Butterflied Beef Eye Roast Recipes

TENDER EYE OF ROUND ROAST

Steps:

• Combine the oil, salt, pepper, thyme and garlic into a paste, then rub all over the roast. Set aside at room temperature for 1 hour. Forty minutes into the hour, pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, place two sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil large enough to cover the roast. Place the roast on the foil sheets and transfer everything to the oven. Roast for 6 minutes per pound.
• Remove from the oven. Fold up the foil so it wraps the roast then return it to the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 170 degrees F and roast for one hour. After an hour, check the internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer: 120-125 degrees F will yield a rare center, 130-140 degrees F will yield a medium-rare center, and 140-150 degrees F will yield a medium center.
• When the roast is finished, remove it and set it on a cutting board to rest. Transfer any drippings from the roast into a saucepan, then combine with the red wine and beef broth. Bring to a simmer over med-high heat and reduce by 1/4; reduce heat to medium-low and whisk in the cubes of butter one at a time until incorporated into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
• Slice the roast into 1/2 inch thick slices and serve with the pan sauce poured on top.

ROLLED RIB-EYE ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using a serrated knife, slice off top quarter of garlic, exposing as many cloves as possible. Place garlic, cut-side up, on a piece of parchment-lined foil. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil, wrap tightly, and roast until cloves are tender, about 40 minutes. Let stand until cool enough to handle.
• Squeeze garlic to push out cloves; transfer to the bowl of a food processor. Add parsley, sage, vinegar, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange roast on a large cutting board, fat-side down, with short end toward you. Holding a long, sharp knife parallel to (and about 1 inch above) cutting board, make a shallow cut along length of roast, stopping about 1 inch from edge. Open roast to the side, and continue slicing until about 1 inch from next edge. Open to same side again, and continue slicing until roast is completely flat. Season meat all over with salt and pepper. Spread all but 2 tablespoons of garlic-herb mixture over meat. Roll meat up, starting from left side. (Fat cap should end up on top of roast.) Tie at 2-inch intervals with kitchen twine. Rub outside with remaining garlic-herb mixture. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour (or refrigerate, covered with plastic, overnight; bring to room temperature before cooking).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place meat on a rack in a roasting pan and roast, rotating pan once, until meat is golden brown, 40 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees and continue roasting until a thermometer inserted in thickest part reads 125 degrees, 50 to 60 minutes. Let rest at least 30 minutes before slicing.

BUTTERFLIED BEEF EYE ROAST

Steps:

• Slice the roast down the middle, open it, and lay it flat in a shallow baking dish.
• In a small bowl combine the remaining ingredients and pour the mixture over the roast.
• Cover and let the meat marinate for at least 12 hours. Turn the roast occasionally.
• Remove the roast from the marinade, discard the marinade, and place the roast on a rack in the broiler pan.
• Broil the roast 5 to 7 inches from the heat, turning occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes or until desired degree of doneness.
• Remove from oven, cover with foil, and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
• Transfer to a serving platter, spoon any juices over the top, and serve.
