• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp cornstarch (if a thicker jus is desired)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Roast:
   • Dry the roast; let the roast sit out for 1 hour (this enables the roast to come toward room temperature, which means a better searing process).
   • In a bowl, mix all the dry spices.
   • Brush the roast liberally with olive oil (or melted butter).
   • Use all the dry rub to coat the roast evenly, rubbing it in to create a crust.
2. Chill (This Is Optional If You Want A Stronger Flavor):
   • Cover seasoned roast with plastic wrap and sit in the refrigerator overnight so flavors can fully soak in.
3. Preheat Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
4. Roast
   • Place the roast, fat side facing up, on a roasting rack in a shallow pan.
   • At 15 minutes, turn the oven down to 325°F (163°C) to roast further at 450°F.
5. Cook 15–20 minutes per pound, or until:
   • Rare: 120–125°F internal temp
   • Medium-rare: 130–135°F
   • Medium: 140–145°F
   • Avoid overcooking; use a meat thermometer.
6. Rest the Roast:
   • Take it out of the oven and tent with foil.
