Note
Ensure the roast is at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking for more even heat distribution.
Use a meat thermometer to check doneness; internal temps of 125ðF is rare, 135ðF is medium-rare, and 145ðF is medium.
Resting the meat is crucial for retaining moisture; do not skip this step.
You can add garlic cloves and onion quarters to the roasting pan for extra flavor in the drippings.
