Garlic and Rosemary Studded Beef Roast – The Lemon Bowl®

This flavorful garlic and rosemary studded beef roast, made with juicy New York Strip, is ideal for serving a crowd and elegant enough for entertaining.

I fell in love with the strip roast after trying it during a visit to the Certified Angus Beef headquarters, which is the same cut of beef that the more popular New York strip steak comes from. Lean, tender, and full of flavor, I decided to use it for this Garlic and Rosemary Studded Beef Roast. The ultimate beef roast for serving on a special occasion, I love thinly slicing the leftovers for sandwiches, salads, and wraps.

Ingredients

• Beef roast: Like I said, I like using a strip roast, but you could use other roast options like an eye of round or top sirloin.
• Garlic: Pungent, aromatic, and nutty it coats and marinates the roast before and as it cooks.
• Olive oil: Helps to coat the roast in the garlic and spices.
• Kosher salt: The larger flakes of the kosher salt help it to stick to the meat, and it enhances the natural flavors.
• Oregano: Bold, earthy, and somewhat peppery flavor that coats the beef in the marinade alongside the garlic.
• Rosemary: Woodsy, earthy, and a bit lemony in flavor, it compliments the flavors of the garlic and oregano.

How to Make Garlic and Rosemary Studded Beef Roast

Start your garlic and rosemary studded beef roast by preparing your fresh rosemary into smaller sprigs. And take 10 garlic cloves and cut them into quarters length wise.

Then in a small bowl, use a microplane to grate 3 of the garlic cloves.

Drizzle in the olive oil, add the oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir well and set aside.

Next take your strip roast and use a paring knife to cut about 15 small slits an inch deep.

Insert a rosemary sprig and a quarter of garlic clove into each slit of the roast.

Then take your garlic and salt mix and rub it all over the roast so that it’s evenly coated.

Roast at 450 for about 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 325 and cook for about an hour to achieve a medium rare doneness.

Let rest for about 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Serve with additional fresh herbs along your favorite sides, and enjoy your Garlic and Rosemary Studded Beef Roast!
