Ingredients
3 lb beef eye of round or sirloin tip roast
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and pat the beef roast dry with paper towels.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the roast on all sides until deeply browned.
Whisk together the brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, thyme, and black pepper in a small bowl until smooth.
Place the seared beef into a roasting pan and pour half of the glaze over it.
Cover with foil and roast for 2 hours.
Remove the foil, pour the remaining glaze over the beef, and roast uncovered for another 20-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare.
Remove from the oven, tent with foil, and let the beef rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Always allow the meat to rest; this allows the muscle fibers to relax and retain juices. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
