Steps:

• Remove the beef from the fridge 1-2 hours ahead of time to let it approach room temperature for even cooking.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Set aside a roasting pan with a wire rack. (If you don't have a rack, you can strew thick cut onion and carrots underneath the meat instead.)
• Pat dry the beef with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Then rub with oil on all sides followed by the salt, pepper and optional herbs. Optional: insert wireless thermometer (see note).
• Put the beef in the prepared roasting pan with optional carrots and onions. Then roast for 15 minutes at 450°F.
• Reduce heat to 325°F and continue cooking for 60-90 minutes more, or about 20 minutes per pound. It's done when the internal temperature reaches 125°F as measured with an instant or wireless thermometer.
• Optional: Halfway through cooking, baste the meat by spooning pan juices on top. (If there aren't many juices, add 1/2 cup of water or broth to the pan.)
• Remove the roast from the oven. Tent with aluminum foil to keep warm and rest for 15 minutes to let the juices redistribute through the meat.
• Slice thinly crosswise against the grain to serve. Save the pan juices for gravy or serve au jus.
