Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Beef roast — Choose a tender cut of beef, such as ribeye or tenderloin, for the best results. Make sure to let the beef come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra kick of heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mixture.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of spices used in the marinade.
  • Letting the beef rest after cooking allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
  • Serve the roasted beef with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
  • Leftover roasted beef can be used in sandwiches or salads for a delicious next-day meal.
