Ingredients
Scale
Meat:
- 3.4 pounds (1.5 kilograms) sirloin tip roast
Spices and Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Additional Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup beef broth (optional)
Instructions
- Allow the sirloin tip roast to reach room temperature, approximately 30-45 minutes before preparing to enhance even cooking and tenderness.
- Craft a robust seasoning blend by combining olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, thyme, and minced garlic into a cohesive, aromatic paste.
- Thoroughly pat the roast with paper towels to eliminate excess moisture, then generously massage the herbal seasoning mixture across the entire surface, ensuring complete coverage.
- Preheat the oven to 325F (163C) and simultaneously prepare a skillet over medium-high heat for optional searing, which intensifies the meat’s flavor profile and creates a delectable caramelized exterior.
- Sear the roast systematically on all sides, dedicating 2-3 minutes per surface to develop a rich, golden-brown crust that seals in natural juices.
- Transfer the roasted meat to a rack positioned within a roasting pan, optionally adding beef broth to the bottom to maintain moisture during cooking.
- Roast the meat until the internal temperature reaches 135F for medium-rare or 145F for medium, which typically requires 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and loosely tent with aluminum foil, allowing it to rest for 15-20 minutes to redistribute internal juices.
- Slice the roast thinly against the grain to ensure maximum tenderness and serve immediately.
Notes
- Bring the roast to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking and tender results.
- Pat the meat completely dry before seasoning to help create a crispy, flavorful exterior when searing.
- Searing isn’t mandatory but adds incredible depth of flavor and beautiful caramelization to the meat’s surface.
- Invest in a meat thermometer for precise doneness, as cooking times can vary depending on roast size and individual oven characteristics.
