Mom's Roast Beef image

This is my mother's recipe and she swears you should follow it as listed if you want a fool proof result of juicy, tender, medium rare roast beef. It is my Old Man's favorite.

Categories     Roast Beef

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 lbs eye of round roast
1/4 cup soft butter
3/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • I am estimating the ingredient amounts. It really depends on the size of the roast you want to cook. I used a 5.5 lb roast last time and it came out perfect.
  • Rinse and pat dry roast.
  • Cover all sides of roast with coat of butter. Use as much butter as required to cover.
  • Pat all sides of roast with flour. Use as much flour as required to cover.
  • Cook roast in 325 degree oven for 1 hour.
  • Remove roast, cover with foil and let sit for 20 minutes.
  • To make gravy (recommended), spoon of fat from pan drippings.
  • Put pan over heat and mix in 1/3 cup flour and salt (to taste). Use a slotted spoon to scrape the pan and combine in pan drippings from the roast.
  • Mix in water and flour and continue stirring and adding water and flour until gravy reaches desired thickness.
