into the slits, just rub the rest all over the meat. Then sprinkle salt, pepper & paprika liberally all over.
Place in the 500 degree preheated oven for 45 minutes; turn oven off but don’t open the door! Leave in there for another 90 minutes. Take out, let sit for 10 minutes, then slice & serve.
