Classic Beef Roast Recipe (Oven)
Ingredients: 3–4 lb (1.4–1.8 kg) beef roast (chuck, rump, or bottom round), 2–3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp kosher salt, 1–2 tsp black pepper, 2 tsp garlic powder, 1–2 tsp dried thyme or rosemary, 1–2 tbsp tomato paste (optional), 1 cup beef broth, and vegetables for roasting (onion, carrots, celery), chopped. Steps: 1) Heat oven to 325°F (163°C). Pat roast dry. Rub with oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs. 2) Sear in a hot skillet 2–3 minutes per side (optional but adds flavor). 3) Place roast in a roasting pan with vegetables. Add broth (and tomato paste if using). Cover tightly with foil or a lid. 4) Roast until tender: for chuck/round, plan ~2.5–3.5 hours depending on size. Check doneness by tenderness (fork should meet little resistance). 5) Rest 15–25 minutes. Slice against the grain. Optional: simmer pan juices to thicken into a gravy.

Timing & Doneness Tips
Roast doneness varies by cut. For tougher cuts (chuck/round), the goal is “fork-tender” rather than a specific internal temperature. If using a more tender cut (like rib roast), use a meat thermometer and cook to your preferred doneness, then rest before slicing. Always verify with a thermometer for food safety.

Quick Flavor Variations
Try a red-wine gravy: replace part of the broth with 1/2 cup red wine and simmer juices 5–10 minutes. For a herb-forward roast, add fresh rosemary and a smashed garlic head to the pan. For a smoky note, use smoked paprika (1 tsp) in the rub.
